Advice: Sit at the Communal Table or on the outside patio.

Loved the communal table in the center of the cafe with the bright red chairs as well as the cork light fixtures that hang above the table. Here you can dine solo or with friends, read a book, sip a glass of wine.

I sat at one of the tables on the side with my friend Pedro, we both admired the sense of design and sustainability with the high ceilings and wood paneling throughout. The magnet menu board (offers ease in menu changes) as well as the outside patio were both well designed.

Sangkak Iranian Flatbread

The food is local, sustainable, organic and free-range and is either made in house or by local producers. Pedro and I shared the tasty Sangkak Iranian Flatbread ($9) topped with garlic roasted portabello mushrooms and goats cheese.

Iced Espresso

Blackout Raspberry Cupcake

Food for the Gods

Strawberry Rhubarb Crumble

Each of us had an Iced Espresso ($2.45) and then we shared a few desserts including the Filipino inspired Food for the Gods ($1.75) square; the Strawberry Rhubarb Crumble ($3.25) tart and the Blackout Raspberry Cupcake ($2.75). The inventive menu was created by talented Chef Tina Fineza who put together a well thought out menu starting off with breakfast treats such as organic Yogurt and panini to Nutella on Brioche Toast to scrambled eggs. For lunch there is an assortment of panini, cold and hot sandwiches, salads such as the Commune Harvest Salad along with some share plates such as the Commune Hummous. After 5pm, for dinner you will find the Iranian Flatbread as well as a Lemon Roasted Rossdown Chicken that I am going to have on my next visit. The beverage lineup is equally impressive Annette Rawlinson put together a wonderful menu of wines and beer from this area and there are also many different hot and cold espresso beverages and tea. This is a place you are going to want to be morning, noon and night!
