About this space

Behind the café's charcoal exterior sits a private, open-air courtyard on soft white pebble stone, framed by palms and timber fencing. It's a genuinely spacious setup — white communal tables and benching that can be arranged to suit different group sizes, with plenty of room to move.
In the evening, the space is quiet and private, lit by warm light spilling from the dining room windows and kept comfortable with outdoor patio heaters. Being enclosed by the surrounding fencing and brick, it feels well tucked away from the street despite being right in the middle of Caulfield North.
The courtyard connects directly to the indoor dining room through French doors, so guests can move easily between the two. This makes it a good fit for functions that want both an indoor base and outdoor space — long lunches, evening bookings, or full venue hire where guests can spread across both areas.
