What a fantastic hidden gem! Great food and coffee. Wonderful warm and friendly service. Will definitely be back. It just keeps getting better... deliciously moist flourless orange cake with white chocolate frosting. Sensational cranberry and walnut sourdough...yummo. Absolutely sensational Canadian pancakes with bacon, egg and lashings of maple syrup. The eggs benny were delicious also. Check out the toasted fruit loaf. Yummo.

I've popped in to this cafe a few times and have loved getting a snack or a beautiful loaf of bread. Today I finally stopped in for lunch I really enjoyed my lunch, but more than that I have to say the service here is truly above and beyond. I've had his interactions with all the staff so far, but today was a standout. Not only did the lovely server (whose name was "B", I think) really help me choose from all the great options, but she went above and beyond. I got a bit of bad news and was trying to be subtle about my teary state. B came up and respectfully made me feel supported without making me feel embarrassed or intruding on my space.... To be honest she showed such kindness that I ended up bursting into tears all over again because it was so nice!! Thank you, B, for your act of kindness that really made a difference to my day I'll definitely be back!!

Hi, we had a lovely breakfast this morning at Cafe Viana. Both of us had the big breakfast and it was delicious and filling. The fresh orange juice was delicious and fresh, and I was charmed by the old fashioned milk jug that came out with my pot of tea! My husband who loves a good coffee was very happy! The service was fast, polite, friendly and they didn't mind having a chat which was lovely. We will be coming back again. Thanks for a lovely morning.

Dropped in for the best pies ever and some artisan bread. Unfortunately, the cafe itself was closed due to public holiday but you can still get the pies and bread at the shell service station attached. I tried the burgundy pie, which was amazing. Had some of the bread with soup for dinner.

I had the most delicious breakfast here, cooked with care and pride. I ordered the avocado, tomato, bacon and egg on toast. Nick offered me the freshly baked pumpkin bread for the base, served freshly sliced avo and crispy bacon, and presented the dish beautifully. The meal was inexpensive. I'll definitely have breakfast here again.
