Re: Cafes in Tasmania
Hi All,
We began our trip to Tassie a week ago on the SPOT. A little rocky in mid journey. We thought of Lizzie as the dogs barked most of the night below us. (Coffee on the SPOT not up to C.S. standards.)
First coffee stop Bellas at Devonport as Cafe Inn-dulgence was shut due to holiday. Coffee was some Italian blend..very average and served long before the food which was also average and cold (should have been served hot.)
The next day we went to Cafe Inn-dulgence for lunch and were blown away yet again with great food and coffee. Even though the place was packed coffee and food arrived together and were excellent as always.
Next day Wynyard heading for Stanley. Lovey had mentioned Lady Bugs Cafe. Superb food and coffee. Thanks Lovey.
Back to Devonport two days later and Cafe Inn-dulgence again on our way to Hobart. (Petrol $1.26 a litre with Coles docket.Like WOW.) Our aim in Hobart was to visit Island Espresso, Villino Espresso and Oomph. So we did the coffee crawl punctuated by a visit to the museums.
At Island Espresso Dane greeted us warmly and served up a delicious double ristretto latte complete with fantastic art. The old dear at the next table wanted to know if a stencil was used to make the art work! The Mrs had an iced chocolate made from powdered chocolate which was extra good. As it was lunchtime we had tasty caesar salads.
Next stop Villino where Richard and his partner were working hard to serve a quality product to their customers. As it was afternoon tea time we had mouth watering strawberry custard slices and lattes which were terrific with great art work. Richard prides himself on serving a great coffee. Dane had tipped Richard off that we were there to check out his coffee as Dane and a friend were at Villino also.
On the way back to lodgings we stopped off at Oomph and I had a double ristretto latte and the Mrs another iced chocolate. (The Mrs is on a caffeine quota.) Once again served with passion and care by Azza.
We highly recommend all 3 cafes to C.S. members. Great coffee and food.
In 3 days time we will be in Launceston and will take another coffee cruise. Thanks to fellow C.S. for their reviews.
Herbie.
