Excellent clean place with a great view. Omg, the breakfast was so good. You could have a big breakfast with as much streaky bacon as you wanted! There's museli, pastries, donuts, loads of fruit, tea coffee, juices, hot choc, even a pancake making machine. It's epic!!! I also loved how happy everyone in the dining area looked as they ate there breakfast. The breakfast runs until 10am weekdays and 10:30 in the weekend. I ended up taking away a huge bacon and hashbrown sambo for more snacking during the day, 2 days in a row.
