Good was really good, a little overpriced for the French toast with Nutella drizzle but everything else was great. Lovely decor, great atmosphere, clean, and staff very helpful and welcoming. Baby change was amazing and provided a clean, safe space to change son. Great baby change layout of unit and nappy bin (which is a highlight when other places have it across the room and you have to juggle baby, nappy, clothes etc, so it matters when it's right).

First time in Laverockha and it will definitely not be the last. The interior is wonderful, cosy and tidy, and from the name of the cafe to the pictures on the walls there is a clever connection to the history of the local community, something that adds to the character of the place. Kirsty was super kind with us and she kindly shared some very interesting information about the cafe and the history of the town. The food was delicious and so was the coffee as well. I’d very highly recommend Laverockha!
