    Excellent relaxed vibe for a coffee and a chat, easy to stay on for a wine and some local music.

Their all-day breakfast is a winner, and the burgers are packed with flavor. Whether you're after a good coffee, a fresh smoothie, or a casual meal with friends, this spot delivers.

    A very friendly, relaxed cafe tucked away from the road. Walk down the pathway and enter a space which is colourful, arty and very welcoming. Eat the delicious cafe food either inside or out - you won’t be disappointed with the food or the ambience.

    First time at cafe Komodo in 38o temperatures and area was surprisingly cool although the noise level was a little too much but understanding with tables close. Ordering and service was exceptional with drinks served within a couple of minutes and food very soon thereafter. Staff were most obliging and the gf options were much appreciated with newly diagnosed coeliac grandchild. A very enjoyable birthday family lunch and we will be back. Also very close to another favourite Muratti cakes!

    Recently had a birthday function at Cafe Komodo, It s was very easy to organise with the manger, with lots of food options to cover dietary requirements and excellent food was served on the night, which everyone enjoyed. they were very flexible in making arrangements for bar service and a menu of drinks that suited my requirements. Everyone loved the unique venue decor, its a hidden gem that's very relaxed and versatile, great for gathering with music or breaking off to talk at tables throughout the garden. The staff are very friendly and efficient and happy to help with any questions, they're there if you need them but not in your way. So much good feedback from guests on having the party at the Komodo. I'd do it again and I'm a regular for a lunch or just a coffee, Thanks

    Retro diner with an all day breakfast menu with lunch and dinner choices. Fairly much a classic menu with alternative and vegan options. Great burger and fries, decent drink beer and wine options
