In The Community
We believe that we all have a responsibility to give back to local communities and to help and support those that are in need. We have started a programme called XXX at our cafe which we donate $1 from all featured dishes on our menu.
The money from these dishes are donated to pre-selected local charity to enable them to cover the cost of a hot, nutritious meal for those in need.
We have created this programme to give our customers the option to actively participate without feeling pressured to do so. We chose to incorporate donation into all of our featured signature dishes and daily specials.
