Sentido

At Sentido, you can keep things simple with a cup of coffee or carry the coffee theme through to dessert. Choose beans for a pour-over, or try the coffee parfait, which brings together coffee jelly, coffee cake and mascarpone ice cream. One diner who tried it praised the distinct coffee flavour of the jelly and the combination with mascarpone ice cream and several kinds of nuts. The menu also describes coffee cake among its layers, making this a dessert for anyone keen to savour coffee in more than one form.

For a cup on its own, choose from the beans at the counter for a pour-over. You can also compare the deep-roasted house blend with a light-roasted single-origin coffee. Some visitors say they were able to sample the single-origin coffee before ordering. Whether you want to savour a morning cup or enjoy choosing your beans, there are options to suit.

Breakfast includes granola baked with spices, maple syrup and coconut oil, served with fruit. You can have it with yoghurt, milk or oat milk; one diner who ordered granola with a café latte at breakfast chose oat milk. For something lighter, there is buttered toast. If you’d prefer eggs, try the egg sandwich, made with plenty of egg mixed with a little mayonnaise and pink rock salt.

For a little something sweet with your coffee, options include whole-wheat banana bread and a rice-flour carrot cake, listed as vegan and made without wheat. Breakfast is served, and the café opens at 7:00 Monday to Friday and 8:00 on Saturdays. It works for a morning meal as well as a coffee-led break.
