Good coffee served in takeaway containers The cream bun was OK, but I still have not found one like I had in my youth (To be fair, my wife not the same as when I was younger) Point of difference for this cafe is they serve a donut hole like thing with your coffee and is a good place to break up your retail therapy in an airconditioned shopping centre

Lab Kitchen is hands down the best spot for coffee in the Carnes Hill area. Their coffee is always consistent and tastes amazing every time. It's also very cost-effective compared to other places nearby. My kids absolutely love their decadent babycino and always beg me to get one for them! The friendly service and welcoming atmosphere make every visit a pleasure. Highly recommend!
