What recent reviews say

Lolla Paluza wins loyalty through freshly made waffles, rich ice cream, and a calm hideaway feel above Sea Park's street level. The owner runs the space daily and remembers regulars warmly; staff go the extra mile, and the space doubles as a quiet work spot or event venue with books and board games on hand.

Prices on the menu can be outdated, and some felt a recent waffle price hike or fruit quality didn't justify the cost, but most flag the portions as generous and the flavours as balanced rather than over-sweet. Best for people seeking a slower pace, not high-speed cafe culture.

Bröom draws crowds for its distinctive pastries, specialty lattes, and relaxed interior that works well for a casual hangout. Flaky strudels, macaroons, and matcha drinks earn regular praise, and service shines when staff are engaged. However, mains stumble (Sunday roast arrived fried, not roasted; pasta is forgettable), cakes sometimes taste stale, and prices lean high. A few staff members have been curt with guests, though others go the extra mile.

Reviewers consistently praise the cozy, calm setting and affordable fusion menu spanning udon, curry dishes, and burgers. Coffee is solid, pastries home-made, and staff attentive; a few note that portion sizes and consistency in dishes like chicken katsu can vary, but the overall value and welcoming vibe keep people returning.

Fluffed delivers consistent waffle and cake quality that keeps diners coming back, with standout matcha and specialty drinks. The space struggles with its own popularity: long queues, cramped seating, and noise are the price of admission, though staff respond quickly and will honour custom requests when they can.
