Was nearby for an appointment with my daughter and the reviews confirmed I needed to check it out. It is very small but the food we both got was stellar - my daughter was talking about it all the way home and up until her bed time. A very nice man served us and he really seemed to enjoy his work which, I think, says not only a lot about him but the company he works for. Out of my way to visit regularly, but will definitely be back when over that side again.

Well what can I say, it’s a lovely place . Reached here early in the morning, had a seat while I sipped my mocha ,slowly biting Away my croissant. The vibe , the slow music playing in the background and the silence of the morning was something that truly calmed me. Great place to start your day I guess!

I had an amazing coffee at this café, and the waiter Rob is a man who, besides preparing excellent coffee, gave us a class on specialty coffee without asking for anything in return. Rob radiates spectacular energy and has a unique way of seeing life and making coffee. Congratulations, Killian’s Café!

Quite lovely, the prices are reasonable and the staff are friendly and polite! I was thrilled with the drinks too, they were delicious. Even going early in the morning when it was a bit quiet the guy behind the counter had my order ready in what felt like two seconds. Well worth stopping into if you’re around the area
