This cafe is a must try when you are in the area! Upon arrival we served with a delicious cappuccino and a mocha. We also got their turkish style iced latte and unique twist that’s definitely worth trying. Moving to the food, I tried Labne Turkish eggs for the first time and wow, poached eggs over creamy labneh. The menemen with fluffy eggs, tomato, and a spice that takes your tastebuds on a trip straight to Turkey was next-level.The chicken that was in the chicken shawarma was tender, juicy, and the herby creamy sauce was so good, it was topped with salad. It also comes with fries. The Salmon Benedict was also great.That creamy sauce paired with perfectly toasted bread and the poached egg. We finished the meal with a lovely hot turkish tea, the perfect finish to an amazing meal. The staff was incredibly welcoming and attentive, with the owner making it all the more special! If you're looking for a cozy spot with incredible food and a welcoming atmosphere, Miss Mat Cafe is a must-visit.
