Delightful cafe in the middle of the city. The staff were welcoming and helpful as soon as I walked in. The cafe offered delicious food and drinks. The place was ideal for taking a leisurely break from the busy city outside because of its overall peaceful and laid-back atmosphere. To sum up, this cafe is a must-go to for anyone in the neighborhood searching for a cozy place to grab a quick snack or hot beverage. I will most certainly return.

I took my ELLA Group for morning tea, they were all Hamilton locals but they didn't know that there is a Coffee Shop and clothing shop inside the corrugated sheep.. Staff are very hospitable and helpful. Cheers
