Weekends can get busy, so arrive early to secure your spot or be prepared to wait — word spread fast about this gem of a café. Alongside their main menu, Comes & Goes offers grab-and-go treats from the cabinet, including savoury delights like cheese scones and kimchi scones, along with the irresistible Whittaker's chocolate raspberry cake, a gluten-free favourite.
