These guys kindly let me come in after closing on a Friday night. I purchased some much needed home roasted coffee beans and a sneaky homemade vanilla slice... A+ for hospitality. The sweet offering was smaller than average and had a respectable $3 price tag. The whole thing was enjoyable, if not a little messy. The icing sugar ended up pretty much everywhere after consumption due to its severe dusting. The custard was pretty average and had a slight vanilla hint and a viscosity that was in keeping with successful freestyle eating. The pastry would have been fresh that morning and was still flaky, though sadly the buttery crunch had disappeared by the time I got to it. Altogether, not bad.
