What Our Customers Are Saying

  • Maryam B

    "I enjoy having coffee at Dukes with my colleagues and friends. The atmosphere is friendly, and the options are great. However, the tables are often sticky, possibly due to the material. Adding table covers could improve the experience!"

  • Alyssa J

    "I walked here for the picture of the pancakes with fruit and ended up getting the avocado. Zero regrets, had no idea what I was ordering but the colours on the plate the flavours and the textures were all top notch. Pretty sure my juice was also fresh squeezed. Happy surprise :)"

  • Ally V

    "I have been a customer of Dukes for years and I have seen it getting better and better. They keep upgrading their menu and aiming to improve every time, the presentation of the food is amazing, staff are always friendly and welcoming. The head chef has done catering for a few of my events and the results are always outstanding. Do yourself a favour and visit Dukes Cafe!!"

  • Jesse Wilson

    Walked past this place nearly everyday and never been in. Finally stopped in for breakfast and was very impressed. Affordable, very friendly staff and turn around time for food was brilliant. Had barely sat down at the table and the coffee arrived, and by the time I'd had 2 sips the food had followed. I highly recommend giving these guys a visit.
