I walked in a little frazzled as my wife had just given birth, and the first thing I noticed was how clean and bright the café felt—it instantly lifted my mood. I was warmly greeted by a lovely young lady who was polite and welcoming, and then looked after by a young man named Cooper. He couldn’t have been more than 15, but his manners and service really stood out. He was genuine, attentive, and carried himself with such professionalism that I found myself drawn to his positive energy. I was so impressed I ended up giving him a $5 tip—something I rarely do—because his service was simply amazing. Highly recommend XS Espresso Kotara, not just for the great coffee and atmosphere, but for the outstanding staff who make the experience memorable.

We have been back a few times and find the food to be on the more costly side in comparison to other places we have been. The potion sizes are large and the coffee is good. Often find that flavouring on the food such as spices and pepper are not on the menu

Food is so delicious! I especially love the Belgium waffles, and taro latte. The staff are super helpful, and nice.
