The cute corner cafe, off Samford Road in Gaythorne, is the brainchild of Daniel Bowles (owner of Sister in Hawthorne) and Tiger Hsu.

Tables are perched beneath yellow striped umbrellas, where patrons and their four-legged companions can settle in for a well-brewed cup of coffee, supplied by Single O, along with a selection of light eats.
