Skinny Boy Jim, Aspendale

This morning's delicious cup of motivation is brought to you by Skinny Boy Jim.

It's not massive but it does the job, it always seems to be reasonably busy which I take as a sign that they are good at what they do.

I think they are well ingrained in the local community and I was impressed when after having been a few times I realised that they had a loyalty card and grabbed one and he stamped it for the previous couple of times I had been in as he recognised me. Now that is service!

I love the cute decor, these hanging wall planters give it such a nice feel. Also excuse my dodgy editing to try and keep people's faces private.

So incognito ;) ...lots of delicious treats on offer

On to the good stuff, the coffee. It is definitely a good quality cup of coffee here...my only disclaimer would be that those initial first couple of sips are quite strong. Not the 'it will put hairs on your chest' kind of strong, but it definitely takes a beat and then you get used to its sweet elixir and all is well in the world again. ;)

This is the large (flat white for moi) and will set you back $4.50.

While it is not as prominently positioned as other high street cafes I do feel as though it is worth seeking out if you are in the area.

Also I finally ventured out the back and there is a little outdoor seating area as well, would be great on a nice sunny day (don't let the picture fool you, it may look sunny but it was rather chilly this morning).

So there you have it, overall thoughts are this is a great little cafe and well worth checking out.

Let me know if there is anything else you would like to know.

Have a great day. x
