Home ❤️

Back to school for some soon… but around here, every day is a school day. 🎓

Did you know Kelsick was once a school? Built in 1906, Kelsick Grammar School educated generations of local children - including a young Dave Williams, who probably didn’t realise at the time that he’d one day end up owning the place!

After years of neglect and facing demolition, Dave returned to Kelsick and gave the building a new chapter - restoring it to become the home of Impact, Kelsick Grammar co-working hub & meeting spaces, and of course, us!

So, while the school bells may have stopped ringing, Kelsick is still full of learning, ideas, conversations and the occasional coffee-fuelled lesson.

Turns out, you really can go back to school. ❤️☕️.

French toast, but make it fancy 🍒✨

Vanilla bean–soaked brioche, pistachio custard, sour cherry, pistachio granola & mascarpone. Add bacon? We fully support this decision.
