" Had a brunch date here, and it lived up to the hype! The menu had a wide variety of vegetarian and pescatarian dishes. I decided on the avocado toast with a poached egg, and it was heavenly! The flavors were beautiful! My only downside was that we had to wait for a table since it was packed, but it was worth it in the end. " (*Curated Review*)

The ambience was warm and cozy, ideal for catching up with friends. The staff were attentive, and my coffee cup never went empty. I can't wait to return! " (*Curated Review*)

" Effy's Cafe is the perfect place for a casual meal! I ordered the eggplant patty sandwich, and it was delicious! The staff were attentive and kind, making the experience enjoyable.

" I was genuinely impressed with the quality of food at Effy's. Their Mediterranean offerings are authentic, and I really enjoyed my grilled fish platter. It was fresh and turned out to be a generous portion. The atmosphere is cozy, making this an excellent brunch spot. I’ll definitely return soon and try their coffee! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was quite disappointed after my visit to Effy's Cafe. Although the ambiance was nice, the food didn't meet my expectations. I tried the shakshuka, and while it looked appealing, it lacked depth of flavor. The coffee, on the other hand, was nice and warm but not strong enough for my taste. While the servers were nice and attentive, I cannot say I would come back to try it again. " (*Curated Review*)
