Why customers choose us
What makes As Quoted stand out
01
Warm Up on a Cold Day
Customers hire As Quoted to provide genuine comfort and warmth through nourishing food and drink, particularly on cold days. The bone broth and hot beverages fulfill a functional and emotional need for restoration that goes beyond a typical café stop.
“Loved the food here, I had bone broth with fresh grated ginger and turmeric, fresh banana muffin (divine) and big protein breakfast.”
02
Reliable Gluten-Free Eating Out
Customers with gluten sensitivities hire As Quoted as a dependable place to eat without compromise, since the entire menu is gluten free. This removes the anxiety of navigating cross-contamination risks that exists at most other dining spots.
“Fully gluten free spot. Great bagel, good waffle, mediocre potatoes. Price point is good, minimal seating available.”
03
Feel Known by Your Café
Customers hire As Quoted to experience the kind of personalised, attentive service that makes them feel genuinely recognised rather than just another order. The staff's attention to individual preferences builds a sense of belonging in a neighbourhood setting.
“He remembers that I usually bring my own cup and is so detail-oriented that he'd wait until I got there to make my cappuccino to keep it hot.”

The little things that matter
Beyond expectations
A Space That Feels Cared For
Guests consistently notice that the environment is clean and thoughtfully maintained, giving the impression that the team takes genuine pride in their surroundings.
Baristas Who Remember You
The staff pay close attention to returning customers — including recalling personal preferences like bringing your own cup — so that each visit feels personal rather than transactional.
Timed-to-Order Preparation
Rather than letting a drink sit and cool, at least one barista waits until the customer arrives before pulling the espresso shot, ensuring the cappuccino is served at the right temperature and consistency.
Thoughtfully Sourced Ingredients
Menu items like bone broth are prepared with fresh, whole ingredients — grated ginger and turmeric added in-house — rather than relying on pre-made or shelf-stable shortcuts.
A Fully Gluten-Free Kitchen
The entire menu is gluten-free, removing the need for guests with dietary sensitivities to ask questions or make special requests — inclusivity is built in by default.
Neighbourhood Anchor Energy
The restaurant fills a genuine gap in its local community, offering a calm, tucked-away spot that residents feel the area genuinely needed — a sign the business was opened with the neighbourhood in mind.
Warm Options on Cold Days
Hot bone broth is available to enjoy in-house or packaged to take away, giving guests a practical, comforting option that suits both a sit-down visit and a busy day on the go.
Tips for your first visit
Make the most of your visit
Try the bone broth
Order the bone broth with fresh grated ginger and turmeric for a warming, nourishing drink on a cold day.
Fully gluten free menu
Everything on the menu is gluten free, making this a reliable spot if you need to avoid gluten entirely.
Bring your own cup
The staff will accommodate your reusable cup — one barista even waits until you arrive to pour your cappuccino so it stays hot.
Seating is limited
The space is small and cozy with minimal seating, so plan accordingly if you're visiting with a group.
Great for sharing dishes
Ordering a couple of items to share — like a scramble and a broth — works well given the portion sizes and price point.
Order coffee with confidence
The cappuccinos are consistently well-made with proper foam and the right consistency, according to regular visitors.
