On Pause

Reasonable price, portion wise is okay, not too much. Steak was good for its price tho, and the people here are v v nice! Would recommend, I seldom give 5 stars. But this is good

A cozy indoor pet friendly cafe hidden in plain sight along Lowland road. Decent coffee and food, will definitely come back for it but the price is on the high side given the neighbourhood area. Highlight for us was the indoor air conditioned pet friendly area which makes us much more comfortable with a frenchie. They have pets meal available too!

Love the food here. Tasty. Steak was handled well too. Usually you don’t really get pink steaks when u order a medium rare in a cafe. So very pleased with tat. The chimi sauce tt came with brighten it up! Coffee was not bad. Only complaint is that the cafe is open air as its pet friendly. So it can make the dining experience a tad stuffy. But overall, I would be back for the food.

My partner and I came here for a late lunch. Pesto linguine especially was excellent (barely pictured cos we already ate into it): rich and savory with light nutty aftertaste. Latte was delicious. Quiet and chill atmosphere, highly recommended! Staff are quick and friendly

We ordered three different types of pasta, and all tasted good. Laksa and Tomyum Linguine may look similar, but their tastes are totally different. They have both air-conditioned and non-air-conditioned seating; the non-air-conditioned area is next to the counter. The exhaust isn’t very strong, so the air gets quite hazy with cooking smoke and smells, but it doesn’t linger long. They do have pet food on the menu, though options are quite limited. The staff were very nice about customizing our pet’s food, as it has a poultry allergy.

Ordered PPP toast and the barramundi. Enjoyed both very much, though fish portion could be slightly more! But overall, quality of the food was considering how mediocre and average many cafes’ food can be. Mont blanc and Yuzu cloud drinks were great too. The only downside i would say is that it can get pretty warm if you get the seats that aren’t in the enclosed area, which also doesn’t have very strong aircon.

Cosy and unpretentious, one of our fave haunts both with and without our dog. We especially love the cheese toastie with tomato soup, barramundi, yoghurt, (and we rly miss the discontinued salmon). Prices are typical of cafes, but the food here is consistently satisfying and wholesome. It gets pretty busy with both humans and pets during weekend lunches but weekdays are fairly quiet. The team is always rly friendly and welcoming, and we also really enjoy the fresh air and relaxed vibe of the place.

Visited On Pause on a weekend afternoon and had a really enjoyable experience. From the moment we arrived, the staff were friendly, attentive, and helpful, which made our visit feel very welcoming. We had a large group of 12 and were able to secure a reservation easily. The team arranged for us to use the private space, which can comfortably fit about 18 people, so it was spacious and comfortable for our gathering. I didn’t manage to take photos of the food, but I ordered the prawn and avocado toast. The prawns were fresh, flavourful, and paired well with the toast. Overall, it was a pleasant and smooth dining experience. The service, ambience, and food all came together nicely, and I’d be happy to return or recommend this café to others.
