CRAVE COLLECTIVE
Crave café is owned by a collective. If you’re over 60, you’ll understand the hippie potential of this term. If not, it’s like this:
A few of us got together (over food and wine) and decided we wanted to be good neighbours and live in / help create a great neighbourhood. We chipped in and started Crave Collective, a charitable organisation -that means that all of our profits go t

owards the community, and helping destroy poverty of any kind. No extra money goes back to us. What we do get is the better neighbourhood we all want to live in. This seems like a good time to us. One of the basic Cravings of humanity is to connect with each other. We think outstanding fairly traded coffee and engaging conversations in scintillating environs is a brilliant way to connect. And we’d like to thank you for supporting the local community and making this neighbourhood a better place to live, simply by living a little with us.

BIG WEEK - we have a week of improvements for fire safety in Crave. A bunch of walls around the bathroom block are getting extra gib put on and our awesome RSJ beams have to be covered up unfortunately to comply. The builders will be working super fast to get it all done in 5 days. It does mean our bathrooms will be out of action, we have some prestige portaloos in the meantime.

Our upstairs areas including the library and the private rooms are inaccessible for the week as well as the cage and toy box areas. Everything else should be all good.

Should all be finished by Friday, so next weekend will not be impacted

We will update you with any details.

One of the best days of the year! We are now taking bookings for groups of 8 or more for mother's day.

Bring the whole family and celebrate mum together. We have food and beverage specials and a whole lot of big tables ready to go.

Pro tip - book before 9.30am or after 1.30pm to avoid the rush.

Thank you to Cathie and Anais for the gorgeous pic.
