This corner of Woy Woy is totally unexpected. The cafe is good, cheap, fast and has a good menu. There are a collection of shops here - and places you can book massages - which are lovely to just browse in. Health food shop, clothes shop, knick knacks, op shops... the place has its own unusual - and pleasant - vibe.

Bakery and cafe. The key ring used by The Muses' Retreat will give guests a discount on their coffee. The bakery makes fresh bread, including sour dough, and it's good. And also you feel good that you're supporting local businesses.
