Realising a long held dream, owner Marie has created a wonderful venue providing a range of delicious, freshly made homemade food and cakes using only the finest quality produce and ingredients to eat in or take out. What makes Café 81 even more special is her commitment to cater for dietary needs including gluten free (GF), dairy free (DF), vegetarian (V) and vegan (Ve) plus a choice of Healthier (H) options.
