The Moment Cafe
Overview
"It's a rare commodity to find a cafe that serves all your needs and wants - but that is what the Moment Cafe does! The cafe's main values are centered on sourcing the freshest produce from your local suppliers in an effort to support the small businesses in their location. They focus on sustainability while creating a 'special moment' for each individual who walks on in. They achieve this by catering to all dietary requirements without hassle, embracing different cultures and traditions throughout their food and, of course, making a banging cup of coffee, obviously the essential ingredient for the perfect visit to any local cafe! Whether you are looking for a place to bring your grandchildren for a special treat, a quiet place to work alongside a cup of coffee or a quick breakfast to go, Moment Cafe has you covered. So come along and experience what we have to offer, and we'll do our best to give you that special moment!"

Access guidance
- We are happy to come to you to take your order for those who have difficulties standing and queuing. Just make sure we know that you are there.
- There is wheelchair access right throughout Moment Cafe.
- Unfortunately, we cannot offer you either disabled parking or parking right outside, as there are no spots directly around Moment Cafe. There is paid parking on Southwark Street (off Manchester Street) which is roughly a 2 minute walk (150m) or more Parking corner of Tuam and Manchester Street which is roughly a 3 minute walk (200m) (according to Google Maps). We would suggest that you get someone to drop you off at the door to save this hassle if this is an issue for you.
- There are toilets available in Moment Cafe, but we also share these with other businesses around us - there is a walkway through a corridor which is directly connected to the cafe. Please see our walk-through video online (Hapai youtube) for more details.
- You are allowed assistance dogs anywhere on the premises.
- We understand if you need someone to assist you while you're here - we're also okay if they don't eat or have a cup of coffee.
- If you struggle to access visual information, then no worries - we will do our best to communicate to you as best as possible until you get what you need.
- If you struggle to access audible information, then once again, we will try our hardest to communicate to you as effectively as possible - let us know if anything would help.
- If you have any feedback on how we can improve the accessibility in our cafe, you're welcome to let us know! We would love to assist you in any way possible.
