Monroes Coffee Shop - An awesome new spot for Durban!

So the other day on my way to "work" (see: coffee shop with free wifi) I happened to see this little spot that I hadn't noticed before - a garage door opening with beautiful succulents in the doorway and what looked like interesting stuff inside... I was hooked, so I walked over to have a look.

Turns out it's a cool new coffee shop for Durban (Yay!) called Monroes. It's an awesome little spot with a really cool aesthetic and vibe inside, free wifi, friendly owner, and what looked like lots of yummy goodies - and, of course, good coffee. Take a look...

"Monroes Coffee Shop is a quaint artsy style café providing the perfect mix of vintage decor, photography, home style coffee bar/deli food and of course a great cup of coffee."

You can find Monroes at 350 Gale Street (opposite The Factory Cafe, inside a signage and printing company).  They're open Monday to Friday,  8:30am to 4:30pm. I didn't sit down to sample their stuff last time, but I hope to do so very soon! Let me know if you'd like to join me :)

UPDATE: On a recent visit I noticed some big changes and it seems the management has changed, as well as the decor, menu offerings and service. No longer worth a visit, I'm afraid.
