"The Chicken Caesar Salad at Ichi was super fresh and delicious! The chicken was tender, veggies were crisp, and the dressing was just right. Loved the toast on the side too – simple but perfect!"

"Seriously might be the last cafe in Canberra offering great value for money — you can get nice drinks and a decent feed, including some good specials, without remortgaging the house. I also like to the generally chill and unpretentious atmosphere inside, or you can sit in the centre concourse and watch the rest of Kippax go by. MASSIVE bonus: it has a well-stocked take-one-leave-one bookshelf right in the entrance!! Staff are lovely and have never had an issue with takeaway service, though it can sometimes be a bit disorganised if you eat in. But if you have time to sit down, who really cares if meals arrive a few minutes apart when you're probably paying half as much as you would at the Coffee Club next door, and getting something that wasn't cooked entirely in a microwave for your money? Cannot fathom why anyone would go there over this little beaut of a spot, but if you do then I can definitely recommend you give Ichi a try next time instead :)"

"⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This café is absolutely fantastic! The Greek salad is fresh, flavorful, and perfectly balanced, while the mocha is rich, smooth, and simply divine. The prices are reasonable ($$), making it a great spot for a delicious meal or coffee break. Highly recommended for anyone looking for quality food and drinks in a cozy atmosphere. A must-visit!"

"The staff show our table and we ordered. The staff happy and friendly to serve us the food. Have coffee and tea, with cakes. Cold drinks or whatever you like to order. The little Coffee shop is a cosy and friendly restaurant in Kippax Centre, the sitting inside and out in the hall way. I highly recommend Ichi Coffee Shop, all fresh produce made in the shop, the owner is a Chef. If you are firstly, look no more Ichi will have your coffee for you, they welcome you with a smile."
