You'll find yourself in a proper working garden when you arrive at Restore on Manzil Way—there's actual greenery here, not just a few potted plants by the door. It's the kind of place where you can watch volunteers pottering about while you sip your coffee, because this café funds a genuine horticultural therapy programme. The food's unpretentious and seasonal, the sort of thing you'd actually want to eat rather than photograph. It's become a proper local spot, the kind where regulars know the staff and it genuinely feels like you're supporting something worthwhile just by buying a flat white.
