Really awesome food, service, and priced so reasonably that it's worth driving out of your way for. Everyone was happy with their coffees/smoothies. We got a classic veggie burger (which had a really great home-made patty, melted cheese, lettuce, tomatoes - really a perfectly done, tasty veggie burger, exactly what I was after) along with a steak sandwich ( local steak, wasn't remotely chewy, fresh ingredients). All really great portions. Really well done, classic food, that isn't trying to be pretenious, succeeds at nailing key flavours. Will drive out from Hobart again.

What a gem! Place can get busy and that’s for a reason, delicious food and nice friendly service. The spirulina ‘blue’ smoothie was fantastic. Steak sandwich was nice and tender and eggs cooked to perfection. There is starting to be some outdoor shaded seating which is good, and plenty of parking. Coffee was spot on

Fabulous Cafe, delicious food!! Great coffee & pet friendly. Friendly & inviting staff, the atmosphere is wonderful & relaxed with ample if outdoor seating available. Great range of gluten free meals on their menu. Highly recommend, we will definitely be returning with our Frenchie during the warmer months. Friday nights they have burger nights with a beer van outside. We will definitely give this a try!!

We hadn't been for a while, so while researching beach accessibility we called in for Brunch. So glad we did. Lovely food, great service, happy staff and patrons. The steak sandwich was great. Definitely be back

I have a dream that every traveler venturing through the scenic roads of South Harms, Tasmania, should pause and experience a place that offers more than just coffee—it offers a journey through time. Touch of Mo Café stands as a beacon of warmth and culture, inviting all who pass to step into a space that feels both nostalgic and timeless. This vintage-style café, adorned with charm and history, is not just a stop for coffee but a gateway into the soul of the region. With the soothing hum of a classic jukebox serenading patrons, one can’t help but feel transported to a simpler, more melodic era. The locals, kind and welcoming, frequent this establishment, making it a hub of genuine community spirit. The offerings are no less remarkable. From perfectly brewed coffee to decadent desserts, every item is a celebration of craftsmanship. Whether you are a traveler seeking respite or a soul searching for connection, Touch of Mo is not just a café—it is a reminder that even in a fast-paced world, we can pause, appreciate, and indulge in the beauty of the moment. This, my friends, is more than just a place to eat or drink. It is a stop where the journey becomes as meaningful as the destination.

Amazing coffee and chai latter. The food was delicious. We had the Buddha bowl and avocado on toast. Flavours were devine and servings generous. The staff were friendly and attentive. Very welcoming atmosphere and reasonably priced. We will be back
