amazing quality food. they had these deliciousssss pistachio croissant the first time i went there and it was so good that i wanted to immediately go back to get another one. i did go back a month later but they had taken it off their menu i think. i asked and they said they just don’t have it so i went for the choc croissant. maybe it was a limited time thing. but the ube waffle is amazing. their drinks are pretty good too.
After a four-year absence from Melbourne, my spouse and I made this our first stop after leaving the airport. This place is undoubtedly one of the best place in Melbourne for breakfast, brunch, and exceptional coffee. The food was beautifully presented and tasted delicious, and the staff were friendly and professional. Overall, the experience was as remarkable as we remembered from our previous visit. I recommend making a reservation in advance to avoid waiting in line, as this place is quite popular.
Great brunch and breakfast spot near Flagstaff station. Went in on the long weekend and it was busy already. They have a wide menu offering meals and coffee. Some of the meals being served too good to be eaten. I ordered a simple toast along with the famous vegemite and peanut butter as well as a cafe latte. Can't really go wrong with toast while the coffee was good but not as much as I really expected. They have seating outside too and by the time I left around 1030am there was a long line waiting to get in. 15 AUD for my meal is quite decent pricing in an otherwise expensive city.
A popular brunch place near Flagstaff garden. Came on a weekday at 12, waited around 30 minutes. Service was prompted. I am not a coffee person but the matcha latte was nice. The food presentation was great as well. The taste was however just above average, can't really remember one dish that's stand out. Worth a try if you are around and there is no line.
Although my partner and I had to wait for a while because it was packed during lunchtime and it’s one of the popular cafes here, this is one of my favourite cafes in Melbourne! The food is on the pricier side but it’s definitely worth it. The food was presented beautifully and the coffee was amazing and I’m willing to try the other foods on their menu. I’ll definitely be back if I come back to Melbourne again :) I just have to make a booking prior
The overall experience was good. The staff was nice and the food was really good. Just you may need to wait for 45 mins outside under the sun lining up outdoor. The toast with soft-shelled crab was really good and the coffee was nice as well. The sweet pancake wasn’t as good as I thought though - it is still worth a try.
Cafe is quite popular, one day we walked passed but decided to come the next day. It was well worth the wait. We ordered the smashed yuzu avocado toast with extras and the corn fritters with extra mushrooms. The servings were large and extremely filling but absolutely delicious. We would definitely come again and picked the other dishes to try! Highly recommend to visit if you’re in Melbourne!
Nice cafe with indoor and outdoor seating close to flagstaff gardens. Be prepared to wait for while if you visit on weekends. Usually busy. Great options in the menu. I had the corn fritters, could definitely use more seasoning. Their iced coffee was the best!
