Rasheed HashimJuly 10, 2017Delicious food, very friendly staff and good atmosphere. Try the confit lamb sausage, lamb fry and the ricotta cake. The place is excellent for dates and groups for breakfast and brunch.

One of the best brekkie/lunch spots! Plenty of delicious, healthy options, that’ll also fill you up for hours. Went several days in a row when I was visiting, for the kale and broccoli salad🤤🥦

T MJuly 10, 2019I love the space. The conversion may have been inside an old power or water transformer station. Very popular so book for dinner. Great breakfast options. Superb coffee.
K WNovember 9, 2018Beautiful interior, delectable mix of food options. Recommendations: Kale & cauliflower salad(miso, almond hummus, avo, poached egg)• Steamed market fish(Japanese broth, black bean, veggie noodles)
MarkDecember 11, 2017Great place for breakfast/brunch. I went there twice on my trip to Melbourne. Good food selection and coffee. It is a big place but service was seamless both days
MJuly 29, 2017Lovely place , delicious dishes and also the best for breakfast, after all it was worthy waiting for 40M
Philip KApril 6, 2018The cauliflower & kale breakfast is delicious+nutritious from top to bottom. I’d have this again. Nice efficient service. Only letdown was the long black was a bit too bitter
Allison KaminskiNovember 28, 2018Beautiful restaurant and fun atmosphere. For lunch, duck sausage roll and steak were fantastic
Stella LaiSeptember 11, 2016Come in as small a group as you can or come at 1pm or later. Waited for an hour for a table of 4 but food was served pretty quickly and yumz. Worth the wait
AzimuthalAugust 10, 2019Excellent food but terrible service. Sit on the counter near the coffee machine & you’ll have to beg for service. Instead, sit at tables which are zoned for service. 10 for food, 1 for service.
Olly NewportMay 23, 2018Spiced cauliflower, scrambled eggs, curry leaf, roasted chilli, homemade flat bread. $20
- Good piccolo and interesting breakfast/brunch options. High quality food. You have to queue even during a week.
Sylvia CFebruary 21, 2017Slow-cooked beans were bland but the dish was filling. The hotcakes were plenty and very very filling. We could not finish them. Food presentation was beautiful. Interior is simple and spacious.
Jonathan SteffanoniNovember 8, 2018Peak Melbourne café... can’t knock the espresso or menu. A bit fancy and very busy... almost pretentious but not quite.
Penelope LouiseDecember 9, 2018The lamb fry up was absolutely delicious! Expect a wait on weekends, though.
- Tiki POctober 6, 2016Eggs Benedict is not your average eggs Benedict. Worth trying. Service is very efficient.
Scott MorrisMarch 4, 2017Amazing decor and amazing food. Make sure you come before 10am to avoid a queue!
Their kale salad is the best tasting vegetarian meal I've ever had.
Jana TodorovićNovember 18, 2018This place is popular that’s why a friend and I waited 30min to be seated.Portions are really small for the value.
Has the type of menu where you want to try everything!
Marianne NSeptember 16, 2017Yummy food, nice interiorS, and who doesn't like a breakfast cocktail? 🤷♀️
melis k.December 30, 2018the interior is good and everything but bringing a filthy chipped cup alongside HALF FULL TEAPOT and then giving an excuse such as ‘we measure everything’ is just unacceptable!baffled & disappointed.
Arrive at 12:45pm on Saturday and the long queue is a crazy 45minutes waiting.
- melis k.December 30, 2018Petros the waiter though was so kind and helpful, all smiles! he was the one that made everything bearable.:)
