It's nice to be able to review a cafe whereby no bad incidents happened. Lord knows, that's rare sometimes. It was quite by accident/chance that we came here. I saw something on Instagram from here that took my fancy, and wouldn't you know it, when we sat down to order, I couldn't find the picture again so didn't even order that (I know; screenshot it next time).Instead, I ordered the Eggs Benedict with smoked salmon on a potato rosti, pickled red cabbage and poached eggs and Harissa hollandaise. It really was good. MAYBE if I were to be fussy, I'd say the potato rosti was just a fraction over done, but that's splitting hairs. The staff were friendly, the food came out fast, and it was really good. They do sell little cakes and muffins etc to either eat in or take out. I must say, not all looked appealing, but there was a great variety. Parking could be an issue at busy times. The council seem to think that by taking away parks, it "beautifies" the street. Uh, not so much. But if you go for breakfast early enough, it's a good spot. I highly recommend eating here. The breakfast is all day and there looks like a good lunch menu as well. Perhaps that's what I'll go for next time!

We decided to drop in as it had been sometime we had eaten. New owners and really looked good. We decided to have the Seniors Meal. I had bangers and mash. I have never seen a more disgusting meal in a long time. The sausages, two off, were long thin and very tasteless. My wife had a very dry and tasteless chicken schnitzel. There were chips on her plate that looked like they had seen better days.We both decided a return visit was completely out of it.

Takeaway food - 19/09/17The good - The chips, dim sims and potato cakes were delicious but remembering it is a hard thing to bugger up. The not so good - The fish burger would have to be the worst I have had, it was bland, it lacked ingredients and came with no sauce! I felt like I was eating a plain bun and for $9 you would think I was kidding. (See pictures)We also ordered 2 pieces of fish and I was somewhat shocked not to see any lemon wedges in our pack, you have to have lemon! Not sure if this was a hidden cost or just an amateur mistake but nonetheless I should've been offered. No sauce bottles to help yourself. You need to buy these overpriced miniscule packets of sauce for $1.Another big distaste of mine is not being greeted once you have walked up to the counter! After the customer in front was finished I walked up next and was waiting for the 'hello, what would you like?' That didn't come so there were a few uneasy & awkward moments before I decided to talk first. Surely it is not that hard to say hello?? Being a new local (6 months) I doubt that I would go back, nothing to entice me and the fish burger makes me feel as if I have been ripped off. I come from the home of the best fish & chips shops in my opinion and they are on the Mornington Peninsula.South Melbourne's #1 International Reviewer

We ate here on a Monday night so it was fairly quiet. We ordered ribs and wings and burger with chips and salad. The servings are huge. The photos donât do it justice. Service was quick and friendly. There is quite a good selection of beverages at the bar. If you eat a lot, give this big menu a go.

My party of 2 arrived at about 10am on Saturday morning. While the place was packed, we only had to wait about 20 minutes. Service was friendly and prompt (we sat inside), food and coffee were great and we enjoyed our brunch. The presentation of the food was lovely. Will definitely visit again before I leave Melbourne!

Modern clean cafe with friendly staff and a unique Middle Eastern menu that will set your taste buds on a delightful rollercoaster. The smashed avo with grilled haloumi was beautifully presented and divine to taste. Excellent roasted coffee made this is a winner of a brunch.Thanks for the vote if you found this review helpful.

Prices have gone up, size portion has shrunk but mercifully taste factor is still good. Pisses me off that the Avo mash on toast (without egg) now costs almost $19 for a small serve. Why do we pay City Southbank prices for suburban Oakleigh? Surely the rent & overheads are less. Probably this Cafe has decided they still get the crowds for the price they charge. Coffee is really good as are the sweets which are more reasonable. I will stick with this in future. Service is prompt & not bad.

The restaurant its self is very large with comfortable seating arrangements. The service was good without being great. They do refer to having two seatings while we were attempting to book but the restaurant was only 1/3 full We ordered the seafood platter for 2 and we were not disappointed. Everything was cooked perfectly and tasted exceptional. We were able to change the oysters from fresh to mornay. The experience was peasant and i will definitely return

What can I say? The food was wonderful, the coffee was divine and the staff who attended to us was welcoming, helpful and friendly! I would strongly recommend the Hush Puppy! The crab meat was fresh and the portion just right! Almost heaven...only flaw to me was the passage to kitchen and bathroom probably requires some screen or partition. If you sat at the table which we did it was not a pretty sight to behold.
