(Translated by Google) A lovely cafe, my first time visiting in Melbourne, Australia. I enjoyed breakfast there; the eggs were served deliciously with grilled tomatoes, halloumi cheese, avocado, and toast. And the best part was the orange juice with ginger and fresh pineapple. (Original) مقهى جميل اول مرة ازوره في ملبورن استراليا استمتعت فيه بتناول الافطار يتم تقديم البيض بطريقة لذيذة مع الطماطم المشوي وجبنة الحلووم. والافوكادو والخبز المحمص والاجمل عصير البرتقال مع الزنجبيل والاناناس الطازج

Rudest owner woman. Horrendous, surly service after flagging the soup was in fact stone cold. No apology, no replacement. Awful. Don’t go here.

Like a really good piece of music my choice of breakfast caught my attention from the beginning. Scrambled eggs, chorizo and sambal paste, crunchy kale and jalapeño, sourdough and Meridith goats cheese sounded so delicious I had to try it. The Sambal Chilli Scramble may be one of the best dishes I’ve ever had. Beautiful plated and quickly served I began to taste such a wonderful combination of flavors I paused to take the moment in. There was heat but only to the limit of taste but not overpowering. The goat cheese was soft and sweet and a perfect place to go to to cleanse the pepper before heading back to the eggs and chorizo. I can’t wait to have this meal again.

Superb service. Great coffee. Fine food. Large menu. Good for gluten free. Observed most customers to be regulars. Paid parking on street. Lovely outside seating. Still a leader after 2+ decades.

Had a good breakfast. Street seating could use an update.
