This is my favourite cafe. I come here with my Mom all the time, and get a freshly made Banh mi on my lunch break. The owner is so kind and hires a really cool team. Also their matcha is top tier and their portions are very fair! I always forget to write a review and wish I had written one sooner but all in all if you visit this cafe you won’t regret it at all!

Wow! The food, service and vibe of this place is brilliant. I’m staying locally for 2 weeks and always start my day right here. I had delicious salmon avocado and poached eggs on potato croquettes this morning - just fantastic! Better than any fancy restaurant & so much on the menu to choose from. The coffee is perfect. The hospitality first class & everyone is always welcomed with a personal touch. Chef/owner Amood and his daughter look after all their customers like family. A gem!

Delicious food and top tier service. Breakfast wrap is mouth watering and the pistachio almond crossiant will rock your world. All the staff are cuties.

I was feeling peckish and stopped here for a warm matcha and croissant. The croissant was huge, buttery and flaky. The matcha was so good!! You can tell they hand whisk it and that they use good quality matcha, which is amazing considering that their matcha costs about $5. I was automatically offered free water after seated and also butter with my croissant which I appreciated.
The waitress was super sweet and we talked for a bit :) She even gave me a note listing what I should do in Melbourne (as a tourist) and I think that service simply does not get any better than that. 10/10

Absolutely love the food and coffee at this place! Staff are friendly and warm.
My friend and I tried their new iced matcha and strawberry matcha, and it was amazing, perfect to combat the summer! Had such a beautiful green colour and added honey, which gave it the perfect sweetness.
Very high quality!
