I enjoyed their spin on breakfast sandwiches . Their traditional breakfast platters are good too. Be sure to add the Maple Bacon to your order ad a nice side.

Cool little aussie spot with excellent breakfast , brunch , and coffee . Specials are always killing it and the espresso is flowing. A true gem. Plus, it's byob !

Summer Alani

Amazing! Might be slow service just because it’s so busy but other than that it was delicious. The sweet potatoes are nothing like I’ve had before. Eggs of any sort is delicious. Friendly staff

Paul Grooms

Loved the food but not for people who like a lot of space between themselves and other diners. Can get a bit noisy .

Lisa Rader

We loved having breakfast there. The food was delicious and you can choose between so many really fancy dishes.

Curious about Australian coffees ? Ants Pants Café in Graduate Hospital is a great place to be indoctrinated into flat whites and long blacks—along with iced coffees made from espresso ice cream .

order coffee with tim tams . bite off opposite corners of the tim tam and suck coffee through until it feels slightly soft. eat immediately. try not to sound like Sally in the diner scene.

The space inside is a little crowded ; try to get a table on the back patio if the weather allows! Great, inexpensive food.

Larisa Grollemond

Brunch line can get a bit long on weekends but the food (and Aussie coffee drinks) are worth the wait.

Joe MacNichol

Best breakfast around. Try the house specialty ...creme brûlée French toast ! Yumm. They also often have french toast specials to die for. Great staff , awesome food, perfect local place!

When it comes to brunch , G-Ho residents know that this tiny Australia-inspired eatery is the ant’s pants . Try the bacon stacks (bread layered with bacon , tomato , arugula , a fried egg and cheese ). Read more
