Really good brunch place . Enjoyed the baked eggs with chorizo and the lobster egg benedict . Baked egg is still hot after 15 mins on the table. Waited abt 20mins in queue and food about 10mins. Raved
Great experience sitting at the kitchen bar enjoying great culinary performance by the chefs while enjoying my nice lunch . Lunch time can gets really crowded , come earlier to get a nice seat.
The best brunch I have ever eaten! Definitely worth the wait. Great customer service. Try the baked eggs and matcha green tea latte . Ask for extra fancy latte art if you want an Instagram moment.
really nice french cafe in the city , lobster benedict is so good, it is a must try. all the breakfast menu is delicious, and the staff is really friendly too. https://t.co/ITZc5IilfO
Truly excellent Service and food. It was a culinary delight. We had the scrambled eggs with chorizo and asparagus and the baked eggs in a pot. Highly recommended.
Fried brioche- dulce de leche, caramelized bananas , coffee panna cotta , Nutella - for the sweet tooths!! (For 2 ppl) I would recommend sharing this for dessert
Truly excellent Service and food. It was a culinary delight. We had the scrambled eggs with chorizo and asparagus and the baked eggs in a pot. Highly recommended. check out : perfection
My second visit here. Baked eggs still taste as good, but I also discovered that the lobster benedict is very good as well ! Just that it'll be better if they can serve the lobster warm
Amazing lobster benedict . So fragrant and the bun was so light. Suggest getting there first thing if you wish to avoid the queues.
Yummy food, great service and coffee isn't too bad. I really like their vibes! It would be nice if they could offer a few more choices on the menu.
I freaking loved the Baked Eggs Chorizo while I find Lobster Benedict was way too 'seafood-ish' for me but overall it was still good. Green Tea Latte was awesome! -Penang Kia Food Critique-
great place to have brunch ! we had the croque and the french toast and it's hard to say which one was better. very friendly staff . just loved everything!
Baked eggs are fantastic! Though it looks small, it is very filling. The combination of cheese and the runny egg can make it a bit much towards the end.
Try to sit at the bar or outside. It can have a long wait . Egg dish with shrimp . Anything with a slice of bread . Tuna nicoise salad was perfect.
The hot chocolate is unquestionably a stunner in taste and presentation. Virtually every dish was delicious. Queues are horrendous, plan accordingly. Great for impressing someone from out of town .
Fried brioche ? Yes! Far less sickly than your usual French toast . Lots of different flavours coming out, including everyone's favourite: ginger .
A CBD icon now ... always a stately queue snaking in. The coffee , the croque madame , roast pork sandwich
Generous breakfast meal provided. Had loads of mushrooms . Excellent drinks. The positive comments given by the reviewers proved them right!
Awesome baked goods , coffee is par excellence, and baked eggs are always nom. Pet peeve: eftpos minimum is $20 which is fucking outrageous. Like, you're not allowed to do that.
Baked eggs was really good with the pork belly being slightly underwhelming. The coffee and hot chocolate were decent. Be prepared to wait as there is often a queue!
Confit duck . Great chai , just enough ginger :) come early and expect a bit of a wait at peak periods.
Lively and colourful. Go there at opening time to avoid a queue. Mushroom and egg was ok. I feel the café is over hyped. Menu can be made gluten free .
The special - duck and mushroom pie with poached eggs , watercress and apple salad with sliced baguette . Love!
The food there are really nice. Recommend Baked egg ! And flat white ! Enjoy the brunch ~
Had an excellent breakfast , did what everyone recommended, the lobster benedict !! U won't regret it!
Love the communal table setting. Love the food but I hope they can improve their matcha latte .
Their baked eggs is a must try. This place is always full so get prepare to wait for a long time to be seated.
Go early to avoid Q. Lobster Benny is delish. Coffee is v good. Construction site opp shop so sit inside it u can.
Service is excellent, the ambience wonderful, the food unbelievable good. And they are super dog friendly , including giving water bowl to our lil one. AWESOME!
Ordinary place for brunch type food. Unsure why there’s always a line ...but I guess “brunch ” is the thing to do over the last few years...and majority of ppl have try herd manyality.
Love love love. I'm just in love with padre's daddy's little girl. This place has got a great barista who serves coffee with an awesome latte art !
Pork belly and baked egg chorizo is fantastic. Great and bustling environment with superb service
Really tasty food and value for money . Try pork belly and duck confit , you would not disappoint :) coffee is too creamy for me
Just bloody amazing coffee . Oh, did I mention the breakfast was just as good!
They love their brioche , bit too sweet for me for breaks but the meal itself was great - had lobster Benedict + croque madame w duck
Love it, wonderful food & taste. Get ready to wait for 30-45min, check their special at the day, always amazing.
Amazing job in the coffee department and great value for money breakfasts with uber large portions .
I have been to there 3times or even more. I love their menu and coffee . They always surprise me with the menu
They are on both sides of the road . You can sit behind in the kitchen and see food being prepared.
Get in early if you don't want to wait (9ish). Everything is amazing. Baked eggs is a real winner
This place is very popular, staff is knowledgeable about the food and adjusted my meal to be lactose free.
Everything is great here, but it's always busy so get in early.
Well worth the wait for brunch ! Everything was perfect.
Baked eggs duex.... Soooo delicious! Also the honey marbled bacon is delicious. Can not go wrong here! Mmmm
Super busy, but the breakfast was amazing. Recommend the Scrambled Eggs "Un" (one), comes with chorizo .
The baked eggs was die-for. No waiting time on Wednesday afternoon @ 1pm. Read more
Baked eggs is a popular choice, lobster benedict was delectable!
Lobster Benedict and baked eggs chorizo is amazing!!
Pork belly with fried eggs is a bit overrated I think. More heavy than filling. Pork belly a bit tough. Not well-balanced plate, needs a larger salad on side. But the croquettes were good.
The baked eggs dish is divine...! Also the coddled eggs are are a great way to share small nibbles.
Big, big portions, excellent coffee and great ambiance. All down a tucked away alley. - Vic McGin
Try the cured ocean trout with poached eggs for breakfast. Amazing combination of flavours. - Glen Taylor
Great place for fresh fruit, vegetables, meats, seafood, cheese, breads and other great food. You can also buy expensive rubbish from china if you're in to that kind of thing. Great for food! - ᴡ Love
Pho Nom was one of my fav noodle soup in Emporium Melbourne food court, and I love it so much! It's yummy!???????????? - Jie Jing
Grab lunch from one of the surrounding food courts and sit on the State Library lawn on a sunny day for some excellent people watching and a great atmosphere - Tal Rotbart
