How we read reviews →South Melbourne's warmest corner café. exceptional coffee and bacon rolls made with genuine care
A beloved community corner café where staff sing along to the radio while they work and treat every customer like a regular. Al fresco seating spills onto a leafy suburban street. Quiet enough for conversation, personal enough to feel like a good friend's kitchen rather than a commercial café.
Homemade tomato relish served with egg and bacon rolls; flavoured coffee syrups available on request; ready-made lunch options for time-poor customers; catering available; al fresco seating on a leafy corner street.
A classic Australian corner café at its best. no pretension, just excellent coffee, honest fresh food, and staff who love their work. The name Francine is that of the owner who built the warm culture the café is known for.
Excellent value. coffee and a substantial bacon and egg burger noted at $18 in one review, considered fair for South Melbourne. Generous serves at affordable pricing, especially relative to the suburb.
