How we read reviews →Smith Street brunch café fusing Sri Lankan hoppers and curries with classic Aussie brekky.
Cosy, colourful and plant-filled with a relaxed Fitzroy vibe, mural-lined walls, and a dog-friendly, laid-back energy that regulars describe as a neighbourhood haven.
Five Senses specialty coffee, dog-friendly seating, kids menu, vegan dessert options including a house "snickers" bar, Sri Lankan-Korean fusion kitchen led by the owner-chef.
Genuine Sri Lankan technique in the hoppers, milk rice and curries from a chef blending Sri Lankan and Korean heritage with Australian brunch staples. reviewers praise it as an authentic, intentional fusion rather than a gimmick.
Mixed. some reviewers call individual dishes pricey for the portion, but most feel the generous "Pav Brekky" plates and quality Five Senses coffee justify the cost.
