How we read reviews →Oakleigh's standout all-day breakfast cafe. Zest coffee, generous portions and a family-run warmth
Modern and warmly designed inside Eaton Mall, with music that reviewers describe as cool and a lively but conversational buzz. Staff in overalls add to the distinctive aesthetic. Outdoor seating available. Owner-operated feel. the owners circulate the floor and regulars are greeted by name.
Zest coffee on batch. option to request a stronger double-ristretto version on milk-based drinks. Complimentary sparkling water served with espresso. Mandarin-speaking staff available. Custom meal variations handled without issue. Complimentary pastries reported on special occasions.
Not applicable. Modern Australian breakfast cafe. Menu draws on diverse influences (souvlaki toastie, Reuben Benedict, chorizo burrito) without claiming a single cultural tradition.
Portions are described as generous and affordable by most reviewers. A small criticism flags $10 for fries and $2 for sauce as steep, and a $2 iced-chai upcharge over hot. Overall consensus is very good value given serving size and quality.
