AI Summary

Hidden South Yarra laneway cafe loved for 15 years of loyal regulars and dog-friendly garden seating.

Quiet, secluded European-laneway garden setting tucked away from the busy Chapel Street strip, framed by Victorian architecture.

Dog-friendly with treats for pets, heated outdoor seating in cooler months, QR-code table ordering, and a hidden laneway location off Caroline Street.

Several reviewers note a European, almost Parisian laneway atmosphere, though the menu itself is Modern Australian brunch fare rather than a specific national cuisine.

Long-time regulars say it's worth it, but a wave of recent reviewers call the pricing steep for the portions.
