How we read reviews →Ivanhoe's community cafe inside the arts centre. warmth, great coffee, and a Pay It Forward culture.
Bright, airy, and welcoming inside Ivanhoe's arts and library centre. Tree-lined outlook through large windows, modern and clean interior with plenty of seating. The atmosphere is defined more by its exceptionally warm staff than its fit-out. guests feel genuinely looked after.
Social enterprise cafe operated by Open House CIC. Pay It Forward option lets patrons purchase a coffee for someone who needs it. Staff personally remember regular customers and occasionally surprise them with thoughtful gestures. Musicians welcome. staff have invited buskers in off the street to play inside.
Not applicable. Modern Australian cafe format with community social enterprise mission.
Described as not overpriced for the Ivanhoe location. Reasonable pricing for the quality of coffee and the genuine warmth of service included.
