The serving size was so generous we couldn't quite finish it between two of us (and we have huge appetites).

The crispy eggs at Mr H actually made my eyes roll back in my head. I called people on the phone after I finished eating to discuss it.... so ya, it's that good. The sweet potato purée is the perfect nest for the crispy fried poached eggs. The fresh cos lettuce salad with homemade ranch cuts through the luscious ham hock perfectly and the sliced sourdough toast is an excellent tool to tie it all in. I'm drooling just typing about it. I went back a second time, but made sure to but take my husband because I wanted to share the love. While he ate, I snapped a photo of him that is cringeworthy, but you can see the expression on his face while shovelling the remnants of a crispy egg that he is indeed in food heaven nirvana. I decided to get the brocolinni salad my second visit which was outstanding as well, really high caliber food and so healthy and fresh. My only, only complaint would be smoking outside on the patio. In 2016, and that is a huge turnoff while enjoying a coffee or a splendid meal. Love ya Mr Hendrix. Mrs Hendrix is a lucky lady

They've done a great job at branding and the colours & furniture are really stylish which makes your visit there comfortable. And with the cool music playing as well as super lovely staff, they've got their place happening. As far as food, this isn't something I can comment on. It appears very "fancy" on the menu, and pricey. Because of it's location, it's excellent for all-day patronage but it's not somewhere people will travel to for dinner so they should probably adjust their menu a little to suit a coffee-shop/lunch menu and the prices to match. Overall, definitely worth a visit for the coffee and ambience.

We were greeted by friendly staff who were quick to bring out a pretty fabulous tasting latte while I looked through the menu. The variety was great and although i ended up going for the special of warm grain salad with lamb (amazing!), the brunch offerings looked delicious. The vibe was friendly, relaxed and efficient.

There's a huge selection of frozen take home food ranging from braised meats, curries to pasta sauces and stews, soups, lasagna and pies and much much more. It all looks homemade and there's vegetarian and gluten free options as well. There's a promo on at the moment where you get a coffee with your take home meal. Now folks, it's take home frozen meal, and not a take away meal. Sylvia's also stocks some items from Phillipas. There's also a lunch menu with hot food on it. All the food is made using free-range poultry, meat and eggs. The sweet options look tempting as well. I'd definitely return if I'm in the area. Lots of locals and the cafe just has a lovely buzz and atmosphere.

A large decent size of meat, no holding back on the sauce and seasoned chips. The salad needs work but, I'll still give the 5 stars. It is clear to me, the management and staff put in a lot of work and care about presentation and quality. The prices for food drinks are very cheap (it's an RSL). Box Hill RSL is SO GOOD, the money you save should be donated back to the club for the diggers (as a minimum)
