Wow...I can't believe no one has written a review for this place yet. This is another favourite…read morelittle gem of a cafe that is just exceptional in every way. The decor is warm and inviting with lots of outdoor seating. The service is fantastic with staff being warm and chatty and very good at good service, making sure you feel like royalty. There is a community here of regulars and the staff all know them well. Inside there are pillows along two wall-seating areas so you can read a good book or just have a great place to sit with a friend over breakfast or lunch. I've had quite a few meals here and my all time favourites are the french toast and the chicken caesar salad. The french toast is done just as it should be, not soggy, but well done and comes with lightly cooked banana halves and crispy, crunchy bacon. The flavours all go so well together. The chicken caesar was perfect with all the components...crunchy homemade crouton slices, poached egg, crunchy bacon and a light dressing that was just right, not too oily and full of flavour. And of course I have to comment on the coffee.....excellent of course!!!! You know I wouldn't come back unless it was LOL It's one of the few places I can "not" order a "strong" latte and it comes out strong (as in not milky and full-flavoured coffee). Highly recommend this place and, it's owned by the same people as Cocos Lounge in Glen Waverley that I rave on about. Food is slightly pricier than a normal run-of-the-mill cafe, but the quality of the food you get is so worth it I'd rather eat here and know every meal I get I will like than to take my chances somewhere less expensive and not sure I'll like what I get.

I loved their interior design and the color and how bright the inside was. Their food also looks very hip (definitely instagram worthy)! So by its look, this place deserves five-stars. However in terms of taste, I wasn't really amazed at this location. Their salmon was a bit too salty and chilli egg was aight. (Not a fan of mushy texture- didn't have much flavor). I liked their seasame latte though. Price is average considered in Melbourne and their service was good.

I'd mark this as one of the best brunch spots in CBD. The quality is average but the things they put together are unheard of and I like that new experience.

Post Office Cafe The…read morefitout is a bit dated here but by no means awful. Just a small renovation would work wonders in my view. I was nicely greeted on arrival and offered the table of my choice. I ordered a warm chicken salad which seemed a tad pricey at $19. It was probably a rather silly dish to order on a bitterly cold day. When it arrived I raised my eyebrows a bit as I'd never quite seen the likes of it before. It was nothing like the warm chicken salads you get at most places these days. You know, the bed of salad and the grill marked chicken and a few other extras and a nice dressing. This though was very different. For a start, the chicken came with a sauce. And, there were several thickly cut slices of warm sweet potato provided plus avocado, Spanish onion and lettuce as well as surprisingly, slivers of green pickle. It looked very unusual and I had some trepidation about tackling it. I needn't have worried. It was rustic but nonetheless very good. The chicken pieces were generously sized and nicely cooked with ample moistness. The veggies were all lovely and tasty. It all hung together nicely. The dish probably needed a couple more leafy greens but was still very satisfying and I found myself liking it. Against the odds, I found myself liking it here and 3.5 is just the right score in my book.

Actually, I vaguely remember going to a cafe in the area years ago, though I suspect that even if it was this one, it was probably the one that was here before this one appeared. Anyway, I rather liked it. It certainly did meet the standards of what I look for in the Melbourne cafe, particularly since it is located down a side street. So, the meal was good, the tea was good, and the service was good, so that should pretty much tell you everything.

Excellent 5 Senses coffee can be found in this cafe by Anstey Station…read more Nice and spacey, not too loud and free wifi on offer makes it a great place to pull up a chair and grab a coffee. Food wise, if it's huge portions you're craving then your hunger will be satisfied here. From giant slabs of toast to overloaded bagels and burgers, they don't skimp. Unfortunately they are also pretty heavy handed on the salad dressing, and they put a side salad alongside every dish whether you order it or not (even simple toast orders). This leaves all bread items pretty soggy. Worth seeking out for the coffee or if you have a large appetite that needs to be filled with bread!
