Had a brunch here for the first time today and it was pretty satisfying. I chose a safe option and went with the big breakfast and it was pretty good. The classic white decor and design of the cafe was calming and the staff were friendly. Definitely worth trying for casual brunches but mind the queue of people after 11am as it can get pretty busy.
Too expensive. Popular items from Melbourne cafes. Presentation is similar to out of the city cafes. Quality and portion from low to average. I honestly won't come back because the portion is too small compare to the price, the quality of the food is average. Over priced! You'll get the same experience maybe with better quality and huge portions, lower prices, from outside the city cafes. I might recommend it for someone who don't want to travel too far but I'll warn them about what I mentioned above. As for me, I won't come back. It's a marketing project really, the ingredients are economically smart (maybe even not fresh), portions are small, extra decoration and fancy presentation for marketing, filled with millennial which is their target market. If you value your money and appreciate soul food with an artistic twist this place considered "fake" to you.
Great food and extensive menu to please anyone! The staff are friendly and very helpful- the first time we went for brunch it was cool and the sky was a bit cloudy, and there was a line to get a table inside. A waiter asked if we would like to sit outside and we said we would be happy to. When our food came we began eating just as it started to rain! The staff were so kind and held an umbrella over us as they went to find us a table inside despite it being booked out and very busy. Within a few minutes they picked up our half-eaten dishes and took our plates inside out of the rain. We were so impressed with the service we came again the next time we were in Melbourne. This time there was no wait as it was a weekday, but again the staff were so friendly and kind. I even talked to a waitress in French about Paris as we had just traveled there! I highly recommend this cafe if you're in the area!! I have had the Matcha French toast, matcha latte, crushed green and a latte. All amazing!
Heard a lot about this place from Facebook so I had to try it. I was drawn by the tessellated tiles and crisp white cafe. The indoor seating was quiet spacious, pretty, but noisy. The menu is creative, tasty and the dishes are a work of art. It's obvious they want to be the next big thing on Instagram, even telling you to take a pic when the food came out. I had the matcha orange pancakes with fairyfloss, honeycomb and berries. The flavours were nice. Tasted like an orange poppy seed cake rather than a pancake. My friend had the cauliflower pannacotta with a 63 degree egg and scallops. It was a bit of a smaller dish but she thought is was delicious. Is try this place again
After a few brunch disappointments, I was taken aback by how amazing White Mojo is. Located on Hardware St, I saw a queue outside around 9.30 on a Sunday and was nervous that there would be a wait. I was surprised that there wasn't and walked into a bright beautiful modern cafe with an abundance of seating. The queue was for the cramped Hardware societe and I was relieved. Service was quick with my extra hot creamy skim cappucino arriving quickly. The menu appeared quite pricey with an all-day brunch but man was it worth it. The chilli scrambled eggs on brioche bun were actually spicy and went well with the sweetness of the brioche. The bun was covered in shavings of mozarella cheese that only added to the flavour. And I don't ever eat bacon finding it fatty and too fried for something in the morning, but this double smoked bacon - well I couldn't stop eating it! It was not chewy but crispy and easy to cut through and was very tasty. The soft-shelled crab encased in tempura batter on a buttery salty croissant with pickled cucumber and fried egg was equally fantastic - White Mojo wasn't stingy with its seafood and it was fresh (not that frozen kind you get in Asian shops). The croissant was of excellent quality and the sweet chipotle mayo helped with digesting the oiliness of the soft-shelled crab and croissant. This place is AMAZING! Service is excellent and the food was satisfying! Definitely a Sunday treat as it is quite pricey for 56 dollars for two people.
With so many cafes in the CBD, White Mojo surely stood out as one of the best. Earlier this week, I had a chance to try some of their new menus and as usual I was blown away! Some of the recommended option will be the 'Smoke' Salmon, Matcha Orange Pancake and S'More Waffle! The 'Smoke' salmon is served with a glass cover and smoke (what White Mojo is well-known for). Indeed the situation got a little smoky until the interesting layers was revealed. Gin and tonic cured Atlantic salmon, roast beetroot labneh, whipped avocado and tahini, pomegranate and chive vinaigrette, puffed quinoa and poached egg. The 'Smoke' salmon was gone almost immediately. The S'more Waffle is as tasty as its look. The crunchy waffles are topped with toasted meringue, Nutella frosting, house made semifreddo and macerated raspberries. Delicious and beautiful dessert brunch to share or to have it for yourself! Matcha Orange Pancake is my favourite! The soft and zesty orange pancake is topped with fresh seasonal fruit, chocolate crumble, fairy floss, popping candy and a side of white chocolate matcha cream. For drinks, White Mojo done it again with another hyped drink, the Black Latte! Fragrance and mildly sweet black sesame in a drink. Comforting and yet so aesthetic!
Yes break my wallet won't you but it is quite a show here. Are you sick of waiting in line for Hardware Societe? Well, White Mojo tastes great, price is about the same and looks good too for the photo addicts. I went on a Sunday just before noon and we snagged an outside spot after a 5 minute wait. We had: Mojo burger - the soft shell crab was cripsy and the chipotle sauce gave it a bang. Cauliflower panna cotta with scallops, potato popcorn, black pudding dust AND this one was really magical. It was served in a smoke-filled glass kalosh (crowd goes ooooOOooo). We ordered a side of chorizo (bit on the small side and all cut up) and the house cured/smoked salmon which is a MUST try. I enjoyed the food and to me the theatrics, taste, serving size and location suited the price. Can't comment much on the drinks but we had a regular coffee and green tea latte which were good but nothing fancy.
This morning I had an avocado toast (called a "smash green") and coffee for breakfast at White Mojo. Because I prefer to go vegan, I requested that they forgo the boiled egg and cheese and requested more veggies and avocado as a substitute. It was without exception the best avocado toast I have ever eaten. My coffee, a long black, was also excellent, and the service and ambiance superb. My son ordered a pumpkin toast for breakfast and he too raved about his dish. I will make it a point to visit White Mojo whenever I return to Melbourne. It will always be my favorite breakfast stop in Melbourne.
Very unique specialty coffee and roaster Cafe in Melbourne, popular for their Black Latte with Bonsoy (Vegan). Unlike the typical latte, this drink contains charcoal, peanuts, almond, and sesame. Beautiful to behold with the milk pattern and delicious! Excellent for a cold day in the city. The food options here look amazing as well. Would love to try their Signature Croissant Burger next time, since it has soft shell crab, smoked reel, fried eggs, chorizo crumb, and pickled cucumbers on a butterfly croissant. Sounds amazing! Drop by for brunch or for some awesome coffee drinks!
This place is located in the small alley. There are multiple well-known restaurants near by as well. My first impression when I stepped into the restaurant was very hip and modern. 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. read more

Personally, if I had to pick between this place or the other popular brunch spot next door, Hash, I'd go with this one. They have a lot more menu options and their portions are bigger. 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. My food unfortunately took nearly 90 mins to come out but they gave me another free crafted drink to make up for it. Their matcha latte and cappuccino are satisfying. read more
There seem to be a couple of these places around, or at least I have encountered a couple of them. However, that doesn't necessarily mean that they are bad, particularly if they serve your typical Melbourne barista coffee, which is what they certainly do. I actually went to the one of Hardware Lane, namely because it was near where I worked, and also a good excuse to go somewhere I hadn't been before. Well, I can comment on the coffee (since the first time I was here I was still drinking coffee) and it was actually quite well done. Smooth, and not too bitter. I also liked the relaxing aesthetic atmosphere, to you can be assure that this place does get a little crowded. read more

There was a short wait, and completely worth it. We had the chili eggs with a charcoal bun and the soft shell crab croissant. Both were packed with flavor and we devoured our food!! Not only does it look good, it tastes even better! read more

White Mojo is a brand new cafe, just a couple months old but it has created a substantial noise on Instagram. Mojo means influence, magical power or some kind of spell. Correlates more to positive magic rather than black magic. there's lots of things needed to be improved but the eton mess is so pretty read more

The best meal I have ever eaten. The staff were so lovely and the food was so incredibly presented. Honestly the happiest I have ever walked out of a restaurant. I ordered the sweet and sour waffle and the smashed avo meal (to share with my sister) and the combination of the two was just perfect we also tried the banana muffin with raspberry sauce. Delicious. We will return again and again! read more
