From the kitchen

These are the plates guests talk about. The full menu has more, but these are what people come in for.

  • Tofu Scramble

    Turmeric tofu on sourdough with fresh herb salad, chilli sambal, and edible flowers. The dish that converts the sceptics.

  • Buckwheat Pancakes

    Gluten-free, genuinely fluffy, and served with enough toppings to make you forget you have somewhere else to be.

  • Smashed Avocado

    Fresh, well-seasoned, on good bread. The Melbourne test, passed easily.

  • Chicken Pesto Toastie

    Golden sourdough, slow-cooked chicken, proper pesto, and care in every layer.

  • Snickers Acai Bowl

    Acai base, peanut butter, banana, cacao, granola. The dessert that pretends to be breakfast.

  • Laksa

    Fragrant coconut broth, rice noodles, the dish that surprises every first-time visitor.

  • Vegan Fritter Stack

    Corn and vegetable fritters with whipped vegan cream, beetroot relish, and edible flowers.

  • Vegan Nachos

    Corn chips, cashew cheese sauce, guacamole, jalapeños. The kind of thing you do not expect from a morning café.

Something to drink

The coffee is serious. The specialty drinks are the reason people stay longer than planned.

  • Chilli Choc Chai

    Dark, warming, with a slow chilli heat. The drink that mug. is known for beyond the food.

  • Specialty Coffee

    Lattes, flat whites, and long blacks made with attention. Cold brew available when the sun is out.

  • Matcha Latte

    Vivid green with a leaf latte-art finish, in a branded mug. cup.

  • Smoothies

    Three rotating flavours in branded mug. glasses. Made to order, no shortcuts.

  • Hot Chocolate

    House-made chocolate base, generous portion. Reviewers call it one of the best they have had.

The sweet counter

House-made and hard to walk past. Best with a coffee.

  • Mega Choc-Chip Cookie

    Oversized, properly gooey, sea salt on top.

  • Triple Choc Cookie

    For when one type of chocolate is not enough.

  • Raw Fudge Slices

    Dark, nutty, topped with dried flowers. Entirely plant-based and entirely unreasonable.

  • Bliss Balls

    Rolled in coconut, good for the walk home.
