Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
Learn more about our review moderation.

Today we both had a positive experience. The Daylesford fish was buttery and delicious, and the quality of the Greek salad gyros meal was great too. Overall would come back again.

We walked past a few days ago and decided today to have brunch here. Both our meals were very tasty and well proportioned. The warm salad was very tasty. Staff were happy and service was timely. A good place to get good food at a...reasonable price and served in an efficient manner. RecommendedMore

Stopped by for breakfast before an early morning Appointment in town and continuing our trip on to Griffith. This place is a gem, with staff and food being fantastic and fresh. Oh and the coffee is great too. My wife loved the Ruby Super Bowl...and my Granola with local poached fruits, really hit the spot.More

Great spot for a Saturday catch up with friends. Coffee was spot on, and the burger would be my "must have" on the menu. With a team that's totally attentive and a kitchen crew turning out excellent meals, its well worth a visit!

Stopped in for breakfast this morning and what a pleasant experience it was. Quick and friendly service by the waiting staff. Ordering via the QR code was easy and getting our food was no different to ordering in person (quick). The food was yummy, coffee...was good.

I arranged a business meeting here today based on the online reviews and I was not disappointed. I arrived and signed in - Sign in Area is immediately inside the door. The cafe offers street parking on a very busy street, but a local tells...me there is also parking behind this cafe. Service was reasonably good... we ordered hot chocolates. Value was what you would expect- $10 for two hot chocolates. The hot chocolates were decadent with the most amazing, silky marshmallows accompanying them. I would return just to have another one!!More

Meals came piping hot in less than 15 minutes and were very nice.
