Neo Cafe & Eatery

I went to Neo café an hour before closing and so 30 minutes before closing the kitchen. There was less than 5 minutes of waiting for a table to clear sunday, I was served quickly. I was welcomed by Dina and Freya who were adorable and professional. I took:nn- a hot chocolate with oat milk $7nn- WOAP special burger $23ntabasco honey-glazed chorizo patty, with jalapeño corn beignet, lime-smashed avocado, chorizo crumble, caramelised onion jam, coriander, and chipotle lime crema in an arobake brioche bun grilled with tequila burnt corn butternnBlueberry Peach Pancakes Gluten Free $27nspiced vanilla pancakes, honey roasted peaches, blueberry sauce, custard cream, cinnamon snickerdoodle cookie & candied pecansnnTotal spent : 57$nnI loved everything. The flowers and plants were nice decoration addition to the place. The staff was lovely and efficient.

I had visited this café in 2022 and remembered it being busy with great food. This time, the menu and presentation were still good, and both dishes were well made but lacked balance in the flavour.nnWe ordered the Avocado on Toast and Soy & Maple Mushrooms. While the ingredients and combinations were interesting, both dishes were quite overpoweringly sour. The pickled cucumber, pickled onions, balsamic notes, pomegranate molasseses and other tangy elements like feta, lemon dominated the flavours, making it difficult to enjoy the overall balance in both dishes respectively.nnThe food itself is good, but a better balance of flavours—especially reducing the sourness—would make these dishes much more enjoyable. I hope they read this review as I really enjoy the food here. They seasonally change the menu, I hope they recognise this imbalance of flavour while serving and fix it. I love the cafe 4.8 for cafe. But for the food this time 3.5

such a cute warm cafe! cafe neo gets very busy, but I can see why as it's extremely tasty consistent food. I ordered the poached eggs on sourdough toast which was seriously so yum. The bread was nicely toasted and spread with melted butter, along with their poached eggs cooked to perfection.

Finally got to try this cafe and had the most wholesome breakfast!! I ordered a breakfast bagel and all the ingredients were fresh and nourishing not just breakfast, this was a boujee brekkie so yum!!nnBut the meat patty didn’t match the vibe at all. Everything else tasted high quality and healthy, then the patty felt kinda cheap and off. I LOVE meat, but I couldn’t even finish it… the pork smell lowkey made me feel like going vegan for a moment yk nnOverall this cafe has amazing quality and really wholesome dishes, but next time I’m definitely getting the vegan option to enjoy the real flavours!

Absolutely delicious - best breakfast I’ve had in a long time. I travel a lot for work and have eaten in many different places.nThe chilli scramble with Salmon because I wanted an extra protein hit was just simply a 10/10.nnThe coffee was great also and overall I highly recommend this place.
