Scarvelli use the fascinating concept of farm to plate, something I must admit I was unaware of. You see in this model, most of the food that you eat comes directly from a farm owned by restaurant. In this way, many variables can be tweaked temperature for food growth etc and there’s a direct accountability of where the food is coming from with a good contol of the kinds of fertilizers being used. If this means better farming methods for a more sustainable landscape then I’m all for it! The first impression of the cafe is the amazing artwork on the outside walls. The intricate details in it should have been a clue but it only came to fruition oh yeah, pun intended upon writing this review. The concept of farm to plate is encapsulated perfectly in that one image. For a café, I found Scarvelli to be teeming with life. The locals and regulars made great conversations and the air was almost always punctuated with laughter. Using the coffee from Industry beans, I found the taste quite beautiful and sweet with the toffee and blackberry really shining through. The coffee art and presentation when it arrived was impeccable! And I loved their cutlery. One of the great features of this cafe is the wonderful and quaint backyard space that they have. It has the feel of being in the countryside without leaving the city. On dislay they have the various vegetables and herbs that they grow on their farm, a good reminder of what it is that the restaurant stands for. The rest of the outdoor settings is akin to having a family gathering in your own backyard. A nice touch if I must say so myself. The icing on the cake? The bowl of water for our furry four legged compatriots. Scarvelli had won my heart. Within the store, you could see many of their own treats which showed amazing foresight on their behalf. They were making their own product lines which included their own pastries and their own line of sauces. I was so in love with their offering that I immediately decided to grab and taste each of their creations once I left. And then my brunch arrived: Salmon Breakfast. Torn wood fired wild salmon with a poached egg, salad of crisp polenta gems, avocado, quinoa and cress charred corn and seeded mustard salsa. My gawd it looked amazing. The smell alone was intoxicating and out of nowhere, an insatiable appetite took over. The slow cooked salmon just melted in your mouth whilst the various flavours exploded on your palette. The polenta gems are crispy on the outside but soft and fluffy on the inside. And to top it off, I became a fan of quinoa. And, egg and salmon? I was a little dubious. Until the bite. The runny egg, mixed with the delectable taste of the wood fire salmon…. is simply irresitible. This would have to be the first time that I have ever stopped my writing of a review whilst eating. I just sat there and savoured all the flavours. Even when I was reaching capacity, I knew I couldn’t stop. I wouldn’t. I can’t. I had to finish every last piece of food on that plate. The food, service and atmosphere speaks for itself. It was an absolute pleasure dining here and I will be encouraging all my readers to come here.
Delish breakie. Hollandaise was runny which isn't great but everything else at brunch was yummy!
Good place for brunch, coffee is pretty good and they have a good selection of food on the menu. Loved how the place is done up on the interior. Service is also great, staff are very friendly which makes all the difference!
My go to place for brunch. Absolutely wonderful staff, delicious food and fantastic coffee! Love the whole feel of the place and love their paddock to plate philosophy.
Beautiful staff and Beautiful food this place is the best. Exceptional place for breakfast or lunch. The outside area is so lively. Overall a exceptional place for breakfast or lunch.
We had Good life bowl and chicken burger. Enjoyed both. Coffee great too. Nice atmosphere.
Great coffee at a good price. Haven't been for food but lots of people having breakfasts looked pretty happy
Great coffee & great service! A really comfy place, looking forward to going back in and try the food!
Disappointing, pie was cold and my girlfriend's wrap fell apart before she picked it up. Forgot about our drinks order and looked as if we had the plague.
Well priced, great tasting, good variety, friendly staff and a nice atmosphere. Well done.
