Brighton Road Cafe

New owners and they are all about coffee. Super tasty coffee and lovely warm vibe in the cafe.

Went in for a bite and decided a classic hearty sausage roll $9.90 and mango smoothie $8 was the way to go. When the mango smoothie came out it was white, I took a sip and had to double check my order wasn't wrong but the server confirmed it was mango. I'm really sorry but there must have been 2 small pieces of mango blitzed up with 99% vanilla ice cream cause I only got the faintest of a taste on one or two of the sips. Not sure about their other smoothies but certainly don't get mango expecting anything.. The sausage roll had potential but the 'flaky' puff pastry was soggy and soft like the $2 ones you heat in the microwave. Nothing like the flakey delight of a double sized hearty sausage roll you usually get. Our server was lovely and friendly however, no problems there at all. And I hate feeling "harsh" but also I don't like getting disappointing food, sorry team. This place is adequate if you're hungry but not to indulge in I would say.

Great food and wonderful service, came back here twice now. first time was just ordering an coffee but this time actually have time to enjoy the food. Strongly recommend the egg benny with bacon as they use Hellers honey streaky bacon and their homemade hollandaise sauce, you can really taste the hint of honey. Organic food ingredients match with Italian brand organic coffee. Price they offered its worth for spending on it. Roadside free parking for 2 hours is great for catching up with friends too. We loved it. Thank you again.

Quiet cafe tucked away in the Parnell suburbs. Lovely coffee and the pies are delicious!

Delicious food and beautiful place and the good service

Hi. We went there today and I had sweet corn fritters, they told me they were made the same day, but were hard and sloggy. When I explained that they didn’t taste fresh, he poked it with his finger and took it out the back. The salsa was so hot and for the money, we paid I would not go back. It used to be such a beautiful cafe, with so much homemade stuff.

Good straight forward food.

Found a park almost outside the cafe. It was about 2:00 pm on a Friday afternoon when we stepped into a space full of conversation. The cafe was abuzz with an early afternoon crowd and I was surprised by the number of people considering it was well past lunch service. The shelves were picked over but the Leader and I selected the pie and vegetables. I ordered a cappuccino, double shot, small cup with chocolate for the Leader and that arrived very quickly and was consumed almost as quickly. The pies were a long wait. There were fewer customers arriving than leaving at the time and I did begin to wonder if the order was lost. I was amused by an article from one of the selection of magazines on offer and the meal arrived. It looked great and tasted as good. So good that I was straight on to the meal as soon as it was placed in front of me. I was licking my lips and making satisfied piggy noises before I realised to had forgotten to take a picture of the meal. Over all, happy to pay and will return.

Excellent breakfast, one of the best fried mushrooms I've had for sure but don't insult your tastebuds with the 'hollandaise sauce'...

The glass was not clean. It got red lipstick mark on the glass!!! And I drunk the water! But they refund some of the meals which is good. The food itself actually was nice.
