I got food poisoning after eating from this Cafe twice. I had toasted Ham and Cheese Croissants there the first time and felt very sick when I got home after my class. Then the next day I had a sweet chili chicken sandwich and again had bad reflux all evening when I got home. The coffee is pretty basic.

Great little cafe in the middle of the VU campus. Has the best coffee on campus with great alt milk options MilkLab Almond & Bonsoy soy. Helpful, friendly staff, prompt service. Great selection of preprepared meals & cakes, but only a few gluten free options. Also have fresh meals on the menu, I had eggs on toast pictured was delicious! Recommend

I used to go to the reading room cafe. Nice environment with great staff. They have the best hot chocolate and chicken schnitzel sandwich! Missed this place!

My favourite spot in town! The staff is super friendly, helpful and will perfect your order after a couple of visits - I am so particular and yet my soy chai latte is made to perfection! Prices are as in every other cafe; it is part of the Uni so the opening hours depend on Vic Uni as well, but I've never had a slight issue here. Definitely come for coffee and a bite!

The staff here are amazingly friendly. Their coffee is well made and I've never have to wait too long. There's inside seating for the colder days and in summer the doors fold back to allow easier access to the outside seating. A great little Cafe on campus it also has a range of quick heat and serve style lunch options, sandwiches, sausage rolls, pastries, banana bread etc.

lovely place to chill at as a vic uni student, the rolls are ridiculous as to how good they taste! i love getting my BLACK coffee because they make it just how i like it :

I order two sweet chill chicken sandwiches  toasted and paid.  The worker took one and put it in the toaster, A lady behind me order a sweet chill chicken sandwiches too and paid. As I went to collect my order after 30 mins, the lady lies to my face and said there was only one left. When there was clearly two there and she was holding one to give to the lady who order behind me! WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE!

Coffee is good, staff are pretty cool, and there's plenty of seating. Prices however are beyond ridiculous for most the food. If you're on a Uni-student's budget who of their customers aren't? I'd recommend getting a good coffee there, but your lunch elsewhere.

Had a hot chocolate from here during a cold day and I'm glad I did, didn't take very long and staff are very friendly.

This is easily the superior cafe at VU. The atmosphere is nice and calming. Though the view is definitely worse I would say that is made up for with the better interior design and furniture.
