Myself and a friend went to have lunch at this cafe near my work and shocked we didn't come sooner!…read moreThe menu is filled with great options and the service was very good. We were politely greeted when we arrived and the lovely man made sure our table was level. I ordered the pulled chicken salad which was amazing with all fresh ingredients and the roasted red peppers made it! My friend ordered the avo smashed and was also impressed. Service was fast and the pricing was very very decent!

Called in impromptu for weekday brunch. Busy inside abit cool to sit outdoors, but lots of seating…read more Very different and unusual menu. Lots of tasty options including the massive muffins on the counter. Service was awesome and The Smiles really are FREE . The extra touches like flaked salt, lemon in the complimentary water, meals served on wooden plates all add to the charm of this bordering hipster cafe.

When you walk in the delicious smell hits you and immediately makes your mouth water! All available the delicious food offerings are tauntingly on display which will either help or hinder your ability to decide what to eat! Coffee is sport on and staff, though busy, are polite and efficient.

I've got to break it down into two components; food and drink & service Food and drink - 5 stars Had a coffee, half a pie and a spinach and ricotta roll - all of these were fantastic. Seriously, the Thai pie was outstandingly good. Service - 1 star (we got served) As per the previous review, the staff here have more attitude than a snarly sarcastic French waiter. Come here for the food. It's worth it if you can resist punching the staff.

I've dined at North & Eight three times now & I've been impressed by the food on each visit…read more It's true there is limited parking directly outside (it's on a main road) but there is plenty available just a very short walk away. On my first visit I enjoyed the veggie fritters, they were super tasty & very filling. It was hard to not opt for them again on my next visit. Instead I tried the polenta chips & mushroom ragout, it looked interesting but tasted fabulous with a nice zingy tomato relish. On my most recent dining experience I had the Korean fried chicken burger with a side of polenta chips & this did not disappoint either. Moist chicken, a slightly aromatic slaw & a lovely brioche bun. The polenta chips came with a hint of tomato relish. I was a little disappointed that as an extra side dish I only received 3 polenta chips but I needn't have feared as coupled with the burger my tummy was left sufficiently full. I've observed many dishes leaving the kitchen & they all look delicious. I'll be sure to try their poached chicken salad on my next visit, which will no doubt be soon. North & Eight have a variety of cakes, muffins & pastries as well as yummy ButterBings. So if you have any space left after your main course you can thrown in an extra treat to satisfy your sweet tooth. The coffee is good in my opinion, there are a number of teas on offer & also there take on the freak shake. North & Eight I believe offers fresh, tasty food that is reasonably priced. Generally an abundance of staff means that service is prompt. A nice fresh fit out makes for a great dining experience overall!!!

With…read morequeues out the door a regular Saturday occurrence, this place is equally good takeaway as they are eat in. Pop in for a hit of coffee on a Sunday morning, when the dose from the Nespresso machine is just not cutting the mustard. Indulge in their Asian-influenced brunch menu when you've had one too many cocktails the night before, and your go to seeds / kale / superfoods will never satiate your hunger (then it's the Korean fried chicken open waffle you want). Service is always attentive, and it feels like the staff are all from the same family - descendants of immigrants, aiming to slap lashings of flavour onto bland breakfast staples, whilst delivering portions the size of your head. Good coffee, lovely Scandi-esque atmosphere and certainly worth the wait / struggle with parking / children, to eat there. You will leave feeling satisfied and ready to pop in the next time there's no queue out the front.
