Oh my soul! Why is this place so far away? It is a combination of all my favourite things....random…read morefurniture, great food and drinks and of course...SHOPPING. From the outside, you may feel you are at the wrong place but please do try it. The cafe is attached to the local pool but has it's own area that is closed off and even an outdoor space. Once inside, you will find mismatched comfy couches and furniture mixed in with goods ranging from scarves, mugs, jewelry and tea! Order at the counter and choose a cozy spot to enjoy. Went in a group of 4 and everyone left feeling very full and happy. Highlights were the flat bread (pizza), salmon and seafood bowl. From the drinks side you could have an early tipple or try their teas with funky names.

3.6 Unusual location…read moreattached to a swimming pool and across from commercial businesses in Capel Sound out the back of Dromana. No matter at all. It's a very spacious and quirky breakfast and lunch cafe with heaps of space between tables. There's a communal table too. The whole area has a comfortable spacious feel. Good chance this space was once a bowling alley, I reckon. I chose tomatoes on toast with bacon. Not a cheap dish when you add the bacon at $6 but it's a good dish nonetheless. First off, it's a lovely looking offering. It looks good on the plate. The cherry tomatoes on the vine were absolutely gorgeous. Plump, juicy and cooked perfectly. They were also really nicely seasoned and also had a light smattering of sesame seeds. The spinach on the toast was cooked perfectly, and was nicely warm and sitting up with plenty of moisture still evident. There was also a very good hummus with the dish as well. I was told later that this is made onsite. My only slight criticisms are that parts of the dish were slightly cool when it arrived and the egg was just over and had no running yolk. These are small criticisms though. I really liked the dish a lot. My partner had the chicken schnitzel focaccia with bacon which she liked without ever becoming rapturous. My long black to finish was quite good. A nice coffee. Service was good throughout. Nice music playing too adding to the happy atmosphere. Interesting place. I liked it and would happily return.

This probably should be the best contemporary cafe in this area. There's the makings but it's not…read morethere yet on what I experienced today. Merchant and Maker looks deceptively humble from the street nestled in a small shopping strip. It's actually a spacious cafe with ample inside and outside seating. And, it's located directly across from the breach. It's nicely fitted out in a contemporary way with brightness coming from the predominant white decor. There was lovely music on today. Someone has a really good playlist. Overall there's a lovely atmosphere at this cafe and it's a very nice place to sit a spell. I received a lovely greeting on arrival. Good menu here, but things are a little expensive, $2-3 above city prices in some cases. $6 to add extras to my brekkie eggs seemed a bit OTT to me. I had a gorgeous long black with cold milk on the side and it was very nicely presented on a board. Very very good coffee. Best coffee in the immediate area on the peninsula. I chose poached eggs on sourdough with beans and bacon. The toasted sourdough was too dry, the eggs not quite runny enough to offset the dryness. Another earlier reviewer had mentioned the dryness of the bread and they were right. The bread needs to softened in another way as parts of it were tough to eat. The dish was unseasoned too. I had to ask for salt and pepper which wasn't available on any table. Absolutely beautiful bacon, and superbly cooked. Best bacon I've tasted for a while, with gorgeous crisp edges. It was the best part of the dish. The beans were over sweetened. Like seriously too too sweet. It was a shame as they otherwise had good flavour. It was also a tiny serve for $6. So, overall the meal was not quite there for me. Service was lovely throughout. It has the makings but overall this cafe can do better.

Even though this place has been voted number 1, it certainly didn't live up to its expectations…read more Takeaway coffee was terrible, just tepid milk and water. I had the club sandwich, wasn't even a sandwich just a roll with chicken and bacon. The poached eggs and bacon was minimal for the price. But the worst dish has to be the fried chicken. Even though it was boneless, the meat was all grisly and fatty, leaving little meat and the coleslaw was just cut up cabbage. Even though we made a complaint about how bad the meal was, there was nothing done about it. Overall, very expensive overrated shit.
