    First things first - I got to give them credits for replacing the leather sofas they had around the…read morewindow. Sure In its hay-day the old sofas were beautiful, but over time with constant use, radiation from the sun, and also general wear & tear; the new sofa just provide a refreshing new sight and feel. However I do recommend that they might as well just tinting the windows altogether since there isn't much of a view outside and the sun shines straight at your face. Which can be very uncomfortable. Me and my friends ordered the Thai Calamari Salad ($23.90), the Pan-Fried Gnocchi ($23.90) and the Satay Chicken ($24.90). My friends have told me that their meals (the Thai Calamari Salad and Satay Chicken) were excellently made, very rich with falvour and very hearty meal. The presentation of the meals is simply very articulate. I had similar experience with my meal (the Pan-Fried Gnocchi), the gnocchi was soft, caramelised and cooked all the way through excellently; which is quite an achievement considering cooking gnocchi are easy to make (unless your making from scratch) but extremely difficult to perfect. - you don't cook it long enough and the gnocchi will be hard in the middle; cook it too long and the gnocchi will start to become soggy. The sauce was very creamy, smooth and silky which is simply magnificent. However I did find that the sauce was quite bland, like no seasoning was added to it at all. The cheese and coriander garnish did compensate for it a little but not enough. My friends thought that the service was a bit slow, like it took over half an hour to get out meals, however I did believe that its because they were having a busy night. All and all, my friends and I really did have a wonderful night and hope we get mkre chances to visit this place again.

    Great fast service, steak needed to be cooked as asked and peppercorn sauce barely hinted at any…read morepeppercorns. Nachos were ok as was the iced chocolate but the so called New York cheesecake was extremely disappointing to someone who is fussy/connoisseur but their cakes come from an external supplier. Great atmosphere for a pub like venue though. For price I expected more!

    I absolutely love it! At first glance this is a small little cafe, but I STILL get the cravings…read more Customer Service: The staff is super friendly and amazing. My two friends and I were even given free coffees! Don't mind if I do! They really make conversation with you and care about whether or not you enjoyed your meal. That definitely is a rarity when it comes to businesses nowadays. This place probably has the best customer service I've seen anywhere! Food: They have delicious meals all at reasonable prices. My two friends both ordered Big Breakfasts, which is reported to be delicious. I personally ordered the Eggs Florentine with Smoked Salmon and it was honestly incredible. I even wanted to lick my plate clean. Filling, great value, absolutely delicious, you cannot go wrong. The only negative thing I have to mention is that there is a decently long wait time so don't go in if you're already starving and a bit impatient. The wait time is worth it in my opinion for the delicious and fresh food, but it's still something to be wary of.

    Hidden gem! Great food & great coffeee. Breakfast is sorted…read more There is no shortage of lovely cafes and restaurants on Main St in Mornington - you are certainly spoiled for choice. We were told to go to Blackbird by a local shop owner and were so glad we took their advice! Blackbird Cafe is off the main drag down a laneway about halfway down Main St. We went for breakfast on a Sunday morning and though it was busyish they were happy to accommodate a table for 6 without a reservation. Breakfast menu had all the usual faves plus a couple of great vego options for us so yay - Vegan Breakfast and Baked Eggs. Our friends had The Big Breakfast, Eggs Florentine and Avocado Smash. Also each coffee comes out with a itty bitty piece of cake on the side - too cute! The Big Breakfast definitely lived up to its name - huge! The hollandaise on the eggs was raved about and my Baked Eggs were AH-mazing. Lesson learnt - listen to locals! Check out Blackbird if you're ever down that way.
