Workshop had very quickly become one of my favourites in the south-east. Owned by brothers, I'm…read morewishing I was a part of the family so I had an excuse to drop in more. So why is this place so fantastic? Firstly, the staff here are lovely. Recently, I booked a table of 11 for a Sunday morning and they couldn't have been more pleasant or accommodating! They're happy to chat coffee tasting notes with you and they're genuinely keen to hear what you thought. I found they're constantly going exceeded your expectations, by remembering a detail from the last time you were in. The staff are also keen on social media, especially Instagram, which I believe reinforces how interested the staff are in what their customers think. Secondly, the food is A+. From the classics to the combinations (think hotcakes crossed with a doughnut), everything's been delicious. I like that the menu is broken up into meals and a something light page, so you have a reasonable idea of portion sizing when ordering. Thirdly, these boys (I'm yet to see a girl working?) know what they're doing with the coffee beans. Choosing between pourovers, single origin coffees and cold drips... My guess is you're going to be satisfied no matter what you order! Talk to the staff, let them know what you likely and they're more than happy to make a recommendation. Workshop has given the Glen Huntley area a much needed spark. It's conveniently located (almost) next to the station, which I imagine the train commuters are loving. The fit out is gorgeous, with lots of exposed brick, natural sunlight and some gorgeous lights. One last thing - cutest logo I've seen, go and see for yourself!

Perfect coffee every time. Delicious…read more Good breakfast options from your usual eggs with sides, hotcakes, Bircher and porridge. Lunch offerings are burgers, pides and the likes. But the coffee is the standout. Great spot, right next to Glenhuntly train station. X

There was really just one note, just sweet. It's creme in a donut style bun and on a plate of bananas, figs, honey comb, caramel, honey, pistachio, edible flowers. But there was no balance just sweet on sweet on sweet. Fearing this I ordered smoked salmon just to have a bit of salt. The dish was visually amazing but it was hard to eat and I couldn't finish it. I love the idea but just needed something. Even if the pistachios were salted that would have helped. I get what these guys are trying to do but it just want for me.

A new cafe opens in Melbourne nearly every month but are usually concentrated around the city and…read moresurrounding suburbs. The newest opening comes from the team behind powerhouse cafes Short Straw, Touchwood and Tall Timber and resides in dreamy Carnegie. Located on an street corner in a mostly residential area, Left Field brings it to life with good quality food and coffee and accompanying crowds. It actually took two attempts in the weekend after opening to get a table. Left Field takes on one of the signature design trends of white walls, light timber and exposed light bulbs which offers a clean, open and modern atmosphere. A dark-toned tile mosaic behind the counter area and a scattering of potted plants throughout the cafe add a touch of colour. Seating is a mixture of small tables and booths inside and the same outside along the length of the white painted brick exterior. The food menu, as the name might suggest, is a little left field with Middle Eastern influences. Highlights include the Smashed peas bruschetta, Beetroot cured ocean trout and the Supergreen tacos. The braised Moroccan lamb shoulder with pistachio, cranberry and quinoa tabouleh, feta, green chermoulah dressing and garlic yoghurt. Presentation was a little surprisingly with fine dining-like styling. The lamb shoulder was tender and juicy with an exciting flavour combination provided by the rubbed spices and the fruity tabouleh. Gluten free, dairy free and nut-containing dishes are highlighted for those with dietary requirements. Coffee is from Niccolo with a blend and single origin espresso and filter options. Soy and almond milk is available. There is also a range of teas, soft drinks and cold pressed juices. Service is like clockwork, especially during the busy opening period. Left Field brings a touch of the city cafe culture to the outer south eastern suburbs and is sure to be a local favourite.

Excuse me while I have a bite of lamington to wash down my mouthful of disappointment…read more According to the Danish Australian Cultural Society, this unassuming suburban bakery in Bentleigh is supposed to be THE place to get authentic Danish bread in Melbourne. Well! Not only did they not have Danish bread, they didn't have any bread. At all. I was not a happy camper. In their defense, it was later on in the afternoon, so maybe all the bread had sold out. But it was not, despite the framed 1980's posters displaying Denmark's beauty, a Danish bakery. I was lied to by the internet! I'm guessing the Cultural Society has had it on their list for some time, but failed to notice that it's changed hands and is now just a run-of-the-mill Australian bakery. There's nothing wrong with standard suburban bakeries - in fact, I'm generally a fan - but my boyfriend has been talking up the wonders of Danish bread for weeks now, so we made a special trip out to Bentleigh, hangovers and all, only to be disappointed. I'm just glad Bentleigh has such a wealth of junk stores and op shops so the trip wasn't a complete waste of time.

Because I don't really eat cream I notice the strong cream (sugar?) smell as soon as I walked in. What I can tell you with certainty is that the coffee tastes great and was handed to me speedily. That was once I poured it into a regular cup out of the takeaway cup which I wasn't thrilled with and was filled to full. Upshot, great coffee, friendly staff maybe better to leave the cakes and eating in to your elderly Aunty who might be more partial to lacy type decor. Read Not hipster.
