One, two, three strikes…read more... After a new owner, a transformation to the décor and a name change to Pera Kahve (previously Blendz) earlier this year the opportunity existed for a turnaround in this small coffee shop off the main drag in Glenelg. However when you're competing with so many other highly regarded coffee joints in one very small locale you need to have all your coffee pots in a row! On the plus side fortunately the menu hasn't been tampered with, coffee beans are also still for sale and there is also now the addition of genuine Turkish coffee and home made soup. Sadly consistently poor service lets the owner and business down regularly. Slow service is barely tolerable but regularly losing orders (I'm talking at least 4+) is inexcusable. An opportunity exists to provide a unique Turkish themed experience with generally good coffee in a comfortable, nicely decorated interior.

Was bitterly disappointed when my pocked eggs resembled hard boiled eggs, not runny at all:/ All in all best to come during the week as there is less traffic inside. The food is very tasty and a varied selection of brunch classics and Turkish inspired meals.

This place was packed on Saturday morning when I made my inaugural visit to my local creperie! What…read morea fantastic welcome to the neighbourhood. This creperie only opened its newly renovated doors on Wednesday. We waited about 10 minutes for a table to become available and we then grabbed a seat at the communal table in the middle of the room. My partner n I ordered 2 lattes which were lovely, they use Fleurieu Milk, and a sweet and a savoury crepe. Our savoury option was the sausage, onion, egg and cheese crepe. The onions were lightly caramelised and the whole dish had been kissed with butter. Our sweet option was banana, chattily, vanilla ice cream and chocolate sauce. It was very nice. I believe they make their ice creams on site. The batter for both the sweet n savoury crepe are different, with savoury being much darker. They also have imported French cider, which is meant to be great with a savoury crepe, as well as a selection of local beers too. I was very impressed on the quality of our meal and service on a day which was obviously very busy and a little bit stressful for the staff of this new local haunt.

Don't let the slightly dated exterior fool you, this café is a hidden gem. The latte art is…read moregenuinely impressive, and the food has been spot-on every single visit. The menu strikes a great balance: not overwhelming, with a good mix of healthy and indulgent options, all reasonably priced. What really sets this place apart is the staff, hands down some of the friendliest I've come across. They remember regulars' orders and greet locals walking past like old friends. The corn fritters are an absolute must-try.

I had high hopes in this place, and I was not surprised when my sister and I got the last table…read moreavailable at 1pm on a Sunday. I had to get Nana that everyone is raving about. I got Ur caffe creation macca for a drink. My sister got a haulomi mushroom brioche and a latte. Nana sure looked pretty but I thought it was okay. Banana bread wasn't too sweet which was fine, but felt bit dry. The yogurt sauce was interesting but not sure if it went well with the whole dish. My macca and my sister's latte were both pretty bitter. If you are a black coffee drinker, I guess it is fine. My macadamia nut pieces were kept getting stuck in my throat. Her brioche was good but not enough stuffing compared to the size of the bun. They are sure creative, but I honestly felt like they were trying too hard with creativity. Sometimes it is best to keep things simple.

Royston Park Cafe, you had me at boozy brunch! Oh yes, this café offers a very impressive brunch…read moremenu accompanied with a range of alcoholic bevvys so either start your weekend right or fight that hangover. This is definitely one of those "word of mouth" cafés that the locals hoard to themselves. Well, not anymore! I am making a record for others to enjoy Royston Park residents! Sorry! In the backstreets of Royston Park, just near Marden Shopping Centre you will find this café. There is a lot of seating, inside and out. Best part is that doggies are welcome. The menu here is large and customisable. I was instructed to order the Tagliolini with blue swimmer crab and salsa rosa. But, with the addition of a poached egg ontop (Thank you Jordan G.). To which I answered, hells yeah pasta for brunch! Gimmie! The pasta itself was really well made. Fresh, homemade and cooked well. What I liked about the rosa sauce and crab as that it complimented the pasta. Just as it is served traditionally. So, as if it was not the centre stage of the dish, it brings it all together. The sauce was creamy, the crab was flaked and evenly portioned through the pasta. What a great flavour! Blue Crab is something that is truly worth celebrating in Australia. It works so well in a dish like this. Well done chef! I did need to add a bit more seasoning, but that could just be my salt inclined palate. Finally, I can see why Jordan likes that poached egg ontop, it just gives an extra depth and richness to the dish. As for the café, you want to get in early. They don't take bookings. This place seems to get packed out, even though it is hidden away from the main streets. But, do know that if you have to wait for a table, it's worth it!

Tucked away in the 'burbs, this delightful cafe could be easily missed - but for a Thursday morning…read moreit was full of people enjoying their mid morning coffee and breakfast. The owners seem genuinely nice and happy to have you there. Great service! Coffees were delivered fast and hot hot hot! Very smooth coffee, although I did add a sugar to sweeten. I ordered the eggs-your-way on toast (my way = scrambled) with mushrooms and spinach, for a very nice price of $12.90. I did need some bacon though, which was an extra $4 (which I find a bit steep) but the portion size was very generous. My partner in crime got the big breakfast with.....2 fried eggs, sourdough toast, homemade baked beans, tomato, spinach, mushrooms, bacon and sausage! What a mouthful (literally!) ! I found the food delicious. Maybe slightly oily (the spinach) but overall I was really satisfied and full to the brim. There is indoor and outdoor seating, and as it was such a lovely sunny day, we sat outside. Only downside for me would be its on the corner of a road, so cars go past a bit, and there is a big Telstra public phone box right in front of outdoor seating area. Which they can't help, but it would be nice to enjoy the leafy street without that in your eyesight. It's a fairly quiet & peaceful street though, with lots of puppy dogs and their owners strolling past. Overall - a lovely place for breakfast! Thank you!

The place was very light and airy. We sat on the ground level, but there is also an indoor balcony area and a couple outdoor tables. I was very happy with the bloody Mary, got a good depth of flavor and a moderate spicy level. I LOVED the whipped avo. It was basically a deconstructed avocado toast. The avo was so light and fluffy and tangy, absolutely amazing on its own, but then to pair it with the feta, pickled rhubarb and the beautiful artisan toast - I ate every last crumb and wished there were more.

Anyone who reads my reviews would know there is a distinct lack of coffee shops around this area…read more... some snack bars have popped up which serve coffee, but they don't have that 'cafe' sort of atmosphere. Imagine my excitement when I saw a 'cafe open soon' sign on the corner building in this block of shops o Diagonal Road ... I wondered whether it would be a granny-ish tea rooms style place, or a trendy upmarket cafe. Well, it's kind of a combination of both, which is probably perfect for this sort of area. I visited the second day after it opened, and it was nearly full - lots of elderly folk, which makes sense in the Warradale area. The cafe is quite modern, with the fitout very simple in white with a red and black menu board, and a gorgeous red coffee machine. The staff are very friendly older people - I ordered a soy latte (yay, they had soy milk!), and though I had to wait a while (since the guy was still learning to use the machine), it was delicious! I get the feeling that this is a new venture for these owners, and it's great to see people this age taking on a new business with enthusiasm! Overall, this is definitely a place I will be visiting again ... next time I'll test out a long black ;)
