My first visit to Light Years was for breakfast; a delicious and unforgettable meal it was…read more The location was off the beaten path, it took me about 15-20 minutes walk from the nearest metro. I was wondering why such a popular spot would be so isolated? But all is well worth the effort to get here. The venue is brimming with natural lighting, classic charm and warmth. For my breakfast, I ordered the Pixelated avocado (on a sourdough toast) because it just looked so darn intriguing. I didn't expect anything else to be honest, and turned out this was GOOD!! Every single element in this dish has complex flavors that compliments each other. The chili dried air kale, diced pixelated avocado and the soft shell crab was especially stunning. The dish certainly performs to its Instagram ability. For my drink, I ordered their matcha latte; it was strong tasting yet smooth. I could drink this all day! The Light Years is certainly not disappointing in any way, from the beautiful venue to the outstanding food, supported with service and ambiance for days. Easily, my favorite brunch spot in town at the moment and much to recommend you :).

Went to Light Years for Sunday brunch and was relieved to find that, although very busy, the wait…read moretime was only a few minutes. Recently opened at the bottom of a new apartment block just along from the Camberwell tram depot, it should not be confused with Lights in the Attic cafe which is a bit further down Camberwell Road. The fit out is the now common scandi/minimalist affair with a smattering of potted greenery. Coffee is from Dukes, but the star of the show here is the food. All the dishes I saw coming out looked great and were good sized portions. I had the bircher and it was a generous serve, looked pretty and tasted even better. Overall a good value and tasty option for brunch/lunch in the leafy inner east.

Yeah, I sort of discovered it in my wanders, and since it was the first place where I jumped off the train, I decided to give it a go, and it was definitely worth it.

I walked past this place earlier and decided to come back later because it looked like a bar. Well,…read moreit isn't really a bar, it is more a cafe that has a rather nice courtyard out the back. I found that the service too bad, and they were reasonably helpful as well, but the food choices didn't seem to be all that great. Still they did make some rather nice, and quite crispy, fries, so I did actually like that. Yet, the place didn't seem to jump out at me in the way that some places tend to do. I was nice, but not as great as some.

It's a 3.7 for me. Nice sized space inside. Not too noisy either. Lovely outdoor area as well…read more I started with a lovely long black coffee. It was superb. You can't do it much better. I ordered the chilli scrambled eggs. These had a pleasant nicely balanced warm lips generating flavour. I initially thought the dish but a little light on for eggs. The sourdough the eggs were were perched was good but a little bit thick. But, by the end I thought I was probably wrong about those two aspects. The dish was very nice and the size was basically perfect. Other meals were much enjoyed by our party of 6 including the world's most beautiful woman's pumpkin toastswith avocado, chick peas, oven roasted tomatoes, etc. There was delightful service throughout from a number of servers including one in a beanie and black t shirt who was exceptional. Conclusion: a perfectly good well run place with very good food and nice service. Not mush else needed is there.

That was a real shame because I certainly wanted to grab some breakfast, but it looked like that I might have been forgotten in the rush that the staff were in. The tea wasn't bad, but I was a little disappointed that I got looked over for breakfast, and anyway it sounded as if I was going to be waiting quite a while anyway. As such, I ended up going elsewhere.

With both indoor and outdoor dining options, you are able to enjoy a lovely breakfast while enjoying the weather (which was beautiful today), although they have outdoor heating for cooler days too. Hubby ordered the crispy eggs which were scrumptious (I had a nibble, too :) warning, they are spicy which we liked!) while I ordered the eggs Benedict which was just as enjoyable. This place has got it right with their service, the environment, the coffee and the food which combine to make a wonderful experience.
