The service is shambolic. It takes a surprisingly long time for the coffee to come out even though the places wasn't packed. The food orders around us didn't come out even slightly in the order of ordering and again took ages. It didn't look great either but as I didn't eat here I can't comment on if it was just bad presentation. The coffee was ridiculous hot and didn't taste great.

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 :).

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.

Our cruise ship stayed in Melbourne for two days and we found this place on our very last day. The…read morerestaurant was about a 15-20 minute walk from the port. The majority of the other restaurants did not seem to open until later and we were hoping to find a good place for lunch. This place did not disappoint! It was one of our favorite meals. We ordered a couple of lamb dishes and they were cooked perfectly. I didnt get a chance to take a photo of it, but one of our party members got the wagyu burger with thick bacon and it was really good as well! I also really enjoyed their cappuccino!

My friend recommend this place to me so on a Saturday I decided to finally visit Rock Paper & Scissors Cafe. The cafe it self was simple, open and modern. They have outdoor and indoor seatings, decorated with wooden furnitures, strategically placed plants and white tiles. Their service was friendly, attentive and helpful. Overall, it was a pleasant visit. Reasonably priced and generous portions.

Ordered the Breakfast special of the day - Bacon & Egg in Brioche + Coffee for $8. The B+E brioche - mmm... First bite, and I was hooked. Was even thinking about it the whole day. And even a few days after that. Yup! That good. Coffee-wise, well, let's say, not a lot of places know how to make a good soy latte and this place, they've nailed it. Good coffee makes me a happy person! Got the roast vege roti wrap for lunch on the same day. Extremely satisfied with that too. Filled with vegetables and absolutely lip smacking good. Definitely making this place my regular work day eatery now.

We ordered the salmon benedict, the "mighty" bacon and egg breakfast sandwich, and the house special chicken and waffles. All flavors wonderfully balanced! nothing overbearing. In particular the cherries, tomatoes and arugula to the side of the waffle was a wonderful way to add to the flavor profile. Perfect portion sizes as well. We also had a takeaway waffle and some coffee which was delicious as well. If I was local I have a feeling I would be here quite a lot. Highly recommended.
