Having stopped for lunch several times for lunch at Koukla it's never disappointed and today was even better then expected. By luck we were shown to an upstairs lounge room in a small warm and cosy atmosphere with views looking over Daylesford through a glass door and balcony, sadly it was to cold to go outside but the open fire kept us warm as did the hospitality of the wait staff. The food continues to be incredible with amazing wood fired pizza coupled with an amazing balance for the pastas that we ate as well. Enjoyed every minute of this experience my family loved it and would highly recommended.

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.

I was craving a proper coffee and with a little Internet ninja prowess somehow happened upon legend of Buffalo Girls. Driving down Duke Street we thought perhaps it had closed as no visible signs were around in this residential street. Sure enough, a few hundred meters down a gravel lane and behind a store called Lark, a door ajar led us to this coffee house. It's stripped back. A historic warehouse with ample seating, Vigen's tools of his trade up front and a central high-table for communal coffee drinking or, as the bags laid out tell the tale of a group stamping and bagging session for the beans he roasts in Kensington for Buffalo Soldier (his wholesale side of the business. It's the bean end of the business). It's a family affair here and afar, with most of the beans being sourced from his family's farms in Africa. Make no mistake, Vigen knows he's good (and backs it up with a coffee that is as good as you hope) but knows his limits and while great things are happening for this coffee roaster don't expect him to be in every cafe any time soon. Buffalo Soldier is about maintain quality over quantity. He's the kind of guy who is the eyes and ears of Daylesford. He knew exactly where to direct us for dinner and when it came time to select a bag of beans to take home, I'd initially chosen his Kenyan blend before he stopped and asked me, "Do you want something completely different to what you've tasted before?" and with a nod he started pouring a Rwandan roast into a bag for us. There were a few eats on the counter - freshly baked muffins and biscuits - but this place is about the bean. The exceptionally satisfying bean.

It's a big old converted warehouse colourfully kitted out with impressive street art and an perfectly mismatched selection of retro furniture and fittings. The coffee is just fantastic. Whether you're a latte drinker or after something a little more fancy, Vigen will no doubt whip you up a flawless drink, and do it with a smile. There's something weirdly wonderful about the grungy feel of the place- sneaking away from the cappuccino drinking day spa types and stopping by here to read the paper and get your caffeine fix. Give it a go, for sure.
