Smashed avocado, peas & mint
Renee F.

I may be a little biased... but how awesome is Goodwood? Close to the city and fab public transport options... plus great spots for tasty noms... Trouble & Strife included. The menu, written upon brown paper that adorns the outer wall, evolves over time, but the dishes I've tried have each been so tasty and a little 'different'. The smashed avocado with peas, fetta and mint was a fine example of how messing with expectations a little delivers delicious results. The coffee here is top notch and they use the Rewardle card system, which I appreciate as it saves me filling my purse with yet another loyalty card. I'm torn between 4 & 5 stars... I think I need to eat in a couple more times before I up them to 5 stars... I'm a toughie at times, but Trouble & Strife are pretty damn good.

I've been here a few times now. Every time I've come the food has been lovely and nice and healthy too. This time round I got the house beans (+bacon) which had heaps of flavor. I didn't need to add the bacon, I could only eat half the amount on my plate-so big serves! This is a small cafe though and I haven't always been able to get a table when I've come. My coffee tasted a bit weird and I couldn't work out if they'd accidentally given me soy milk (like my friend had ordered) or not. If they didn't, I wouldn't recommend the coffee. If it was soy, I don't like soy! Lol.. The food will take me back again and I'll put my coffee mystery to rest too. I would actually give it 3.5 stars...

Good coffee and healthy muesli. Eggs were good lots of bacon in a serve our puppy got a breakfast…read moretreat

Woohoo feels good to put up a review after a long break! I've known about the Middle Store after…read moreseeing it on Yelp some months ago, but I didn't notice it was around where I live. It was a friend who wanted to come here and after he reminded me it was Rose from Masterchef who ran the cafe, I agreed to try it. While that's pretty awesome, something way cooler happened! Towards the end of our meal, Georgia Barnes (2015 runner up) and Jessie Spiby (2015) came into the cafe for coffee. Lucky us right? My only regret was not asking for a photo with the three of them. Onto the review. As usual I was pretty indecisive and tend to go for a burger option if I can't decide, so I ordered the lamb kofta burger while my friend went for the Lebanese Mezze Breakfast. The wait wasn't too lengthy and my burger was pretty tasty. It's a different type of burger than what I'd normally have, because this one was really fresh and quite light. There was plenty of hummus along with pickled cabbage, cucumber, tomato and a bed of rocket. It stands out visually with the colours. The kofta patty was not bad but I felt it was a bit on the thin side, because there was quite alot of turkish bread that formed the buns. And yeah, as a result the whole experience was quite bready for me but thanks to the hummus and the veges the burger wasn't dry. My friend also wanted to try one of their house made tarts as well so I just had a little bit. It was a passionfruit curd one and it was decent, not too sweet and refreshing due to the passionfruit. But at $4.50 for what's essentially a mini-tart it's getting on the pricey side. I would have gone for a baklava if I was craving a sweet pastry. The interior is very clean looking and inviting, on par with alot of the nicer cafes around the city. The prices are solid ($10.50) for the lamb burger and the breakfast ($15.50). The location is one reason I'd come back- no need to drive to the city just for brunch or lunch. There's a few other things I'd like to try as well if I come back. Overall, a good find and the timing of our visit was impeccable!
