I love these places because it just adds so much more charm to the place, and it gives a much better vibe as well, especially when some of the curios happen to be some really nice artwork. Oh, and the tea was also really nice, but then again I was probably distracted a bit.

Some call this cafe restaurant at the Heronswood estate, Heronswood Restaurant. Others call it…read moreFork to Fork. The latter name comes from the concept here. Organic veggies from very nearby on the estate itself. Garden fork to table fork and zero food miles. This is a seriously stunning location half way up Arthur's Seat with a great view of the bay. On a gorgeous warm, still sunny day like today, it was close to paradise. If you're astute enough and you score the right weather, there's a couple of tables here with magnificent views. They can be reserved. After a wander through the excellent nursery and a visit to the shop, we found ourselves at the restaurant for lunch. There's a good short menu here with ample to choose from. We shared the grazing plate and the pumpkin, leek and blue cheese tart and salad. The grazing plate features chicken roulade, goat cheese, carrot with aged cheddar, Heronswood egg, house relish, salad and bread. Both dishes were generously sized and very tasty. This is rustic, wholesome and really good food which we enjoyed thoroughly. The coffee to finish was very good too. This was a very pleasant lunch. Service was lovely, polite and efficient throughout. Heronswood is such a lovely place. We will return soon.

4.1 Milkbar & Co is…read morea 4.1 in my book. It is agreeably fitted out in the modern style. This is apparently the result of a recent renovation which has been thoughtfully and tastefully executed. The style is good but is in no sense overdone. It feels and is pleasant. It helps the mood too that good music was playing as well when we arrived. The food was great. My beef brisket burrito was recommended by our server. This was a very sound recommendation because it's a cracking dish. It's a really good thoughtful brekkie brunch dish and one that'd be very at home st any of the well rated Melbourne brunch cafes. I could barely fault it. It had just the right amount of good flavoursome meat. This was accompanied by Perfect melted cheese and great black beans. The salsa was a beauty too. Finely chopped and very flavoursome as well with even some carefully chargrilled corn. Only the bed of rocket seemed a bit rough and ready and even then my judgement might be a bit harsh. I was worried the dish might be too small when it first arrived but again I was wrong as the size ended up being spot on. There was a slight understated spice to the dish which I thought was lovely. Sadly I didn't get the chance to make enquiries about that. This was the best of this style of dish that I've had for quite a while. It really was very nicely composed and beautifully made and cooked. It had me slightly in awe actually and I'd have great trouble ordering anything else if and when I come here again. My partner had the ham cheese baguette which she enjoyed very much. She was particularly taken with the bread which were were advised came from Laurent. Our coffees to finish were excellent too. Up there with the best. So why is this place not rated higher? We can only speculate but we did find the service here a bit languid. We had to chase a server to put an initial order in. My dish was put down roughly in front me of dislodging some of the carefully arranged garnish. My milk in a jug with my coffee had little blacks things in it too. None of this is serious stuff. I gained an impression that there were a few details holding things back. We will definitely come here again. If they iron a few of the little details out, this place could easily score more than 4.

If I ever go back to Australia again, I am 100% certain I will come back here. The maple Canadian bacon alone is worth the trip to this small cafe.

I hope that many more people will be able to find out about this small eatery because it's totally worth it.

A cleverly named business, the Village People boasts some very captivating wall art inside and is more of a play on it being an actual small town rather than a Village People themed cafe. You won't find an Indian or construction worker serving you breakfast unfortunately. They have quite a large range of options available for eating and drinking. I tried the breakfast burger which had homemade beetroot relish on it and was quite tasty, however the burger as a whole was a bit hit and miss, quite large but not super flavoursome. Their coffee is pretty good and meets the Melbourne coffee snob standard :) Toilets are located outside of the café but not too far. It gets busy among the locals so grab a table early.

My two friends and I were even given free coffees! Don't mind if I do! They really make conversation with you and care about whether or not you enjoyed your meal. That definitely is a rarity when it comes to businesses nowadays. This place probably has the best customer service I've seen anywhere! Food: They have delicious meals all at reasonable prices. My two friends both ordered Big Breakfasts, which is reported to be delicious. I personally ordered the Eggs Florentine with Smoked Salmon and it was honestly incredible. I even wanted to lick my plate clean. Filling, great value, absolutely delicious, you cannot go wrong. The only negative thing I have to mention is that there is a decently long wait time so don't go in if you're already starving and a bit impatient. The wait time is worth it in my opinion for the delicious and fresh food, but it's still something to be wary of.

We were told to go to Blackbird by a local shop owner and were so glad we took their advice! Blackbird Cafe is off the main drag down a laneway about halfway down Main St. We went for breakfast on a Sunday morning and though it was busyish they were happy to accommodate a table for 6 without a reservation. Breakfast menu had all the usual faves plus a couple of great vego options for us so yay - Vegan Breakfast and Baked Eggs. Our friends had The Big Breakfast, Eggs Florentine and Avocado Smash. Also each coffee comes out with a itty bitty piece of cake on the side - too cute! The Big Breakfast definitely lived up to its name - huge! The hollandaise on the eggs was raved about and my Baked Eggs were AH-mazing. Lesson learnt - listen to locals! Check out Blackbird if you're ever down that way.
