Vegan, vegetarian and gluten free options available. <br/ tofu scramble this is something that I’ve been interested in trying on other menus but never have. Very tasty Thai flavours and you couldn’t tell you were eating tofu. <br/ Smash avo standard, nothing spectacular.<br/ Chilli Scramble was missing chorizo which appears to be a staple of chilli scrambles these days. however, the flavour of the scramble was very nice and had a nice chilli kick. <br/ With all of the meals (except the tofu) only one piece of toast was included. For the price, I was expecting a bigger portion and an extra piece of toast or an extra element (I.e chorizo) would’ve increased volume of the dish. <br/ <br/ ‍very friendly and chatty staff. They were all happy to assist with menu choices. Food and drinks came out hot and on time. <br/

From the point that I entered the place and have my coffee, I feel alive with Axil brand. The latte is so nice that I can give have one cup after the other. <br/ <br/ Also, as this is the first time that I visited the place, given that only limited places are open in Sunday for brunch in Bendigo. I love the food that is being served, ordering a big breakfast but nice proportions so I managed to finish it. <br/ <br/ The service is slightly disappointed as the waiter happen to forget my friend's extra order of poached eggs for her bowl. If the service is also up to standard, I would have given the place a 5 rating instead. <br/ <br/ Generally I enjoy the place and would like to visit it when I am back in Bendigo in the future.

Today, there was only one option available - the vegan bowl. However, it was more like a chickpea salad that was overly oily and salty. I also asked for a vegan smoothie, which the staff made for me, but the waitress didn't realize that yogurt and honey were not vegan. When she left them out, the smoothie turned out to be terrible.
