Polina's Cafe - Cessnock

Great tasting veggie stack for breakfast. Coffee was great. Friendly and caring staff Looks unassuming from the outside

The coffee is very good. I had to order more as I enjoyed it so much. I chose the eggs Benedict with salmon for breakfast. It was very good and the salmon was generous. I skipped over the smashed avocado option, as I normally find this boring. My wife got this and after testing it I regretted not getting it. This was a revelation. The flavour was superb and the dressing was fantastic. Next time I would pick the smashed avocado straight away. Service was also very good and friendly. Strongly recommended.

Had a lovely breakfast here. My friend and I both ordered the Smashed Avocado and LOVED it. Coffee was great too. The highlight for me was a piano that was tucked in a corner of the cafe being played by two of the employees when it became a little quiet.

Service was a little confusing when we walked as noone greeted us and it was unclear whether we could just grab a table or not, food ordering was at the counter and little disappointed that a couple of the menu options were not available as they had run out of smoked salmon, but the food was good and very quick service once we did order

6 of us for breakfast. We all ordered differently. Egg and bacon burgers went down a treat. Eggs cooked beautifully and lovely bacon with a crunch. Pastries nice. Poached eggs perfect as well with fresh salmon and spinach. Minor problem with only having sourdough and no other breads to chose, but we all enjoyed it. Also great pots of English breakfast tea. With leaves and not teabags. Well done.
