What Bomoh doesn't like about Mr Tulk:
Expensive for what they serve and I don't appreciate a replacement cup of coffee (the first was lukewarm) being banged down in front of me without a word. Food OK and the young blonde waitress was very pleasant. There are better places. View all feedback. What Becky Yee likes about Mr Tulk:
Found this place as I needed a place to continue working from the State Library which closes at 6pm on Fridays. This place closes at 7 on Fridays and offers $5 wine during happy hour 4-6pm (made it 5min before 6pm! . Friendly staff, nice ambience and decent house pours! View all feedback.

read moreMr Tulk, a café located at the State Library of Victoria, offers a spacious and contemporary dining experience with a design that pays homage to its historical roots. While some patrons find the food to be passable and the coffee average, the atmosphere and service receive mixed reviews. Some praise the friendly staff and accommodating service, while others criticize the attitude of the employees and the high prices. Despite differing opinions, Mr Tulk remains a popular spot for regular visitors to the library and those seeking a convenient place to grab a meal or coffee.
