Was Elena Lindgren at Third Wave Cafe Port Melbourne a mag?
We really enjoyed our brunch experience at third wave cafe. We ordered the spicy ratatouille baked eggs and chilli scrambled eggs which came with their speciality Oink balls. Both were delicious! So much so that we went back the very next day for lunch. I love that this restaurant uses the best quality local ingredients. It has a nice cosy feel and the staff are always nothing but super friendly! View all feedback.

What Sonya Breitenberg dislikes about Third Wave Cafe Port Melbourne:
This restaurant is not serving American BBQ. The food is dry, tasteless, and lacks any smoky flavor. Even cat food would taste better. When I raised my concerns to the staff, they simply blocked me to avoid a negative review. It seems like their only specialty is third wave coffee. View all feedback.

Maybe my review is not justified as you want to come here for their bacon, ribs, burgers and thick shakes.
