What Добрыня Рыбаков dislikes about John Smith Cafe:
Ordered the mushroom breakfast, I was so excited for the combinations of flavour but what I got was cold mushrooms on a burnt slice of rye toast covered in balsamic vinegar with hard poached eggs. My partner ordered poached eggs on toast with avocado on the side - he got hard poached eggs that were cooked but cold inside and 2 slices of bread, not toast and smashed avo with heaps of raw red onion in it.

Although the menu is limited (focused), they are pretty good at what they do. <br/ The coffee is easy to drink yet strong and the service is very friendly. <br/ <br/ Food wise, the options they offer is quite standard, comprise of all day breakfast items and burgers. <br/ They are generous in serving and cheap. We are very satisfied with the experience.

Cute place. Good food (I got the avo and goats cheese and particularly liked the added pomegranate, chilli wasn’t too spicy either) and good ambience to study in. However there were no PowerPoints.

Weekends mean breakfast and brunch catch ups! The green bowl is a healthy brunch option, makes you feel good on the inside. “Dukkah Eggs” poached eggs, dukkah, burnt butter, caramelised onions, labneh, pomegranate, fresh herbs on toast. Such a pretty dish. John Smith is also known for the variety of “eggs benny” dishes, they did look pretty delicious, will need to order one for myself next time.
