I also chose a smoked salmon bagel for lunch to take with me. Suffice to say we returned the next morning for brekky and we both purchased freshly made options for lunch. One thing that my colleague mentioned - no bacon on the menu.......nonetheless a top spot and warmly recommended.

This is where the cognoscenti, the knowing locals, arrive before 8 am for coffee and a chat with Luke, Luke, Mohamed, and their excellent crew. Great coffee, wonderful porridge, smashed avo to die for...they have it all.

The presentation of the food was excellent and the service was lovely. The staff even asked if it was okay for other people to share our table, which we were happy to agree to. I also enjoyed a delicious espresso. I will definitely be returning in the future!

This charming cafe has an old cinema-style sign and a spacious courtyard, as well as plenty of vegetarian and vegan options. I decided to try two popular dishes from Melbourne cafes: the baked eggs and the haloumi and vegetable fritters. Both dishes were delicious and reasonably portioned for the price. The fritters were exceptionally crispy and topped with a flavorful romesco sauce that had a hint of caramelization. The baked eggs were fairly standard but were served with a minted labna instead of the usual feta or goat cheese, which was a pleasant change. Whether enjoyed together or separately, these dishes make for a delightful brunch in Williamstown.
