) "Staff are lovely, cosy atmosphere at an awesome location."
"Small, retro space with friendly service."
"A very cool place too with its original music posters/screen prints."
4 Popped in for a coffee, and even though the door sign said closed, they were actually open. Its designed to make you look! Coffee was great, so I bought a bag. Had some cool posters on the wall. I think I would have bought the Johnny Cash one if it was up for sale! Will be back!
5 as a tourist from malaysia im amazed by the relationship between the owner and the locals. when we order our coffee, wehv a lil chat with the owner, lovely friendly owner. Then, good coffee as well
5 As close as I'll ever get to 'Lukes Diner'–in the best way possible. All that's missing the 'no cell phones' sign. The best coffee. Rad interior design - A mix of vintage and industrial, original band posters x with modern art posters. Aligned books in the window. Totally enjoyable banter between the customers - always leave with a smile. And they're always happy to swing my daughter a sneaky marshmallow on the side.
5 The coffee here is exceptional. But the real magic, is the service: the owner has this incredible knack for making you feel like you’re about to go out and conquer the world (latte in hand, of course). Add in the cute, cozy ambiance and you’ve got yourself the kind of café that makes you want to linger. A must-visit spot for anyone who takes their coffee - and their morning pep talks - seriously.
5 Hands down best coffee around . Lee is a wizard when it comes to whipping up a brew . Always good for a laugh and chat when you go into the shop . Love going in on them Rainy days to get out of the weather and charged up on caffeine.
5 On holidays so was looking for a good morning coffee within walking distance of accommodation. Saw tradies and lots of people so gave it a go. Very happy I did. Great coffee. Very friendly service. Knew locals by name and coffee order. Looked after the kids too. Went back of the second day as was so good. Wish this was my local. He did try to get us to make the tree change so we can be near here. Thanks for a great start to the day.
5 If you’re in the area you have to stop here for a coffee! One of the best I can remember having in Melbourne. Lee’s a wizard with the soy milk latte art and very nice guy to boot!
Many guests love their excellent coffee, especially the Long Black, and the homemade Banana Bread is a favorite quick bite.
It’s perfect for both—a cozy spot to linger with great coffee or a casual stop for a quick caffeine boost.
