Motorcycle rider’s heaven cafe with a lot of passion for bike, beans, and baking. Greg and the staff are super friendly and welcoming. Freshly baked pastries and roasted coffee. Explore and inquire about the stories of vintage motorcycles and helmets while enjoying a sip of coffee.

A little hidden Gem of Blackburn if you ask me, the outside doesn't look like much to be honest, however the inside is great. Was thinking of keeping this gem to myself but it was to good not to share. The brunch menu was amazing and i'll be heading back there, the coffee was great to. The staff were lovely, you can see the bakery and the coffee roaster from pretty much any seat in the place and it adds to the vibe. A mix of a good cafe whilst still holding to the character from what i can see of the owners love of motorbikes. I can see how this would be over looked from the outside however i'd recommend for anyone in the area that you put this cafe on the top of your list.

This little cozy place at Blackburn has surprised me a lot. I went to grab a coffee after my gym and found it’s really amazing. They played Australian Open on TV, so I ordered my iced chocolate and took a seat on the sofa to chill. I can spend whole day here.

This was my second visit to the cafe. While I read from the reviews that their pies are fantastic, I can’t resist coming back for the eggs benedict. The dish combines classic eggs benedict with flavourful pulled pork and creamy croquettes, balanced perfectly with a touch of tangy apple sauce. The croquette does lose a bit of its crispiness after sitting in the sauce for a while, but overall, it’s a delicious, satisfying dish! I just wish this cafe were closer to home!

Been going here for brunch during my lunch break for almost half a year. Their menu is a bit small and but everything on it is great. (Their coffees pretty good too)
