    Good food, well priced with very generous servings. Soooo under rated here. Service is great, coffee is to my liking and you'll never leave hungry. Perfect example of a honest cafe doing all the simple things well. It was like this 5 years ago and still is today. No, this is not your super fancy brunch cafe packed with fancy ingredients, however the presentation is good very Instagramable! Well done and we'll see you again.

    I ordered food via uber eats yesterday. The food was delicious but, the fact the coffee was packed in such a way that it was still hot even after i finished the meal.I was so satisfied I immediately reserved a table to dine in for today. The food was so good and the service was amazing. All the staff was friendly and the owner treated us like family. I highly recommend this cafe. Will be visiting more often ❤️

    Friendly staff, great food. Had the Salmon dish. In the past I've had the Haloumi sandwich and Pesto Bruschetta, would recommend them all.

    Scoured for a quick breakfast spot this morning and discovered this little place on the Errol Street stretch of shops and eateries. The pancakes looked the most interesting on the menu and the order was soon taken by attentive staff. Three fluffy pancakes arrived ringed by strawberry syrup, piled stewed rhubarb, honeyed cream cheese, sliced strawberries and garnished by a little greenery and black seeds. The must-have maple syrup was in a little bottle so you can decide how little (or how much) you want. The tart rhubarb, salty cream cheese, sweet maple syrup blended well together, though it's impossible to finish such a generous portion. Fascinated that you can add optional bacon to this dish...? Polite and smiling staff made up for the very claustrophobic and aged setting. Both the front and backyard seating couldn't have been packed more closely together. To go to the backyard seating from the front entrance you have to pass behind the cafe counter and the kitchen. The bathroom is in the kitchen area next to the dishwashing area. It felt like an intrusion into what should be sacred space - the kitchen - but maybe I'm just too conventional. I'll let others be the judge.

    What a cute place this is !! The coffee was nice and I enjoyed the food, my bowl wasn’t too sweet and was the right amount of food to fill Me up nicely. Staff was friendly and the little courtyard at the back is a Gem !!

    Delicious food, coffee, and fantastic service at this rustic little cafe. There's a great little courtyard out the back if you need a quiet break. The burgers were REALLY good. Big and juicy. Thanks 👍

    Absolutely amazing place. Was here for my wife's birthday breakfast and had requested them to make it special and people over there did an amazing job of decorating the table and wall next to it and were also presented with a Birthday pancake specially made by the chef there. Highly recommend for quality food and coffee

    Honestly the cafe is very small and causal, we didn't expect much at the first. However, when I tasted the chai latte, I knew I was at a right place. The food proved I'm correct. Butter chicken is so authentic, even better than some Indian restaurants. Cheese burger shares the same quality with high-rated burger joints. Staff are genuinely kind and friendly, thank you! 店很小但非常好吃,品质绝佳,店员可爱又友善。十分推荐。

    First time here, we had a seat at the table at the back. Really nice café with excellent service. Food was good. Coffee was ok though. Probably need better adjustment to dial in the settings.

    This is one of those places that are right next to some fancy pants insta-influencer type cafes and, we all walk by or line up next door. They’ve been around for years and have a cute little hidden courtyard out the back to dine in. Food is great value and offer some Indian and Italian dishes. Good coffee as well! Check them out!

    Fantastic small cafe with delicious breakfast, coffee and very friendly staff. We visit weekly and it has been great every time. The meals are a reasonable size for the price. They even offer your dog free bacon. Would highly recommend Fandango Cafe for breakfast/ brunch (it is much better than Auction Rooms next door).

    We wish to say a huge thanks to the owners- Sanjay, for an awesome service and for all his warmth he and his staff showed on the occasion of a birthday we celebrated at his venue. We loved the food and the teas and coffee. And feel very spoilt by your hospitality. Thanks again.

    Great vibes and the hostess was really friendly! Red velvet cake was nice but their mocha was very delicious.
