    One of the best cafes in Melbourne. The vibe, food and staff are awesome. Have been there many times. Everytime we try something new, it's always good. The food is great. Almost every dish is a must try. We love their Shakshuka, hotcakes, bowl of fries and french toast. We also tried chicken salad which was good as well. Coffee is great as always. Must visit cafe. Latest thing we tried was The dirty bird(fried chicken) burger. It came with a side of fries and aioli. The bun was juicy and the chicken was nice and crispy. Also, we had the white chocolate raspberry muffin which was good but not great. And always great coffee.

    This is a very comfortable cafe and industrial look-n-feel. Lots of sofa seats. Plenty of tables and seats, definitely able to have social distance at any table. Food are impressive and huge serving too. Chicken burger is just perfect. Crunchy outside, soft inside and very tasty too. Serve with a very nice soft bun which slightly toasted. Love it where it comes with short version of shoestring chips. Even chips are coated with quality herbs and salt. Chili egg is huge and also lots of veggies and herbs. Very healthy and considerable spicy. Very good balance. If eggs can be not fully cooked, it will be even better. They definitely have quality coffee and drinks. When dine in, diner can choose still water or sparkling. It just make a normal meal to the next level. Plenty of parking nearby and walking distance from train station. Staff are very friendly and helpful too. A really nice cafe indeed. They also support local business and had local craft sold at the cafe. There are few big tables if any large groups of diners required. This cafe also have kids menu.

    Best coffee in the Wyndham area right now. Food is delicious, staff are really friendly and service is quick. Only slight negative is it can be pretty loud in there when it's a full house, but the coffee makes up for that.

    Thank goodness you're here. Watton Street finally got a cafe worth travelling far for. My chicken burger was epic. My coffee was spot on. The avo on toast and the eggs Benny was executed flawlessly. Service was a bit on the nonchalant side but well meant. Who knows, maybe Eastsiders may be pop over to Werribee now. Welcome to the wild West.

    Amazing place, amazing food, amazing taste and the overall ambience was chic & lively and all HALAL. Portionwise the eggs benny dish felt a bit lacking, could have added a bit more. The French Biscoff Toast was really good.

    Place is very spacious, very friendly service! The food we ordered were all very tasty! THE B.I.G. Lots of meat plus haloumi. Really enjoyed the beef rasher 😋 MOROCCAN CHICKEN BOWL Juicy tender tasty chicken and the haloumi pops were awesome 😻 Croffin Kind of a cross between a croissant and muffin. Interesting texture, sweet and not as heavy as it looks - very enjoyable 😸

    Beautiful food and great wines. Very hygienic and super fast service. We were in and out. But I guess that also depends what time you go there. We were like before 9am and that was extremely great visit. Worth every penny.

    Notorious Espresso stands out in a class of its own in Werribee. It's modern minimalistic decor makes you feel welcome from the moment you step through the door. The staff are incredibly attentive and helpful and the food + coffee is the best in town. Would highly recommend a visit!

    What an awesome cafe located centrally in Werribee with vegetarian options. Immediately I was greeted by incredibly friendly staff and was offered some great advice on recommended food and drinks. The Nutella hot chocolate is a must! Simply delicious! I had the smashed avo and added eggs and that was also very yummy. Note that on weekends I believe there is a surcharge and that you may have to wait for a seat (it is busy!). My Smashed Avo and eggs as well as my hot chocolate came to about $40 which is pricey but I don't think I've found any other cafe that has such flavourful dishes! My favourite cafe around!

    Came in for brunch on weekday (around 1030am), the place was buzzing. Finding a seat is not a challenge and the service team is pretty fast. However, the space has a minimal acoustic surface causing a challenge to converse as the background noise was over the top. The service was good, order taker was friendly and knew the menu pretty well. Though we had to repeat our order three times and got the wrong order at the end. Perhaps cause the order taker got distracted as it was a busy time. Food and coffee taste great! no complain there.

    Great place for breakfast and brunch ! Was a bit of a wait time to get a proper table that could accommodate 4 adults and 2 toddlers but couldn’t complain as food was absolutely worth the wait. The portion was quite large and filling. They do have kids friendly menu. Definitely a must go, when looking for a brekkie place in Werribee.

    Very friendly and helpful staff. They didn’t even look twice when my friend came in with her service dog. Good coffee, good quality food. The music was a bit loud, but not painfully so. I will certainly go back again. More comments in wheelchair accessibility section.

    This is literally one of the best cafes of Melbourne’s western suburbs- we have recently moved to this area and we’re amazed that how easy and quick it was to book online a day ahead for a group of eight people and then have the best possible service for the breakfast… everything was great, the staff members were super friendly and helpful, the food was great and the coffee was absolutely 5/5!

  • 5/5 Ziya O. 2 months ago on Google • 37 reviews New
    This place just keeps ascending to new heights every time I come back for a visit. Both the food as well as the interior design aesthetics. Coffee grind bang on as always, and the staff are never too stressed to stop and help. Prices are a little on the upper echelon however serving sizes are good and you won’t leave feeling unsatisfied.

    This was the best breakfast I’ve had in YEARS!!! Fresh, nourishing and bursting with flavour. Staff was lovely and the food came out fairly quickly despite how busy it was. The smoothies were absolutely heavenly also! For a green smoothie you’d expect some bitterness but it was surprisingly sweet and addictive 😋 My husband got the pancakes which were super fluffy and creamy. I got the Mushroom Melody for myself. I’ll be back here!

  • 5/5 Dave C. 3 months ago on Google • 7 reviews New
    Absolutely amazing food and service. We stopped here for breakfast as we were driving through and definitely stopped at the right place. Busy place with nearly as many staff as there are customers which makes for great service. Coffee is awesome (and I'm bit of a coffee snob), shakshuka is incredible, hot cakes was very colorful and tasty and the mushroom medley was beautiful.

  • 5/5 Jessica C. 7 months ago on Google
    First time trying this place out after hearing some good things. I had the French toast which has biscoff toppings, banana and ice cream. It was absolutely delicious. I also ordered an ice mocha, but they forgot to add the ice cream which is my favourite part, but I didn't mention it lol. The service was good and friendly:) keen to try some more.

  • 5/5 Pedro P. 11 months ago on Google
    Fantastic coffee (high quality / not too milky), great food at a reasonable price, lovely people that work and run the place. Spent a few hours working from my laptop in the sun sitting on the high table - staff were very accomodating and even offered for me to keep working away while they were closing up

  • 5/5 Sonia 11 months ago on Google

  • 5/5 Maysam T. 4 months ago on Google
    Yet another unique cafe with a lot of tasty options. Coffee is lovely. Smash Avo is something and you should try Shakshuka! It’s a Turkish omelette with an amazing taste!!

    Dear Notorious Team and H, I just wanted to take a moment to thank you for the wonderful brunch experience I had at your restaurant. From the moment I walked through the door, I felt welcomed and comfortable in the warm atmosphere you've created. Your staff were friendly, attentive, and made me feel right at home. The food was absolutely delicious, and I could tell that the chefs put a lot of care and attention into preparing each dish. Every bite was bursting with flavor, and I especially appreciated the use of fresh, quality ingredients. Both my parents feel extremely happy. Overall, I had a fantastic time at your restaurant and I'm already looking forward to my next visit. Thank you for providing such a welcoming and enjoyable dining experience. I will definitely be recommending your restaurant to my friends and family. By the way, the Turkish bread --- Absolutely AMAZING! Best regards, Sarah Liang

    Entered this cafe at sharp 7am 😁, as I was looking for good breakfast options in and around werribee. Tried their Cappuccino and Fritters breakfast, to be honest both turned out to be amazing hence the 5 stars, good start to my morning. But cost wise they are on a bit higher side compared to other cafes at Watton Street, werribee.

    WHERE: Werribee WHO: Notorious Espresso WHAT: Specialty coffee lunch & brunch Wander by the outdoor dining & enter the street art inspired space, pass a small retail area and walk by the counter to the rear dining space. The group ordered from an extensive drinks menu, from the turmeric latte, cappuccino to the cold brew everyone agreed the coffee was great. Opened 7am to 2pm everyday of the week the menu is brunch and lunch plus counter offerings like muffins, cakes, pides & flat bread sandwich. We managed to sample a great range of the menu. Stand outs were the Lemon Meringue Hotcakes (too pretty not to order!) and the Corn and Super Green Fritters, which smelt amazing as they arrived at the table. The venue is busy up until close which was great to see but if you are noise sensitive you will be more suited to the outdoor seating in front of the café.

  • 5/5 Damoforce 3 years ago on Google
    They really know their coffee down at Notorious! Great service as well. The hotcakes were the winner on the day!

  • 5/5 Nuzhat Z A. 2 years ago on Google
    Our favourite weekend breaky place! The big brunch is worth trying Coffee is 👏

  • 5/5 David C. 3 years ago on Google
    Look, it goes a bit like this. They do an Eggs Benny. It's got poached eggs and slow cooked lamb on hommus buttered toast and hollandaise. I do honestly believe this is the only known cure for vegetarianism and veganism. It's amazing. If you don't visit this cafe and order this straight away, there's honestly something wrong with you. The coffee is also very good. The end. Please enjoy this delicious delicacy responsibly.

  • 5/5 yvonne j. 2 years ago on Google
    Good food and great coffee. Friendly and accommodating staff. Been there quite a few times. Even better now that they have expanded to a bigger area.

  • 5/5 Melissa P. 4 years ago on Google
    Well worth the visit on the Main Street in Werribee and certainly one of the better breakfast spots in the area. Plenty of seating, including outside with some communal tables which makes for a nice “city” vibe. All the staff are very friendly and knowledgeable with table service being excellent with well timed service and clearance of plates. Coffee is great but the food is even better. Can’t go wrong with the French toast. Very pretty on the plate. Overall a great cafe which you could visit over and over and wouldn’t be disappointed.

  • 5/5 Amy E. 1 year ago on Google
    Easily 5 stars! Delicious food, great coffee, great service. On one of the main streets of Werribee, where the shops are. It was quite busy, so glad we booked a table. Parked in one of the two hour spots which was plenty of time. Coffee first, delicious. For lunch/brunch, I had the chicken burger, delicious. Really tender chicken, and the chips had this zesty flavour. Yum. My friend had this baked egg thing with Turkish bread. Looked good. She was quite happy with her choice. I’d go back again and maybe go for the eggs bene.

  • 5/5 Mariam 1 year ago on Google
    Accommodated my late online booking and arriving an hour early🫣 considering its a very busy cafe, we surely appreciated the staff supporting our last minute change request. Indeed welcoming, attentive throughout our meal. Shakshuka & the Turkish egg meals were indeed favourites. Definitely returning 🤍 Halal 💯

  • 5/5 Iris Del R. 2 years ago on Google
    Amazing breakfast meals, delicious orange juice & the perfect coffee. Everything you'd need! First photo is hotcakes, second photo is the french toast with a side of bacon for reference

  • 5/5 Nitish M. 2 years ago on Google
    Though it was busy because of Mother's day, the staff were very accommodating with sitting arrangements. Food took 30 minutes and could have easily been longer. But such a delay was understood with a day as such. Coffee and Hot chocolate were the right temperature for the weather and were served within minutes. Food cooked fresh and absolutely great. Hash brown was lacking flavour but with chilli scrambled it was perfect. Poached eggs cooked to perfection and Sujak had an amazing taste to it as well. Kudos to the staff for staying calm and cheerful on a hectic busy day. Would I come back here -Yes !

  • 5/5 Madhusha W. 2 years ago on Google
    Great cafe that I found unexpectedly. Staff was absolutely wonderful, very welcoming, friendly and food was amazing. If you're visiting Werribee, make sure to check this place out. You won't regret. I highly recommend Notorious Espresso.

    Great place to have coffee and breaky or brunch. Items on menu might be different than their normal presentation but they taste nice. Coffee is pretty good. Friendly servers.

  • 5/5 Wajahat B. 1 year ago on Google
    I recently had the pleasure of dining at Notorious Espresso on a Saturday morning for brunch, and what an absolute find it was! From the moment we walked in, we were struck by the cozy and inviting ambiance. The décor was chic and trendy, and the atmosphere was lively and energizing. The service was top-notch, with the staff being friendly and attentive throughout our visit. But the real highlight was the food. We decided to try the Turkish Eggs and another dish (I can't recall the name) Pulled Beef, Scrambled Eggs and Potatoes. Both dishes were absolutely delicious. The coffee was also excellent, with a wide variety of options to choose from. Overall, Notorious Espresso exceeded all of our expectations and we will definitely be returning again. If you're in the Werribee area and looking for a great café with excellent food, ambiance, and service, look no further than Notorious Espresso.

  • 5/5 Muhammad J. 1 year ago on Google
    Such an amazing place to have dine in, great environment with amazing staff to help you with your meal, great atmosphere overall to enjoy your food. Lots of options to choose from and eat. Shakshuka may require to have more bread rather just 3 pieces since shakshuka for sure need more bread. Overall great experience bit pricey but worth it. Good serving size which you can enjoy and share your meal with your friends and family.

  • 5/5 Sam 2 years ago on Google
    Went there for brunch and loved it. Tried the smashed avo and coffee, one of the best in town. Great service and nice atmosphere. Can’t wait to try the other items in the menu. Highly recommended.

    Food was so good, simple enough for my kids and the chilli eggs was 10/10. Coffee was really good. Would have been good to have salt & pepper on the table. They forgot one milkshake but made it super quick when we left for take away & it was 10/10 so happy kids. Definitely go back!!
