  These guys have definitely lifted their game and the coffee has stepped up too. Great to see this cafe getting busier and the vibe growing too.

  Had breakfast here one day during the tennis. Coffee was OK, was expecting more given the equipment, the vibe, reviews etc. My piccolo was on the weak side, not sure if the shot was poured too short or the beans were lacking punch.

  Decent coffee and friendly staff. My espresso was a little sour but otherwise full flavored.

  Great vibe here with coffee to match. Food looks delicious, although apart from a brownie haven't tried it.

  My Short Mac was magnificent, a light and aromatic blend that rolled off smoothly. My feeling is that the blend has improved from my last visit before Christmas.

  Has become my preferred pre-work coffee after only finding this place a couple of months ago. The rosso beans are delicious, so much so that I've now stopped taking sugar in my laté. The flavor is on the sweet side naturally for my palate. The guys working are urban cool yet not intimidating or... Read more

  Great coffee. Got there at end of the day so could only get a long black in a take away cup. I usually find this waters down the coffee, but not here. Lovely strong tasty coffee. I definitely go back.

  Coffee was pretty good, one of the better ones I had in Melbourne. However there was a bit of a wait and they weren't very busy.

  The only letdown is a totally disinterested, forgetful and rude waitress. Barista knows his stuff and is more than happy to advice. Maybe takeaway is a good option there..

  We recently stayed in Torak for the tennis and this (thanks to beanhunter!) became my "local" for the week.
  
  Over the week I had at least 5 FW's and sampled what I assume was their house blend and a couple of single origins (Australian & Kenya). I found the coffee to be excellent at... Read more

  In 30 centuries since the Dutch first smuggled the coffee bean from a Yemenite enclave, rarely has a roaster-brewer so effectively mastered the art of extracting the fruit's essence. Full-flavoured. Reverently percolated. Humbly served.
  
  The culmination of a century of coffee culture... Read more

  It's the whole package without any shortcuts. 
  A cafe with quality coffee, made with a smile and personality. Your signature cup is done with perfection and they also do a killer ice coffee when you need the caffeine hit on a hot day. 
  Food is surprisingly fantastic. Healthy options... Read more

  Coffee would have to be top 3 in Melb... Cracking!! Food is spot on and cafe has a cool feel, great place also to have a drink on a Friday arvo... Need to eat more to see just how good the menu is though. Will certainly be heading there every week at least from now on!! Might even get there NOW!!
