Wonderful little place. Actually went to Brunswick East Project for lunch and didn't realise they don't do food, so a quick walk around the corner and this place was a great find! Mexican influence for the food and it's a very balanced cafe, not excelling at anything, but I couldn't fault it too much either!

Just like WOR, this place is lovely. Cute fit out. Not as 'cool' as WOR, but still a great cafe.
My cappuccino was good. Bit much chocolate, but not over the top. The coffee wasn't spectacular, but it still made for a good drink.
Over all, this is a nice cafe that is clearly well patronised. It has seating inside and out and on this lovely spring day people were certainly making use of it.
I frequent A Minor Place almost every Saturday or Sunday. There is always a great ambience about the place, located in a residential street it's quiet and away from cars and trams. The staff are normally very friendly and very attentive, always trying to get you a bigger table or a table outside if that is what you fancy. I have never had a bad coffee. It's always strong and very smooth. Try the Brazilian breakfast or the chicken sandwich. Both are deeelish!

Was asked multiple times about my order which took about an hour to come, then was charged for each non-order. Coffee was overdone and a waste of a beautiful machine. Food is still great though but don't expect to be in and out in a hurry. Best visited by locals who can't/won't go more than a block from their house.
