Just had the worst chicken focaccia of my life…which is hard to do, because most cafe focaccias usually present all the filling spilling out of the sandwhich only to be half empty when you open it up…At $14 you would want to put up something quite decent. Hardly any chicken in it and Just had the worst chicken focaccia of my life…which is hard to do, because most cafe focaccias usually present all the filling spilling out of the sandwhich only to be half empty when you open it up…At $14 you would want to put up something quite decent. Hardly any chicken in it and what resembled chicken, was more like a blended mush with mayonnaise. With avacodo and tomato the only accompaniments, this was a massive let down…A waste of my money and time. accompaniments, this was a massive let down. Maybe if it came with chips or a salad or something…A waste of my money and time. I feel ripped off.
The coffee here is incredible!
Sometimes you have to wait a bit longer than you would like for it, but when it comes its worth it.
Get down and see for yourself
Best smashed avo and feta in Melbourne! Really generous portion sizes and reasonably priced meals. Great coffee and really good hot chocolates. Perfect for a cozy brunch or afternoon meal.
Good coffee, but abrupt staff members are a letdown. Not what you want while enjoying a relaxed Sunday afternoon. Hopefully it was just an off day.
An oasis of coffee perfection in Brighton
The smell of freshly ground beans enticed me in to try a coffee at Balmains. The sight of multiple grinders and a Synesso machine bode well and the passion of the new owners was matched by the perfectly made coffee. They know their stuff here. It’s a simple recipe, friendly efficient staff and coffee to die for. I haven’t sampled any breakfast items yet but the range of pastry item and croissants have kept me coming back. Can’t recommend highly enough.
