This place is the sweetest. We go here several times a week. Coffee is on point and they have my FAVOURITE smashed Avo in Melbourne. Better than other crappy wanky place in Essendon
The matcha pancakes are insanely good!! I loved it so much, I just want to eat it all over again. They are quite filling and clearly the presentation is great. I also got the yellow smoothie which has banana, mango, coconut and there may have been something else but I can’t remember what. It was a nice smoothie, I think it could have been a little bit thicker but it was tasty. The staff are friendly and for a Sunday morning, it was it didn’t take long for my smoothie/food to come out. I was really impressed with pancakes and can’t wait to go back.
Small yet friendly cafe near essendon train station and windy hill football club. Limited menu options make the choice easy, but the limited choices doesn’t mean there is limited flavour. Soft sell crab burger and the matcha pancakes were surprisingly tasty and the berry smoothie was nice, albeit a little small.
As a side note the Council in this area needs to stop giving permits for places like this out if they do not want to provide suitable parking options. I literally drove around for 20 minutes only to park in the closest stop available 1.5km away.
Charming local spot! Perfect coffee.. smashed avo is one of, if not the best that I’ve ever had! Food can run a little slow due to being a small kitchen so grab a cosy spot and soak up the sun by the window and watch the real humans of napier st walk by.
Many cafs claim to serve specialty coffee, yet churn out mediocre, flavorless and disappointing beverages. Not the case here. Sean is a stickler for perfection and consistency and it’s evidenced in every cup of coffee I’ve ever had from CiC. They use Candyman by Small Batch (of Auction Rooms fame) and it sings on the palate – notes of toffee, cocoa with a pleasant acidity. Their food is also amazing, quality ingredients beautifully presented. Sean also makes the best filter going around. I love supporting cafes owned and run by young people, and CiC is definitely one of note!
Great service, great coffee, smoothies and breakfasts and a really relaxed atmosphere, Coffee in Common is my go-to cafe in the Essendon area. The staff are super friendly and their food and coffee is always beautifully presented. The menu changes regularly, the only downside being that my favourite dish (a vegetarian breakfast burger that was to die for) got the boot on the current one. But the great vibes of this place make up for it!
Love these guys
Best food, best staff, best location, best location.
Love the vibe in the cafe and the decor.
Awesome food as well as great coffee
Always a good idea
