Visited Scarecrow while shopping in town. Cute little cafe with unique items to choose from. I chose the pain Perdu which is French Toast. It had such a warm and comforting flavour, the fruit was poached and really juicy. I really wish there was more bread because it was so delicious. Also really enjoyed the hot chocolate, had a deep flavour and wasnt overly sweet.
Such a beautiful cafe to do work or catch up with friends. The staff were super friendly and attentive.Soy matcha 6/10, ($6)The soy matcha was a bit powdery, parts were not mixed in and you can see that with the lumps on the side. I’m not a huge sugary drinks person but I still had to add sugar to it as it didn’t have may sweetness.

We came here for brunch and ordered a few dishes between us. Scarecrow has always been my go to for their latts, bread and desserts but I usually get these takeaway. However, dining here is a different experience and Scarecrow has a lovely rustic charm that makes you feel at home away from home.We ordered a few main dishes between us: shakshuka (which has a vegan option too), turkish pide chicken sandwich and poached eggs on rye. The shakshuka was moreish and came with toasted pide on the side, however, the portion is small for the price. The chicken sandwich was more hefty, with enough filling to satiate but doesn’t differentiate itself from toasted pide chicken sandwiches in other upmarket cafs with the exception of scarecrow’s bread being housemade. Finally, the poached eggs on rye. The toasted rye was fresh but the crispiness made it difficult to cut through with a fork and knife. Theeggs were lovely.We also added some desserts to our palette by ordering a NY cheescake and a hazelnut ball. The cheescake is to die for, absolutely delicious. This is coming from someone who normally doesn’t care for sweets but this cake is the exception. The blueberry compote tops it perfectly too. Hazelnut ball tastes like Ferrero Rocher which is always a good thing.
Came in for a birthday lunch with my friends. Ordered some cabinet food and the soup with bread. Almond croissant was super soft. The top layer was crispy and the middle was delicious. It had some sort of sweet spread inside. The smoked salmon in the Turkish pide tasted amazing with the avocado. The soup was creamy and tasted really nice with the bread soaked in.
Scarecrow is a funny name for a cafe, but they have put up a couple up on top to align with the name. Just opposite Albert Park, on top of Victoria Street, Scarecrow is a perfect location for a cafe. The place encompasses a high-end organic grocery and florist as well. The coffee – especially the iced latte – is awesome! I had the shakshuka which sadly comes with one over-cooked egg – do not recommend!Instead I think the actual eggs and omelettes might be a better bet. The pain perdu looked better than it tasted. WHY put something as sour as rhubarb into something thats meant to be sweet?? Might be more fun if stuffed with bananas. Im certainly going to come back for the coffee, and to try their poached eggs – which they procure from a local farm and I heard one diner claim was EXCELLENT!
