Cafe Weekend

The place has a really cozy atmosphere and felt warm and welcoming. Our server was so, so nice! I accidentally got pasta sauce on my clothes & he rushed to help me. 😭 The pasta dishes were superb - the pasta was cooked perfectly and the sauce was really flavorful. The pancakes were super fluffy and light and the croffle was crispy and decadent! The taro latte was also amazing. It had a strong taro flavor and was absolutely delightful. We really enjoyed dining here & will definitely come back!

We hosted a bridal shower at their place, and it was a fantastic experience from start to finish. The staff was attentive, professional, and made sure everything ran smoothly. The food was absolutely delicious—beautifully presented and full of flavor. The ambiance was perfect for our celebration, and our guests were truly impressed. Highly recommend for any special event!

Kind of cramped but super cute! The food was amazing, I got this croissant sandwich and the croissant was delicious. Also got a eisner matcha with was so tasty, defiently recommend getting it with plant milk. My friend got it with whole milk and the matcha flavor was not as strong

Came to Cafe Weekend for brunch. *Tip* Get there early because this is a small cozy spot. Our server was very nice. The Pink Lemonade was very tasty! I ordered "Drop The Eggs" which comes with scrambled eggs, bacon, American cheese, sweet & spicy sauce on a brioche bun with a side of home fries. The sandwich was delicious; the sweet & spicy sauce brings it to another level! The home fries were overcooked so I swapped it out for a side of fries (not pictured) and the fries were so good! I will be back!

Best part of my trip to Boston! We went 2 of the three days we were there and I miss it. The food was great and the matcha was even better! The only downside was how busy it was since the store is small and there’s little to no space during the weekends. But the waiters were great, they tried to make sure to get to every table and were so kind!

Wow! This place is worth the hype 100 percent. The pancakes were thick and perfectly cooked. The steak omelette was tender and the home fries were crisp but not too dry. I really enjoyed my meal and it was the perfect way to start the weekend! The coffee was also pretty good although I liked the matcha better. The eggs Benedict was to die for though, it really shined above the rest. Safe to say it’s called weekend cafe for a reason, u got to visit!

The pancakes are great (we got the banana Nutella pancakes) - they were fluffy and toppings were good. Arrived hot so the warmed nutella was great! Would get this or a different flavor again. If I only got this, 4.5 stars - understand the good reviews. Unfortunately my blueberry cream cheese croffle was burnt on the bottom. The burnt and bitter flavor overpowered the blueberry and cream cheese. It was kind of sad since I was really looking forward to it. They used the unburnt side as the top so the initial presentation looked perfect but the burnt bottom was hidden underneath. It was also room temp and a bit difficult to cut through so it didn’t feel like it was freshly made compared to the pancakes. Maybe their drinks and breakfast foods are better but the quality control is not great for croffles if burnt ones are being sent out. Mistakes happen but hopefully they can add in some more quality control to make sure others don’t have this experience.

Knocked this one off my must try list and quickly became a favorite. A cafe I even wanna visit on a weekday, everything was so fresh and good. The taro and butter cream latte!!!!

Both the einspanners were good but the matcha was especially good. Also came during happy hour for a breakfast plate! I would say it's very worth plenty of seating and free WiFi, although I so would not recommend as a place to work because it's busy and the kitchen is very close. The restroom is downstairs in the basement I believe the owner himself took our orders. Nice guy!

I'm so happy we came early and got a table without a problem! This is a great place to come with friends for a cozy Sunday brunch. The decor and table setting was very trendy and the lively chatter and music in the cafe made for a nice ambiance. The waiters sat us at a hightop table and gave us plenty of time to look over the menu. They came back to take our orders when we let them know we were ready but at times it was hard to grab their attention as the cafe got busier. When the food came out, some of it was at room temperature and not as hot as I expected it to be. Nonetheless, everything tasted good! One important note to call out is that the bathroom here is not ADA compliant. This was no issue for me but be aware you need to go down a flight of stairs to get to the single occupancy bathroom.

Shakshuka 4/5 Toowoomba Panini 4/5 ~First Impressions~ This place is always crowded during brunch time. People are lined out the door and the space inside is pretty cramped. We were only able to get bar seating, all the way in the corner at the time. But the atmosphere is electric and bustling. It was a fun place to be in! ~The Food~ The Shakshuka and Toowoomba Panini were both super savory dishes. The flavors were great, but super heavy. I wish we ordered something else that could cut through the depth of these dishes. The pairing was really good though, being able to dip the panini in the shakshuka for a little extra burst of flavor. I've been here before at night as well. They are definitely much more quiet and plenty of space when coming in for some desserts. Their cakes and waffles aren't too bad with a hot cup of coffee (yes I came at night for those oops). ~The Logistics~ There is plenty of street parking and also a parking lot right across the street. However, depending on the time of day, it gets pretty busy and really hard to find parking. I don't think they take reservations, so it's probably best to get there early if you want a seat for brunch. Otherwise, it can end up being about an hour wait.

This brunch nook in Allston is so cute! Came here on a weekday with a friend for some light eats and we got the Nutella Banana Pancakes, Blueberry Cream Cheese Croffle (not pictured), Drip Coffee, and Matcha Latte. Overall, the quality of the food was good, but could be improved. I loved the density of the pancakes, but felt like the Nutella was a bit overpowering at times. The croffle was soooo good, but similarly felt like the cream cheese was a bit overpowering at times. Would definitely come back to try other items on the menu!

Rating: Came to try their fluffy pancake. Its a small brunch focused shop near Allston area. Parking is difficult to find but doable with little walk. The place only has few searing but was not too crowded with background of K-pop music. . We were sat down quickly and placed an order. We ordered chocolate crof and nutella and banana pancake. Croffle was exactly its name where it's a hybrid of waffle and croissant with chocolate drizzle on it. Simple but sweet and tasty. Fluffy pancake with banana and Nutella was good. Definitely fluffy and sweet. Overall the place was solid. Service was good and food was good. My partner liked it a-lot but personally i thought it was okay. I prefer other desert options around the area.

The concept of this cafe is a late breakfast theme~ serving breakfast/brunch until 5pm. I ordered a chocolate waffle to share and pancakes! The pancakes were so fluffy and delicious. The chocolate crofal (croissant +waffle) was honestly the best. In every bite, you could taste the layers of the pastry and the chocolate syrup really enchanted the texture. There was plenty of searing and empty spots when we came around 4pm. Tables were clean, and the waiter was present and welcoming. The food did take a while to arrive, but I could tell they were working on my fluffy pancakes! They played kpop on the background and made me feel like I was in a kdrama. Delicious food and good breakfast meals/dessert's!

Food: Food was delicious. The eggs and sausage were cooked perfectly , pancakes were thick and fluffy, French toast was light and fluffy, and the smoked salmon sandwich was enjoyed. Service: Service was very good, the owner and waitresses/waiters were all super kind and positive. Ambiance: The restaurant is small but very cute. There were fun/artsy posters around the cafe. Negatives: The only point of improvement is that they need a bathroom available from the main dining area. Right now, customers have to walk through the kitchen and to the basement to use the restroom which causes concern for food hygiene.

Cafe Weekend is the a great breakfast/brunch option in Allston! And it's a spot that won't break the bank either. It was busy at 10a on a Sunday, but I was able to be seated quickly at the bar (I was by myself). You do check in with a tablet at the door, which I liked and the process was straightforward. The pink lemonade I believe has some kind of syrup, but it wasn't overly sweet (which I feared with the syrupiness at the bottom). It had a great balance of sweet and tart. I did get my drink quickly. I ordered the drop the eggs sandwich and it was everything I could want in a breakfast sandwich from a diner like atmosphere - slightly greasy and not skimpy on the eggs or bacon. The home fries are more like potato wedges. The guest next to me ordered the toowoomba panini and it smelt really good that I'll have to try it next time. I would definitely recommend Cafe Weekend. Not only would I come back for brunch but I would also be curious about their dinner menu.

My go-to place in Allston after a meal for coffee!!! Their weekend latte stands out the most and I have got it so many times. It is on the sweeter side and reminds me of the once trendy Dalgona coffee. I recently also tried their cream latte and definitely on the creamier side just like the name - I like how the espresso taste stands out too. Baristas are always very friendly! It is a tiny but cute place and there is a lot of seating for a small space; there is also bar seating as well. They also serve brunch and dinner. I have tried their brunch once and I remember their shakshuka really standing out (I can't find the picture sadly). I recommend this place for either a quick coffee and pastry or a meal! It can get really packed on weekends and you might have to wait for brunch. -9/10

Love this place. Small and cozy diner and the staff are amazing. They always give you a warm welcome when arriving and the entire staff gives you goodbye when you leave. Most remember your name too! Food is always amazing. Asian/comfort/dinner food I guess I'd call it? So good though. Big portions at a great price. The pancakes are amazing and thick and fluffy, but my favorite is the: Shakshuka- delicious homemade meatballs in savory slightly spicy tomato sauce. The shakshuka is better here than almost any other place I've had it, and at a far better price poont . 5/5! It also comes with some sour dough to soak up sauce or just pile food onto. Come for the food and stay for warm and friendly service 5/5

Delicious food Hearty hospitality Calm ambiance Reasonable price Nice location Perfect coffee

Brunching in Boston has been more meh than my annual performance review and cafe weekend is no exception. There's always an inherent excitement when you hear Korean American fusion food because who doesn't have a lil too much Koreanboo in them nowadays? Their must order dish is probly the Toowoomba Panini ($17). They took the hit dish from Outback and made it better as they always do by adding stuff like soy sauce and Gochugaru (duh). Taste just like a saltier and less heavy version of Alfredo sauce to me. There're a few shrimps and mushroom slices in the sauce. Maybe they realize this sauce is salty af so they throw in some under proofed ciabatta bread and overly seasoned arugula. The portion is decent so it does also get heavy and greasy at the end (or after 3 bites). The fig prosciutto panini ($14) sounds like a good idea, who doesn't like a sweet savory sandwich? It tastes just like how you'd imagine it. Idk how but the fig is more overpowering than the prosciutto so it's on the sweeter side. The matcha basque cheesecake ($8.5)is also pretty meh, kinda dry and bland with a hint matcha flavor. The taro latte and the weekend latte ($5.45) are both decent, refreshing and not super sweet. Service was kinda slow but pleasant. With the slow service and limited seating space there's always a wait.

I've walked by this place multiple times and never once was curious what they served here until I saw a reel on IG and got influenced. This unassuming cafe is full of surprises. I was taken aback by how flavorful, amazing, and addictive their pastas are! The atmosphere is casual but service is very friendly. This place can get very hot during the summer as their AC is lacking. But they make it up with their drool worthy pastas. This is a must visit for their pastas! You won't regret it.

Nice cozy place! Be warned that if you come here on the weekends (and want breakfast/brunch) make sure to come early as this place fills up fast. We sat at the counter which was nice to see the owner and cooks making the magic happen! Items we ordered (as of 3/2024): - Strawberry Pancakes - $13 - Huge in size. Texture was fluffy and the strawberries added a nice natural sweetness. Only wish the pancakes had some more sweetness to them as they were a bit one note. I'd likely try another pancake in the future. - Shakshuka - $15.50 - On the note of huge in size, this dish is enormous and can definitely be shared. There is a nice spice to this dish and really hit the spot on the cold and rainy day we had it. While not spicy at first this spice will really ramp up as you eat this! Be warned if you're not a spice person. This went great with the pancakes! - Smoked Salmon Sandwich - $14.50 - This was my favorite. The croissant was perfectly flaky and paired well with the smoked salmon. Quantity was also great. Overall we enjoyed our meal and look forward to coming back and trying their other menu offerings in the future!

Toowoomba Panini 5/5 Blueberry Cream Cheese Croffle 4.2/5 Shakshuka 4.2/5 Prosciutto, fig, and arugula panini 4/5 Matcha Croffle 3/5 Love this place for brunch! Only downside is that it is a little bit on the pricier side for what you get, but it's at a convenient location in Allston. It's a small place with maybe seating for ~25 people and can get chilly inside because of how small the place is and there being no double door. If you're looking for dish recommendations, the Toowoomba panini is quite good. The crunch of the bread with the sauce they have on the side is a match made in heaven! Their blueberry cream cheese croffle and shakshuka are also quite good. I've never had any issues with service. Our orders have always come out in a timely manner. Regarding parking, there's 2 hour parking in a small lot across the street or metered street parking available.

Super cute, unpretentious little cafe with great natural light. Big plus: the food and coffee was delicious too. 10 out of 10 would visit again! We tried their Boston steak panini. The filings were mushy paired with the crunchy panini was out of the world. Service was good.

Breakfast all day? Who could not love it? Cafe weekend breakfast options throughout the day and night but don't sleep on their full menu. I had been here once a long time ago and remembered how nice the owner was and I had a similar experience this time around. The space is pretty small but they've done a great job with the seating. There is nice ambient lighting that makes you feel like you are inside of a lava lamp during the evening when the sun comes down. They have a lot of delicious drinks and so I went for the einspanner despite never really having coffee. It was really good and the cream on top was yum central. The shrimp burger which I worried about getting because I have not had great experiences with seafood sandwiches was delectable. Hella messy from the sauce but I ate every flavorful bite. My friend got the boston cheese steak which I tried and considered stealing from her because it was slapped. They were even nice enough to let us try the funnel fries dessert complimentary which i fought to finish as everything was so filling. It's really chill on the weekdays but if you go on the weekend keep in mind they do get very packed. What we got Einspanner Taro Latte Blueberry pancakes Boston Cheese Steak Supreme Shrimp burger with fries Funnel Fries with nutella & ice cream

Had a wonderful brunch with my mom at Cafe Weekend today! We came a little after 12 on a Tuesday and there was no wait with plenty of tables available. The servers were above and beyond friendly and accommodating. We felt so welcomed and attended to. Service 10/10. They have a really nice menu with a ton of options. Coffee was great. The drop the eggs sandwich was also very good. The brioche bun was perfect. So fluffy. Eggs and bacon cooked nicely. Had an interesting almost sweet sauce on it which I liked but there was a little too much. I subbed a side salad instead of the home fries which was really good. It had a nice dressing and parmesan cheese on top. The sweet menu items also looked delicious like the French toast and pancakes although we didn't get any of those this time. Will have to come back! Cute spot with great ambiance!

Cute, small, and busy. The staff are nice & there's a partial "open kitchen". You'll definitely leave smelling like the grill. Fair warning the food takes a while to get to you. The matcha drink I got was good. But I feel that I may have ordered the wrong dish, because it didn't match the hype of this place. Would definitely try something new if I returned.

I've been wanting to check out this restaurant ever since it opened and I'm happy I finally did! We went around 11:30AM on a Saturday and it was packed! There's a waitlist when you get there and they let you know when you can go in. I will say, it's really small inside the restaurants and they do their best to fit everyone. My friend and I sat at the bar seats by the window and it definitely felt cramped. My back was almost against the table behind me. For food, I was craving something hearty so I got their shakshuka and my friend got their Weekend sandwich. He also got the Weekend latte and we shared an Original Croffle. The shakshuka was actually delicious. It had a perfect spicy kick to it and you could tell how fresh the ingredients were. The meatballs were also ginormous and filled you up. Two pieces of toast is not enough for the amount of shakshuka though! The Weekend Sandwich comes with Lettuce, Tomato, Avocado, Pickled Carrots, Ham, Mustard, American Cheese, Brioche, Home Fries. My friend and I both agreed it tasted okay but it was way too expensive for what you get. It tasted like any other sandwich you might make at home. I would be fine if it was under $10 but it was ~$15. The latte was refreshing and on the sweeter side. It's basically Dalgona coffee (if you remember the trend during Covid!). The croffle is one of their specialties and it was good! The texture was great but the sugar on the outside was a bit too burnt for my taste. It was also pretty sweet so I'm glad we didn't get any toppings but they offer a ton like chocolate, blueberry cream cheese, Nutella, and more. I'll for sure be going here again! Their sweet breakfast dishes looked scrumptious and I want to try. They also offer a dinner menu that I would be down to try.

Cafe Weekend is located on 120 Harvard Ave in Allston, Brighton. My family visited on Tuesday morning to avoid the weekend rush, still, the restaurant was packed the morning of the visit with only one or two available table for four remaining. I'll start with the amazing coffee. I ordered the Einspanner and highly recommend this. The cream was amazing! My husband had the buttercream latte which was good but mine was definitely better. For breakfast items, we ordered the Shakshuka for my son, the egg Benedict with smoked salmon for myself, and chocolate chip pancakes for my daughter. Although I have had better Shakshuka at Tatte, the Shakshuka at Cafe Weekend was good in its own way. It was plentiful. You get three huge meatballs, lots of cheese and sauce, with added peppers, and two toasts for dipping. The egg Benedict was good. Although not soufflé pancakes, the chocolate chip pancakes were addictive. The service was amazing, very quick, friendly, and attentive. I'll definitely be back to try other items on the menu.

This looked better in the pictures. Seriously speaking, we went on our trip to Boston, and then found that this was relatively nearby Boston University. As a result, lots of college kids. That should've been our first clue. The place is modern. They do Yelp as a means to keep track of their waitlist. Score there. They were pretty savvy with this and the ambiance is quite clean. As for the food, everything looked gorgeous, but admittedly we have had better. That and they clearly don't follow directions. I forgot what it was that they brought me, but I had to correct them that I ordered the avocado toast. Regarding said avocado toast, tasty, but it was not the best I have had. Maybe I ought to have opted for the cruffle or pancakes, but my companion had the pancakes and I had a bite, and well, they were just okay. I think the reason this place is popular is the proximity to the university and that they have many specials. Just look at the tables and you'll see what I mean.

My breakfast sandwich was ridiculously good. The brioche bun was so light and airy, the eggs were perfectly fluffy, and the sweet/spicy sauce tied it all together. I also got a taro latte - a little too sweet and made with powdered taro, but I am eager to try their other drinks

Very busy on the weekends for brunch! We got the drop the egg sandwich and the chocolate chip pancakes. Also got a free weekend latte with posting a review! Overall pretty good. Best thing about this place was the service! Everyone was super nice and efficient. Regarding food: - Drop the egg: it tasted a little like a Chinese BBQ pork bun mixed with a breakfast sandwich! Pretty unique. Egg was very fluffy and soft. Worth trying and potentially if I'm craving an Asian style breakfast sandwich I'd come back for this - chocolate chip pancakes: I think they're going for the Japanese style fluffy pancakes here but they're not super jiggly and are more just crispy on outside and thicker. Not bad. Not as buttery taste as I usually like. Would probably skip this next time. - weekend latte: a lot of milk. Would like more coffee flavor. Overall not bad, glad I tried!

Very cute atmosphere. Feels like a brunch spot. QUICK service and fantastic drink options. I tried the matcha einspaner, the coffee einspaner (not very sweet) and the buttercream latte, the savory bomb on the bagel, the smoked salmon croissant and the french toasts (on two separate occasions with my boyfriend though we could probably finish it all in one go). All so delicious. I hope to make my way through the whole menu.

More a 3.5, for now. Worth trying again. Mostly student patrons, given its location in Boston. Also mostly ethnic, as this is in an area I would call the suburban Chinatown, far from the more central Boston Chinatown near the Combat Zone. Extremely busy, packed and full in a small space of tiny tables and pullout chair but cozy. Would not work for social distancing. Can pick up everyone's convo. Several stools also by the window and by their small grill, tho much of the cooking probably goes on in the hidden kitchen. They have an IPAD like device where you enter in number of guests and your cell number and you will receive a text when your table is ready. Food good. Japanese style souffle pancakes neatly prepared with a nice caramelized brown surface. Shakshuka not so much, a motley mix of probably canned tomatoes, frozen meatballs, jarred pickled jalapeno, and an overcooked egg, spice a little lacking; Cafe Landwer much better and probably more authentic. Ok, if you don;t mind the cramped space and general busyness.

Such a cute little cafe in Allston!! The crowds are wild on the weekends and we waited for nearly an hour for a table (and service is quite slow which doesn't help) but if you live nearby I'd def recommend so you have someplace else to wait. They serve an Asian-inspired Western cuisine with fun dishes such as croffles and fancy french toasts and sauces sandwiches. I got a shrimp sandwich, a latte and a croffle and absolutely loved everything. The croffle was flakey and not too dense, maintaining a solid croissant integrity but having the nice crisp exterior of a waffle; the sandwich had a nice creamy sauce with shrimp layered on a thin sandwich bread; the latte was sweet and absolutely hit the spot.

Came back again for their new dinner menu and it does not disappoint! I got the shrimp sandwich with fries and love it! The bun was toasted and the sandwich had a thousand island-like sauce. I would come back again to try the pasta.

I got the monte cristo French toast, which was the perfect blend of sweet and savory. The bread was so fluffy, and I also liked the fresh berries on the side! I also got the buttercream latte, which was amazing and tasted just like a cupcake. Side note: there are no restrooms

Let me just preface by saying, I am not a breakfast/brunch person at all. I normally skip breakfast and just eat lunch. I also typically would never bring up going to breakfast spots when deciding what to eat, but Cafe Weekend is the only place that can convince me to eat breakfast; ITS SO GOOD! My favorite dish that I have to get every time is the Shakshuka. It is seasoned perfectly and I definitely recommend getting the shaksuka if you want something saucy, has a slight kick, and filling! The runny eggs gets me every time. I do wish that they offered more slices of toast to dip for it though. The soufflé pancakes are a great choice and, by the way, much better than regular pancakes. I usually get the strawberry pancakes or chocolate chip. The french toast is EVERYTHING! The very berry mascarpone is not too sweet and has a nice fluff to it. I have yet to have a bad meal here or anything off the menu that was not good. I do think that the coffee could be better but aside from that, everything else offered on the menu is amazing!

Casual brunch eatery in Allston. Limited ~8 tables, so can fill quickly. Shakshuka $15.50 comes in a large pan of pasta sauce meatball, eggs, sausage that goes well with two slices of toast bread. Pretty filling warm meal nice for a cold rainy day. The buttercream latte $5.50 would be better with stronger creamy sweetness.

Nice aesthetic that doesn't quite deliver. Tried out their brunch, and it was good we arrived early because it's a relatively small spot that fills up quick! Everything about the store was very cute, and had very #instagrammable food, with trendy dishes and thought put into the presentation. However, the food itself left a fair amount to be desired on flavor, and the actual experience in the restaurant is a bit off putting--it's crowded, with the grilltop spilling out of the kitchen and up next to some tables, which compounds the effect of the lack of AC on a hot day. If you're going to give this spot a shot, choose a cold day and get your camera ready.

Came here for Sunday brunch and it was packed! Parking can be a bit tricky but we got lucky and snagged a spot right outside. The wait was around 30 minutes at 12:45 pm, and we were seated at the bar. Service was kind and I did appreciate that they let me know my sandwich already came with home fries since they saw I ordered a side of regular fries so that I didn't end up with fry overload! I got the weekend sandwich and my friend got the shakshuka. The sandwich was pretty good, although the bread was a little bit soggy, and the home fries were yummy. The shakshuka was delicious, and we also got a s'mores croffle to share which was a sweet way to end the meal.

Small but cozy busy bustling café with warm and duly polite, honest servers and amazing strawberry soufflé pancakes. Try the Taro latte like we did. As my older brother's 70's generation says Cafe Weekend is "top"!!

Just stumbled upon this place and was very pleasantly surprised. Excellent service and the Western Omelet was delicious. Good coffee and I love that the hash browns had some crunch to them.

This little place had one of the best breakfasts we have had! The croffles are to die for- we had both the Nutella and blueberry one. The Benedict with smoked salmon was absolutely delicious- such creamy hollandaise sauce. Plus my friends had the weekend latte and just raved. Yea!

Cafe Weekend is an awesome brunch spot in Allston. We were served by the adorable owner, which makes me want to support this place even more. We lucked out when we arrived at 11am and only had to wait 12 mins for a table for four. By the time we left, the line was out the door. Service was efficient and friendly throughout our meal. The Weekend Latte was the fan favorite, but portion size and taste of our dishes was perfect. Next time we will try the waffles and pancakes, which are beautifully presented (as they were carried by our table). My only recommendation for the restaurant would be to turn up the A/C as it was toasty in there and to perhaps add a delicious salad to the brunch menu.

Great food and cute decor. Was pretty packed when I went on a Sunday at noon time but service was still fast.

I was looking for a spot to have brunch with my cousin and I couldn't resist when I saw the fluffy Japanese-style pancakes. My first impression of Cafe Weekend was, "Wow, the interior is so nice! I wish we had more cafes like this around here." It isn't very large, but the smaller size offered a more intimate, cozy feel. The service was also quick considering how busy it was on the Saturday morning I came. I ordered the nutella banana pancakes and I thought they were delicious, I loved the fluffy texture, and the portion size was good, but I probably wouldn't come here all the time for $13 pancakes. I also enjoyed the matcha einspanner and appreciated that it was the perfect sweetness. I was not a huge fan of the croffle, however. It tasted slightly burnt -- probably from the caramel -- and I didn't really like the texture. I also wished there was more cookie on top.

Its a solid 4.5/5 in our book! This place is hella cute tho and the staff was very friendly! The croffle was delicioso. (Get the nutella hazelnut one!) And the taro drink = nutz. Savory food we tried there was also tasty as well. Our only issue was with the home fries (too salty and a lil overcooked)

I love this cute little brunch place. They have the fluffy Japanese style pancakes which is what brought me here in the first place. But the menu has me coming back. I need to try the shakshuka, the prosciutto panini, and more. The avocado toast is heaped thick with avocado and topped with an egg of your style. I opted for an extra egg and felt it was worth it because the toast was so big! My friends gleaning review of the French toast included the sentiment that some places over cinnamon their French toast and this seemed to have none at all, which she liked. Also we loved our Weekend Cafe Lattes (iced) as they tasted like coffee ice cream. Say hello to the cutest arm waving cat statue with sunnies and a big beefy arm from all that waving.

Cafe Weekend was a vibe! The place is super cozy and more casual than I thought. The prices for the food and drinks were super affordable and they were tasty. My fav drink was the Taro Latte. The food was unreal. I absolutely loved the Croffle. It was the best thing I've tasted.

Really enjoyed the weekend latte, it sort of reminds me of Vietnamese coffee. The taro latte is also a winner here and I definitely recommend that. The croffle is good, it has an almost mochi like texture but I do think it's pricey for the size. The staff here is very nice and service is quick. Overall, a very nice, cozy little cafe.

We came here for brunch with our babies. Cafe Weekend is a small cafe so we weren't sure if they would be able to accommodate our strollers. We were seated with high chairs and given a place to stash our strollers which was much appreciated. We were waited on right away. After we placed our orders, food came maybe 15 minutes later which was perfect timing. The food was delicious! I ordered the 3 eggs any stlyle. I chose omelette style which my request was accommodated to my delight. We also ordered blueberry pancakes for the table. Did I mention the food was delicious? The blueberry pancakes were made Japanese style- fluffy, poofy, and has a lovely buttery crisp to them. The blueberry reduction on top of the cakes was a lovely surprise. But, my favorite part of lunch was when staff accommodated our bathroom request and led us through their kitchen to the downstairs bathroom. What incredible service- thank you so much Cafe Weekend!

I've come here a lot since it opened and have gotten enough things to feel like I can write a fair review. My go-to is usually the Drop the Eggs sandwich. It soo decadent but so good and is good for sharing if you order another thing. Home fries are generally crispy but sometimes they could be more consistent. Fig Prosciutto Panini is alright, but I kinda wish there was actual fig or more fig jam. I'm not a fan of their arugula salad because the cheese it comes with is extra stinky lol. Kinda wish there were other options for vegetables as sides. The Toowoomba Panini is probably the most decadent thing I've had from here and is guaranteed to destroy your stomach if you're lactose intolerant. It's quite messy but it's a good option if you like shrimp and mushrooms and bread and dairy. Eggs Benedict is p standard. Good. I get it when idk what else to order. Strawberry milk is yummy. It's not too sweet and they use real strawberries. The downside is they don't substitute it with non-dairy milk. Sometimes I get it to go and add matcha at home to make it a strawberry matcha latte. Berry French toast is filling. Not too sweet but still sweet. Comes with three slices of toast and some berries. Definitely a sharing size. Croque Madame is one of my faves (probably second to the Drop the Eggs). I got it with an extra egg. It didn't feel too heavy. Croffles are good. Not too sweet. Wish the edges were a little crispier but I'd get them again. Caprese Panini wasn't my fave. I think it came with a little more balsamic than I'd prefer which made the bread kinda soggy, but the bites that didn't have too much balsamic were good. A friend of mine got their Shakshuka which she said is good. Huge portion so it's good for sharing. Write a Google review for them and they'll give you a free coffee. The interior is modern and cute for pics. I like the vibes here more at night tbh. If you go when it's warm out you are p much guaranteed to encounter flies that are kinda annoying lol. No bathroom so go before coming here. Staff are always friendly and welcoming and food usually doesn't take too long to come out.

Pretty good brunch with some more unique options than a normal American brunch! The matcha einspanner was good but I don't think the matcha was the highest quality. The French toast was super yummy!! Service was fast and everyone was really nice

A friendly brunch spot with good food and latte. There was a wait so come during off peak hour to avoid this. The place is small with open kitchen concept. It's crowded and loud so if you're looking for a quiet place, this isn't it. We tried the shakshuka and pancakes. Both were delish!

Great food awesome costumer service! Must try latte and pancakes, great menu with lots of options

Great food, service was excellent, atmosphere is buzzing and though it happens to be really (and I mean REALLY) small you can sit rather quick and I found parking directly outside for a neighborhood that's typically hard to park in. The pancakes look amazing, light and fluffy although I like mine with a nice crispy edge these looked and I heard tasted great. I had a simple bagel with bacon spinach and cheese but the flavor was so good. The omelet looked pretty good. Overall I have no complaints at all. Great hidden gem, go try it for yourself
