Great little gem hidden away. Took a while to find it but the food and coffee is amazing. Staff were very friendly and efficient. The menu is well put together and I love brunch so lots of options. The coffee here was really good. Please give it a go!

Super cute hidden cafe. I love the vibe inside. It’s super casual. I only had coffee but that coffee was fantastic and the staff were great too. Only issue I found was that the stools are really uncomfortable (see picture). Flat wooden seat with no contour or cushion. I couldn’t sit there for long.

The rosti here was insane! YUM! Everything came out beautifully with healthy sized portions. Was family friendly for us on Fathers Day. The coffee is lovely as well. Love the layout and the service. Don’t mind the funny alley that you walked down to access Carli. It kind of makes it feel even more special.

What a hidden gem! Hiding away down a little alley way & then opens into spacious glory. The staff were brilliant & the food was amazing. Gluten free friendly options. High chairs available. Diverse menu with both savoury & sweet options, and then tops it off with scrummy pastry options at the register. Recommend & we will be back!

It's pretty pricy there and the coffees were pretty average. The skim latte was average but the soy mocha was a bit disappointed. It didn't taste like any mocha to me. The latte was served in a glass. The soy mocha was served in a standard size tea cup. Latte was $5 and the mocha was $7.20 - pretty expensive to serve in a tea cup. There are not much customer service to be honest. We didn't feel welcomed. The staff is just an Uni students to do their jobs. Customer service training is needed. The French Toast was pretty between low to average. The place is hidden right next to the petrol station. Inside of the cafe has a high ceiling and bright. It's actually quite nice. Weekend surcharges 12% and public holiday 20%. I think this place is better to stay hidden and definitely not a hidden gem.

Great coffee, great food, great service! I had the tofu scramble, which was one of the best tofu scrambles I’ve had in a long time. I also had the batch brew coffee which went down smoothly. There is plenty of space to have a meeting or set up here with a laptop. A hidden gem in Carlton.

Overall The food is delicious. the service is pretty good. The price is medium high, but the vibe is so nice. I had hangover burger. The portion is not too big (can be bigger HAHAH). The grilled halloumi is super nice the taste is My god. The staff are v friendly. I do recommend ppl to come here have a cuppa.

Food and coffee so expensive here, 7.21$ for ice long black on Sunday. Overall it great cafe, really beautiful and relaxing place, good coffee as well, good service. Recommended if you don’t mind pay a bit more than other cafe for quality coffee.
