The Aussie Grind

I had such a wonderful experience at The Aussie Grind in Plano. The service was truly exceptional from start to finish. My server took the time to ask what I typically enjoy in my coffee and made thoughtful recommendations based on my preferences. She absolutely nailed it. I loved my drink. I ordered the T.A.G Big Brekkie and it was fantastic. The beans had a rich, homemade sauce that really stood out and added so much flavor. Everything on the plate tasted fresh and well prepared. Great service, great coffee, and fresh, flavorful food. I’ll definitely be back.

Absolutely phenomenal meal. The banana bread is hands down the best ive ever had. So good I ate it all before taking a photo. The chai latte was frothed to perfection and the eggs Benedict on sourdough toast was a great way to end the meal. I really liked the holandaise and with it being on sourdough bread, it was larger and more filling. Everything I ate just blew me away. You will love this place.

The Aussie Grind is a solid breakfast choice that stands out for its creative menu, offering much more variety than your typical neighborhood spot. I tried the Breaky Gnocchi, which was a unique and delicious twist on morning fare, and I was impressed by the reasonably fast service. If you're looking for an efficient meal that breaks away from the standard routine, this is a decent spot to visit.

Omg this is a hidden gem in North Dallas area! The vibes are so cool, people are warm and it is a fun place to dine. We went for brunch and honestly did not expect much from this place since we had never fried Australian food. The juices are bang on! Flat white coffee was okayish. The Shrimp Linguine and brekkie were amazing! Highly recommend!!

Food and service was amazing! They sell a little bit of everything here, and stay open a lot later than they used to! I had the homemade granola, i would’ve licked that plate clean it was so good. Good came out super quick and wasn’t too busy when we went. I love eating breakfast for dinner, so I appreciate that they sell breakfast all day! :)

I recently visited this place and I can recommend the healthy breakfast options they have. The kids absolutely loved their food, especially the pancakes with ice cream and cotton candy. We only ordered vegetarian options, but I’m sure there are other tasty options available if you’re not vegetarian.

Coffee is rich and so decadent. Loved the cups and saucers it was served in. The cappuccino was so delicious with a sweet creamy foam on top. Servers were so nice and attentive! Atmosphere could be cozier but overall a nice place to stop for a coffee date.

Photogenic food and plating . So very Instaworthy. Quality and quantity was barely passable. Pricey for the food being served which had surprisingly medi touch , though being a Restaurant representing “Down under” fare. Service was ok

All they really do are small or meat hand pies.I've tried two, lamb rosemary and steak and mushroom. Both were full flavorf and the crust was very flaky. I loved them. You can take them home frozen. My husband loves meat pies so I'm taking him here tonight. I know he will love it to. It's not a fancy food place. Looks fast food. Very casual, service was great. Im physically limited and they were very helpfull.

Tried a new breakfast spot and was not dissapointed. We arrived around 11 on a Sat morning. Small place. We had to wait 15 minutes. No room for waiting inside, so we had to wait in the car. Very interesting breakfast menu with selections you just don't see elsewhere. We asked our server for recommendations and those "different" items were not recommended, so we went with their big breakfast and omelette. The big breakfast had some interesting things like beans in marinara sauce and potato cakes. Different, but good. The omelette came with a side salad which was only a few bites, but very tasty, fresh and went perfectly with the eggs. The omelette was perfect and filled with goodies. I had the Canberra version. Toast and bacon were all good. We both had coffee and hot tea and they were excellent. Very good place with lots of returning patrons. Highly recommend and we will be returning. Very friendly and helpful staff.

Solid place for breakfast / brunch food in Frisco! I visited The Aussie Grind with a few friends for brunch on a Sunday. Upon arriving at around 10am, we put our name down and had to wait maybe 20ish minutes outside before being seated (as a party of 4). Once we were seated, service was relatively fast despite how busy it was inside. I ordered the breakfast pizza which has bacon, fried eggs, cherry tomatoes, arugula, and BBQ sauce. This is basically a flatbread with a great mix of toppings for breakfast time, and I especially loved the sweetness that the BBQ sauce added to the dish! My fiance got the breaky gnocchi which has bacon and poached eggs and comes on top of a bed of spinach. While the texture of the gnocchi was nice, this dish was unfortunately way too oily towards the bottom of the plate plus it wasn't as flavorful as we would have liked.

My go to breakfast stop! Never get tired of coming here for breakfast or lunch. Staff is super friendly and coffee is delicious! Gotta come try it!

Food is SO good, their menu is really customizable, staff is kind and quick to resolve issues, yummy fresh squeezed juices! Melbourne juice with a Bubble n squeak has been my fav!

I didn't get the hype here; it's a very basic not too bad cafe with pricier fid optiobs It's ok I guess

My previous review was a mistake (it was meant for another business) so I decided to make it right by coming here. I have also heard so much good things about this so I also decided to celebrate a friend's birthday. They don't take reservations so better get there early cause weekends are busy. I had the salmon and it was good but the sweet chilly glaze sauce didn't feel like it complement the salmon. Maybe it just wasn't my preference so I'll order something else next time. The side cabbage that came with it was also lackluster. My friend had a beef burger sub sweet potato fries which was good. She ordered a coffee and we shared an affogato which was really good. Really nice staff but I do feel the food was a little underwhelming. I'll probably come back here another time to give it another shot because I'm thinking it's just what I ordered. Thus, a conservative 3 stars for now

Australia in Frisco! The Aussie Grind is my Tuesday brunch ritual -- cozy vibes, craft coffee, and delicious food. My go-to is the lavender oat milk latte, the omelette with blistered tomatoes, and anything with their jam or bagels. A true Frisco favorite for brunch lovers!

This was a fun find. Went for lunch with my friend. It was pretty packed but we were seated immediately in a 2 ppl table. The place is so cozy inside. I do want to go back and try other dishes. My salad was tasty and huge. I got it with the vinaigrette on the side and it was a good call. My friend had the penne pasta and she loved it. Their coffee is good too. And the service was excellent. Definitely going back to try more!

I haven't had grilled halloumi since I left Melbourne and this place reminded me absolutely of any higher end breakfast cafe along an Australian beach. We tried a flat white as well as a honey and banana smoothie along with an avocado toast and rocky road French toast. My avo toast came with grilled sweet corn, pickled red onion slices, arugula and a crème beet sauce. Wow! Everything was beautifully plated. It's busy on a weekend but the service was fast and friendly. I'll definitely try this place again anytime I want to "staycation" and feel like treating myself.

All I can say is wow! This felt like an exclusive brunch spot that is a MUST visit if you're in Frisco. The food is fantastic! The Aussie Grind breakfast reminded me of a similar dish I had in the UK but was on another level with the chutney jam and fresh local bread - YUM! The cappuccino also went above and beyond with a nice chocolate powdered layer on top. It was delicious! The restaurant does feel a bit congested with limited small tables that are very close to your neighbors, and you have to raise your voice quite a bit over the loud music. But, I got over it, because what really made our 1st time experience here great was our server, Grace. She had such a pleasant personality that could make anyone have an amazing start off to their day. Overall, with such good service, diverse menu selection and quality food, I would highly recommend this spot!

I went to Aussie Grind for lunch on 1/14/25. Service was slow, the food was just ok. I ordered breakfast which came with eggs and toast. My waiter asked if I'd like jelly for my toast and I said yes. When I got my ticket, I had been charged $.50 for the tablespoon of jelly. I ate, paid, & left and later looked at my receipt, I had been charged a 1.5% surcharge for paying with a credit card. And then - I discovered they charged tax on the surcharge. I'll never go back

Come with an appetite. The portions are hearty. The staff were very attentive and the food came out quick!

Came in for a Saturday brunch and was able to get seated with no wait. This place is tiny and get loud and packed so just be aware ! I really enjoyed the food and coffee here. I got their 'bowl' chai latte and the smoked salmon Benedict . Everything was delicious. The service was great and they didn't mind that my friend and I stayed past our meal to keep on chatting. Would definitely come back !

I tried the mango honey smoothie and really enjoyed it! It was tasty and refreshing. It was definitely not overly sweet, which I appreciated. The service was fast and friendly, even though the place was pretty packed and busy at 10 am on a Saturday. It had a great vibe, and I could tell by how many people were there that the food must be good. I'm already looking forward to coming back to try their pot pie!

Dropped by because we wanted to get smoothies. The waitress recommend the honey mango smoothie and it was delicious! It wasn't too sweet which I loved and really creamy. It was really busy for brunch and the food looked amazing. We'll be back to try their brunch! They have both inside and outside seatings.

Well, the verdict is in! Aussie Grind deserves all the hype and praise! We ordered the fish and chips, Canberra omelet, and Pav Smash, which were stellar. The fish and chips were delicious! Served with their in-house tartar sauce, which was lip smackingly good, the fish was delicately coated and fried to perfection, keeping it tender and moist. The rosemary potatoes were soft on the inside and crunchy on the outside. The Canberra omelet was excellently balanced and fluffy. When cut through, you see the egg curds, and it is scrumptious. And last but by no means least, the Pav smash was so unique that I must ask everyone to try it at least once. The in-house berry compote and the hand-whipped cream just took it to another level I will for Sure revisiting to try their breakfast pizza and much such deliciousness that awaits us at The Aussie Grind Oh, and the staff were so amiable and excellent! Made the experience even more enjoyable

The Aussie Grind collaborated with the Miracle for the holiday season! The service was prompt, and the waitress walked us through different coffee and food options! The ambiance was fantastic, the place was packed and there was an inflatable kangaroo outside, in theme with the name of the place. This place has been on Yelp's Top 100 list throughout the years, and I can see why. Got the iced Aussie latte and loved it!! Have to come back here to try the Eggs Benny!

(Chris Helmsworth voiceover) The vibe is hidden cafe right on Preston. Perfect for a quick dinner mission. Darvan warmly greeted us Aussie Iced Coffee. Ice cream. Extra shots. Hot Chai. Nuanced. Delectable! The Aussie Parmy was epic! So satisfying. Rosemary a gourmet touch. G'day! Would order everything again! Thanks, Darvan! Woohoo!

Down from 4 stars in prior review due to the server doing the hovering thing at bill time - a sure way to make us not want to come back soon. That, and tax in tip.

I found this place on Yelp. I like their menu and pictures and decided it give a try for late breakfast. I liked the interior and nice friendly service. The food was delicious. I was recommended a banana pudding and it was delicious. I will definitely be back.

I've had this place on my radar for a while now, but finally got the chance to go recently. Solid 5/5! Spectacular food and super attentive service! The vibe is just right, and everyone in our group left feeling totally satisfied. Everything was fresh and delicious, so I'll definitely be coming back. They open early too, which is perfect for early birds.

Breakfast Pizza is far from my usual café breakfast meal. And even stranger is that a restaurant named Aussie Grind would have breakfast pizza on the menu. My wife and I both ordered it. It was crazy good. It is a generous sized flat bread, loaded with apple wood smoked bacon, cheddar, one fried egg and BBQ sauce. A delicious combination of flavors. Add variety to your breakfast meal. Try it. A big iced mocha for me and a hot Flat White for my wife. This is a very comfortable upscale coffee shop. The service is fast and friendly. It is just a few blocks from the Home 2 Suites. It gets busy in there. We caught it just right, but by the time we left it was packed.

This place lives up to the hype. The vibe is bright and chill -- felt like we stepped into a beach café, but in Frisco. We came for brunch and ended up staying longer than we planned. * Smashed avo toast was fresh and had a little kick from the chili oil -- the sourdough was legit. * Pancakes were soft and fluffy without being too sweet. * Coffee? Strong. Smooth. I got a flat white and already craving it again. The staff was friendly and didn't rush us even though it was packed. Definitely a weekend go-to now.

Came for brunch with a couple of friends, and it was lively on the weekend but the wait time was only around 5 minutes. Service and food were alright. I ordered the T.A.G BIG BREAKY (Applewood smoked bacon, cage free eggs, pork & sage sausage link, avocado, roasted field mushrooms, blistered cherry tomatoes, house chutney that tasted like jam, and sourdough toast), which sounded like it would be a lot but I was able to finish everything and I wasn't that hungry. Hot sauces (e.g. Cholula) were available upon request.

We haven't been here for years. But the ambience, foods, service haven't changed! Everything was still fabulous, and the foods were as great as we remembered. Our waiter was very attentive. We ordered a lot of foods and everything was amazing - pasta with shrimp (big shrimps), pancakes, salt and pepper fried shrimps. chicken salad,... Even the photos looked great lol

El mejor cafe definitivamente Voy a este lugar por su cafe Excellent atencion Buena ubicacion Precio

This was a Sunday brunch visit for us, and the place was busy. We're out on waitlist and soon enough, we got a text about our turn. Our delightful server offered us suggestion on food and also bragged a little about their coffee. I ordered cappuccino first and then some food. This cappuccino was very different from what I had experienced sp far and our server did clarify that it's the Aussie way. It came in a beautiful ceramic cup, topped with chocolate dusting. The flavor of coffee combined with chocolate did present a unique experience, so I can't grade it in my usual manner. The 2nd coffee was small latte which I thoroughly enjoyed, I'll possibly order that first next time. Regarding food, avocado toast was tasty with not too heavy on toppings but still impactful on overall flavor.

The Aussie Grind is excellent place to satisfy your taste! They have nice variety of food for you to indulge and experience Aussie feel. As fellow Aussie myself, this feels like home! I love coming to it every time. The service is always on their toes and ready to serve every-time! Perfect for a date, family and hangout with friends whether it's breakfast, lunch or dinner!

The Aussie Grind has partnered with The Miracle for another year of Christmas pop! Enjoy their cute decor, holiday cocktails served in cute mugs, and delicious food. Holiday drinks are served starting at 4PM. Breakfast and lunch menu is served ALL DAY. (4.5/5) Hot Buttered Rum Served hot and made with Jamaican rum, oat milk, spiced butter, and other spices, this one was strong and delicious. Recommend for their holiday cocktail! It comes in a cute Santa mug. (5/5) Long Macchiato An Australian specialty, it combines the intensity of a double espresso shot with the softness of texturized milk. It excelled with its robust espresso flavor, luxuriously creamy milk, and a serving temperature that was nothing short of ideal. (5/5) Prawn Linguini My absolute favorite entree from Aussie Grind! The shrimp is always cooked perfectly and the garlic buttery pasta drizzled with lemon is to die for. (4/5) Angie's Savoury Mince It has so much flavor and I highly recommend if you are a ground beef lover. The beef is simmered with tomato sauce (ketchup), vegetables, spices served over crunchy sourdough bread.

It's very busy and can feel a bit crowded, but the coffee and food is amazing! Staff is very attentive, even when it's busy! The cappuccino comes with chocolate powder and I highly recommend the banana walnut bread with the whipped cream and berries!!

Cute place with cute drinks. I really liked the vibes and the name of the place. The drinks are around $9-$12. Seems like a good brunch spot or afternoon snack. We went closer to night for dessert and got some food as well. The food was good and felt like a good place to come with friends or to study. A different type of coffee place with some unique menu items.

I did not have the breakfast so the coffee is what I based it on. The coffee was ok but the restaurant was packed. The staff were friendly and the looks casual. There were quite a few families in the restaurant. I'd come back to try their breakfast.

My sister and I had a great lunch here! This place does feel Australian, they have nice decors and atmosphere. I got breakfast pizza and banana espresso smoothie. Both were delicious, flavorful and nicely made. I especially loved my pizza. It tasted like homemade and was close to what I would make for myself at home. They have many food options. I'd revisit this place!

Food is ok good, some what smaller portions of food, had a regular coffee, it was just coffee nothing spectacular, got cold quick because they have the cold air blasting, and it's only 1 speed, and they cannot slow it down,atleast that's what they told me. The food is aimed at healthy eating, flavor combinations are strange but work. Their highlight was their banana walnut bread it was great. The wife loved the chai latte she said it was the best she had, it had a strong clove taste to me. Not sure I will be back. The place gets packed, but probably because it's a small place. Not bad food just not what I was expecting..The servers were great and attentive.

It had been a very long time since I last dined here. Unfortunately, a group of bikers decided to have breaky here as well. Fortunately, they were dining outside and the interior had plenty of empty tables. They appeared to be very busy. Initially, the employee who delivered the water mentioned someone else would be my waitress. A few minutes later, she offered to take my beverage and food order. As I had done previously, I ordered a flat white and the Big Breaky with the eggs as shown on the menu (poached). When another waitress served the coffee, I asked for Splenda. When she had accidentally given me Stevia, I requested Splenda again. She decided to explain how the restaurant does not have Splenda but something similar. Rather than explain that she had given me "not Stevia but something similar," I decided to keep quiet. Eventually, my waitress served the breakfast. Although it was a lot of food, I ended up finishing everything on the plate. I left satiated especially after finishing the flat white. Although the food was about the same, the service was not since my initial visit. Today's experience made me miss my favorite cafe in Darlinghurst.

The holiday miracle pop at Aussie Grind was so good! It was the exact festive experience we were looking for. For the tiki drink lovers, the Yippee Ki Yay was a rum Christmas special. The hot buttered rum was definitely warm and cozy. The burger was cooked perfectly and the fish and chips were good as well. The service was A+ and super friendly. We gotta come back to try the other drinks before the Christmas season ends.

Super kind folks and great service Variety of brunch items Flavorful Cute local place It is small so not recommended for big groups

Fresh and delicious! The staff is amazing! Try everything on the menu, you will not be sorry!

The food and drinks were absolutely amazing. Service was quick and on point. Be warned this place is LOUD when busy. You may not be able to hear yourself think. Other than that, nice place.

Staff was friendly, accommodating, and made suggestions (as it was our first time here). We live in Rockwall, Texas and I wish this spot was also in Rockwall so I could come more frequently.

This place is gorgeous on the inside. Bright and happy in the morning. There's always folks already set up to work or having meetings or prayer groups neat 7am when I stop in. I've not tried any of the food items yet but the coffee is STRONG, YALL!! Aussies are not messing around! I've learned my lesson and ask for extra oat or almond milk because I'm a wuss and won't make it through half a cup without feeling like my eyeballs are gunna bounce put of my head. This is a good quality coffee house. I stop here once a week for an iced latte and the owner or person who works early shift is incredibly nice. It does get a little backed up the busier it is but this is all hand pressed and freshly crafted for every patron. Stop in and give them a try. Get ready to be awake AWAKE

New twist on breakfast. Worth a visit if you want something a little different. Arrived early to beat the hrush.

ORDER Iced Matcha - Overall the drink was not super sweet and was pretty milky. There wasn't really strong matcha flavor throughout and pretty mid overall. Breaky Gnocchi - This dish has hand rolled potato gnocchi, a bunch of spinach with other veggies, bacon, and poached eggs. I am not much of a veggies girlie but this was pretty good. It was a well-seasoned dish though a bit on the oilier side. The gnocchi was crispy and golden on the outside then had a doughy consistency inside. They also gave nice portions of bacon which made it taste yummy. The Chicken Sanga - This sandwich was super delicious. It was a sweet bun with panko chicken breast, spicy mayo, and crispy caramelized onions. The onions were absolutely divine. The chicken was crispy and the fries it came with were also super crispy even if they were thicker cuts of potato! Would definitely recommend this lunch dish! Prawn Linguine - Linguine served with prawn, buttered, and tossed with cherry tomatoes. My mom had this dish and she said the flavor was there and good, it was just a bit on the saltier and heavier side. Chicken Penne Pesto - This dish was penne pasta with pesto, spinach, and parmesan. I think the pesto was given in a bit excess because the dish was super salty which took away from my dad's enjoyment of the dish. However, in all honesty, it could be because we are used to less salty foods culturally so this could be a bit exaggerated. VIBES The place was pretty crowded around lunch time. The ceilings are pretty tall which give the restaurant a more open feel. The aesthetic is very wooden, planty, and modern. There are lots of live plants which give the place a fresh feel. Seating is mostly wooden tables, metal chairs, and long wooden booth bench. Clean throughout and nicely decorated. Great for catch-ups and casual brunch. SERVICE Service was nice. We came when it was crowded so had a 20 minute wait when we came around 1:30 PM on a Saturday. When we came in, they had a little sign that said "G-Day" with my name. The food did take a bit longer to come out but other than that it was good. Everyone was nice. Also, just something that we noticed was that the silverware was super shiny without any water marks.

Great service and absolutely INCREDIBLE food! I can eat their mince toast and raspberry jam every day of my life.

I believe Jordan was our server during our recent visit to the Aussie Grind. I wanted my husband to experience the delicious breakfast here and guess what? It was still as delicious as ever. Banana bread? Get both chocolate AND walnut options. Just do it. Avocado toast: Jordan suggested adding some crumbled pancetta on top for a crispy finish. Wow was that a smart decision! It was even more delicious than before. Everything was fantastic! Love it here.

I love brunch and so I'm always looking for a great spot that offers that combination of breakfast and lunch. this spot was a hidden jewel that I discovered with such excitement. The food was delicious. The staff were friendly. Service was prompt and accurate.

I stopped by this restaurant for late breakfast and I'm glad I did! I had a cappuccino and the breakfast pizza. Both were great. My only comment on the pizza is that I wish it came pre sliced. Service was very helpful although it seems a bit chaotic at times, and the restaurant and cafe itself are super cute. They have a nice patio as well!
