Now & Then - Kew

I went there for a catch-up coffee with friends, and even though it is on the main road, one could block out the traffic when sitting outside. I opted for a blueberry muffin which was very fresh and delicious, accompanied by a cappuccino. The service was initially slow but picked up, and overall it was a pleasant experience.

We frequent this Kew cafe and have always had awesome food. There waffles are to die, there poached eggs are just the right consistency and their coffee is beautiful. Hamptons ambience is gorgeous and their function room in the rear is the absolute best for larger groups. Only thing I would say there is they tend to forget u up there after the meal is served but understand on a busy Sunday lunch service.

Nice cafe with great food, but it shows how one bad waitress can spoil your lunch, my meal sat on the pass for 5 mins, I just mentioned to the waitress the meal has been up for a while instead of just apologising she was so rude it made the entire table uncomfortable. Waitress is definitely not your calling. It was only one waitress the service and food are usually great, if you frequent this restaurant I’m sure you’ll know the waitress as it wouldn’t be a one off

I would highly recommend avoiding the new Toorak location for this cafe unless you like hard boiled eggs instead of poached, and toast that tastes like all crust. Oh, and I almost forgot to mention this place is incredibly overpriced for the amateur talent they have in the kitchen. An everyday chef like myself could replicate the dish with a blindfold on. Coffee is good, my almond milk coffee was fine. The cafe itself is presented beautifully, staff are friendly and knowledgeable. However, our feedback fell on deaf ears. The bill was the same despite the poor quality no way in hell will I return to risk another overcooked meal.

I absolutely adore this charming cafe in Melbourne that reminds me of the Hamptons in New York! Despite some negative reviews, my experience dining here yesterday was fantastic. The fish tacos and detox juice I ordered were absolutely delicious, and the service was friendly. The ambiance was wonderful, and everyone else dining there seemed to be enjoying their meals as well. The cafe had a bright and airy atmosphere, and I particularly loved the small details like the stylish checked napkins the food was served on - it was just so reminiscent of the Hamptons!
