No.19 On Union Road Melbourne

4.5 Visited the beautiful cafe before the lockdown and had heard many positive reviews about it. We loved the ambience and the whole white walls and interiors, definitely gave it a minimalist vibe. We decided to try the prawn roll and breakfast burger. For drinks we took the Bananarama and Cleanse smoothie. The prawn roll was super light and had fresh flavours. There was a generous serving of prawn tossed in a marie rose sauce. The brioche bun was soft yet crunchy at the same time. A squeeze of lemon before biting into the roll enhanced the roll and gave it that taste of having fresh seafood. The brekkie burger was decent with the standard filing of egg, cheese, spinach and bacon. This would be great for those who like to stick to the staples. Both smoothies were really good! The bananarama was not overly sweet and we liked the addition of yoghurt in the drink. The green smoothie was good with kale, cucumber, apple and celery juice. Definitely a good cafe to try out in you are in the area!

My favourite cafe everrrrrrrrrr. The mushrooms on toast is one thing I’ve ordered multiple times and can never get over it. Love it.

We were very happy campers at @no.19society! Beautiful food that offered a range of non-conventional brunch options. I really loved the airy space of the café too, the big windows provide a lot of natural light which complemented the timber nicely.<br/ <br/ SMOOTHIES

4.5<br/ <br/ With the change of season, cafes often revamp their menu and No.19 is no different. After missing out on some of the old dishes, I was determined not to miss out on trying the Strawberry Fields here. A beautifully executed dish comprising of elderflower strawberries, prosecco jelly, white chocolate cremaux, toasted meringue and caramelised pastry, each mouthful presents different textural elements and flavour combination. The flavours balanced out one another beautifully, and the flaky caramelised pastry is incredibly addictive to munch on by itself.<br/ <br/ Another dish that showcased amazing flavours is the Adobo Bowl. The brown rice add a healthy touch, contrasting nicely with the sinful pork belly and the sweet and smoky adobo glaze. The cucumbers added a nice crunch to the dish, and the tomatoes brought with it light and bright flavours. <br/ <br/ The Prawn Roll wowed me as well. Covered in marie rose sauce, the prawns were tangy and flavoursome, and you definitely will be licking your fingers after. The soft brioche roll did a great job holding together the abundance of prawns stuffed within. <br/ <br/ Smoothies are always a good choice here at No.19. The smooth and creamy Nutberry and Snickers smoothies never disappoint and are super filling to the point of being a meal in itself. The iced latte was a great brew and easy to drink too.<br/ <br/ Can’t wait to see what the coming seasons will bring to the menu at No.19.

Absolutely love the food, vibe and service here! We love how the quality is always consistent, delicious and wholesome. The highlight of our meal was the prawn burger! They can generally be a hit or miss but this was AMAZING, the king prawn patty was fresh and flavourful. Paired with the soft brioche bun makes for an amazing burger. Highly recommend you visit this cafe if you haven't so!
