Great lunch place and the staff here are super friendly. The ingredients are fresh and they're all delicious and healthy. I love the beetroot risotto and also the soups and salads here.
The best community-run cafe got a makeover. A sweet new kitchen, breakfast menu and ample sitting space. It's divine. And you still get to choose which project you want your money to go to
MeNa KunMarch 16, 2016Just a stone throw away from where I lived! Food is good. Coffee is good too! Staffs are friendly! What more could I ask for!
Minh PhanDecember 26, 2015Loved the pasta here. Friendly staffs and nice atmosphere. I'll definitely come back here again #kinfolk #cafe #melbourne #pasta
Vic McGinOctober 5, 2018My favourite cafe in Melbourne. Run by people with hearts of gold, donating all profits to worthy causes, while serving up excellent coffee and food.
A great social venture. Staffed by volunteers, and revenue goes back to social projects.
Jenkin A.March 12, 2016How more hipster can you get with a cold brew coffee served in a glass bottle, in a cafe run by volunteers who donate the proceeds to charity?
Carleton CoffrinApril 23, 2014Overall this place is a diamond in the rough for lunch. Food prices are a bit high, but they make up for it in quality ingredients and fast service.
Olaya NavarroNovember 12, 2014Súper breakfast and nice and cool placer. Perfect service. I will come back
Greg StewartAugust 8, 2012Me: "Could i please have a poached egg on toast?". Them: "Our egg dish today is the pork rillette or the poached egg on toast with avocado". Me: "can't I just have an egg without avocado?" Them: "No."
Gayle MMay 29, 2013Served by a delightful young lady on her first shift and ordered the lunch special. Cauliflower soup delicious and I'm sure the rest will be too!
Come here for great coffee where all profits go to a social cause. Also most staff here are volunteering their time.
Kym HardingSeptember 3, 2018Eggs for brunch, with roasted pumpkin and mushrooms was perfectly cooked, delicious- Jeni GrubbOctober 4, 2019Love their philosophy. The staff are great and the food really good. Good soy chai.
Kari NicholasMarch 1, 2022I dropped by for a coffee on the first of March 2022 at 1pm and it was very closed. No signs indicating reopening.
Stephanie LMJanuary 31, 2014welcoming door after one month renovation.. coffee is great but $10 for a tiny toastie is a little much =\ only acceptable because the profits are for good cause
Meaningful goal behind this cosy cafe. Love the team, love the voluntees, love the heart work.
Joseph CasertaOctober 17, 2010Great Coffee @ a Great Price! Very refreshing to see in Melbourne! Added bonus you can donate your coffee money to one of 4 different causes!
Derek WilsonJune 27, 2012Great vibe, friendly staff, good food an coffee. All the profit$ go to good causes too.
Storme Whitby-GrubbMay 6, 2013Around the corner from vibe. Gluten free options. Coconut quinoa porridge... score!
Russ KeysMay 6, 2011Great Review in Melbourne Newspaper TheAge
Michael LautersteinJune 7, 2011Shout out at the top of your lungs 'I love Andrew bolt' or 'climate change isn't real' and see how deathly silent the room becomes.
- Lovely staff (always smiling). Be sure to check out their season menu.
They messed up my coffee order. But nothing is unforgivable when you're surrounded by friendly staff and lovely free thinking people who convince a better world's almost possible
Super friendly service, menu is fresh and a little different. Good coffee too.
- This is a place to be at the yarra end of cbd. Meaningful
- Don't expect lunch after 2.30pm or coffee after 3pm. They close really early.
