    No comments from 2014 yet! Here's a tip; try the banana smoothie. Try the coffee. Try the granola. Try the French toast. Try the potato hash cake. Try it all! It's ALL delicious! Sit out the back! 👍

    first time here, have always seen a lineup or the place is busy, we arrived just as the y opened and not a problem getting a table, the food was really fresh and delicious, could not fault anything.

    Ask for a table out the back, worth waiting for. Otherwise you're on the street or inside which is v noisy. Breakfast is delicious, tried greens with poached egg, bacon and eggs, and feta hash cakes.

    You get what you pay for. V nice breaky and quick (my experience anyway). Can't go too far wrong with Merlo beans too. Thank you all for leaving tips as foursquare was the reason we chose to dine here

    Very, very popular establishment at the Fiveways, West End. Be warned if you want to go for breakfast at the weekend. There's usually a line-up. Good food, friendly service. Coffee also excellent.

    The food is phenomenal. Pretty much everything on the menu is great. We came all the way from Sydney to try & left without disappointment 😊

    Don't be shy. Order a bowl of coffee and while you're at it the French toast is amazing

    You can't book for breakfast on the weekend, but it is most definitely worth the wait. Make sure you get a potato cake on the side!

    Good food but don't try to change anything, limited vegetarian selection, charge you to scramble your eggs, nice court yard and delicious bloody Mary's

    Incredibly noisy inside, great atmosphere but wait for a courtyard table or the street if you want more peace. :)

    Freshly squeezed juice servings are very generous. Get one! Poached eggs on sautéed greens was delish!

    The eggs benedict with double smoked bacon - to die for! Can't wait to visit again.

    The sweet potato hash is unbelievable... Not hard to see why it was voted Australia's best cafe in 2010 (Delicious mag). Book ahead online to save disappointment!

    Chai latte with extra vanilla shot was delish compared to the cafe across the road!

    Be prepared for no flexibility. No you can't swap the bacon for avocado we are busy. Yet they run out and substitute. Still a good cafe.

    Best coffee and brekkie. Fresh ingredients and top flavours. Check the courtyard for plenty of space.

    Brunch with queue, thought might be worth the wait. Doesn't really seems like to me. Food was just OK, somehow overpriced for the portion they gave. Get the food next door!!

    Coffee was not hot, my breakfast order never came; had to leave as I couldn't wait more. It was their fault, I would expect the coffee to be complimentary after the confusion, it wasn't. Not good.

    If here for breakfast make sure to try the sautéed greens with poached eggs - you can thank me later.

    First bite of the hash cakes were good but the serving was way too big and too bland with only a dollop of sour cream. Not in a hurry to come back.

    All the hype on breakfast but it was very average. At the back outside looked very nice. Not rushing back anytime soon. Au Cirque is always a winner!

    Book the table with its own pergola right at the back of the courtyard if you want to chill a bit...

    Avoid. Very disappointing experience. Service slow, french toast Luke warm, eggs over cooked and coffee way too milky. Won't be back
