Farm Street Larder

This cafe is 11/10, my partner and I love it so much we go here at least once a week for their early bird breakfast special. It is so delish every time and the coffee is always 10/10. The staff are so friendly and welcoming and make the cafe a great vibe. Today I had a high tea with 7 other friends and out of all the high teas I’ve been too this one was THE BEST! They had big portion sizes for everyone and so much food we couldn’t Finnish our meal. I always have a great experience at this cafe and will definitely recommend to everyone.

Quick bunch, food was good looked very appealing… coffee was very good. Just a small meh was the eggs, my egg had a lot of water come out of it when I broke it open and the bacon and eggs “eggs” were very well done when asked for runny yolks.

Farm Street Larder can be a bit hit or miss. When they first opened, the Favourite Husband and I were suitably impressed. Friendly staff, good value for money, interesting menu options that delivered on taste. Somewhere in the middle it seemed to nosedive. Change of chef maybe, no idea. But disappointing. There’s nothing worse than praising a place to friends and taking them there, only to end up horrified that they’d think my standards were that low. Fortunately, the last couple of times have been a hit. Having given it a wide berth for 6 months, we have returned. Like a hard boiled egg does when you burp after eating. And the last three visits things are good again. Admittedly I’ve played it safe with eggs Benny and mushrooms and the Favourite Husband hasn’t veered away from the usual big breakkie. He’d prefer a decent butcher’s sausage, rather than the pre-frozen deep fried nugget of nothingness, but he’ll eat it because I rarely feed him. There was insufficient hollandaise sauce for me. I like my eggs to be swimming in it, but that’s my personal preference. More keto friendly options would be the cherry on the cake. Great coffee incidentally. Now if we could just shush the kids in the adjacent playground from crying, all would be rosy.

Lovely breakfast, the sourdough was great! Good coffee too. Dex rates it a 10/10, because of the side of Halloumi, only $3 and grilled well!!

Great menu, lots of choice with good healthful ingredients. I had the halloumi vegetarian bowl (can’t remember the name of the dish) it was delicious, with kale, beans, hummus, a fried egg with a gooey yolk. Coffee was strong and chocolatey, tasty. Nice place to set up and work, especially when the sun shines through the big windows. Also they do a special in the mornings eggs on toast with free coffee
