“ Great coffee, nice view and great food. They made some mistakes with our orders, but quickly to have it resolved. I was quite happy with their customers services. They locate inside a building so you need a code to use the bathroom, which I found a bit inconvenient but it doesn’t really affect the overall experience. ”
“ We went to another popular cafe in Brighton last week and cost us almost $100 for two meals and coffees and the food was nothing special, we come here and the price was less then half and had a lot more effort put into the meals and tasted fantastic. Highly recommend if your in the area! ”
“ Amazingly friendly service and simply the best coffee in the area. We tried both breakfast and lunch... every dish was done perfectly. The rhubarb & ricotta spiced hotcakes, breakfast bowl, and Japanese Okonomoyaki served with JFC (aka Japanese Fried Chicken) were all top notch in our books. Combine that with a smile from everyone at the cafe and a fresh looking space..it's a winner! ”
“ The lovely girl who served me was patient, helpful and friendly. Amazing customer service!! Chicken baguette was absolutely divine. Chicken was so tender and juicy. The bun was fluffy and soft!! So good I will definitely order this one again. White chocolate muffin I had was unfortunately burnt at the bottom. It was also only topped with white choc and raspberries. The rest of the muffin was quite bland and had only found 1 raspberry. Couldn’t really eat much as it just tasted burnt. Nice little cafe hidden on the corner. I will definitely be back to try the rest of the menu as it looks and sounds amazing! ”
“ Tried the Strawberry Iced Matcha Latte at The Tamper Trap Café and it was amazing! The mix of fresh strawberry and smooth matcha was super refreshing. Not too sweet, just right. It looked beautiful and tasted even better. A perfect drink for a warm day – I’ll definitely be ordering it again! ”
“ Friendliest staff and amazing food in Brighton ! Very chill atmosphere and beautiful coffee art. If you're even in the area, you must try out this hidden gem. We were worried as there were a few bad reviews but was definitely blown away by the food and service; the baked eggs really hit the spot. The owner was really nice and cheery and the staff provided us with excellent service. Would definitely recommend and will definitely be back! Keep up the good work! ”
“ Great local Brighton cafe. Excellent coffee and one of only three places that I buy my more than once a day from; .. as a resident. Very friendly and efficient staff and owner. ”
“ This is a nice little spot. Parking is easy and it's a quieter part of Brighton, so a more relaxed feeling. The food was good. As is the case with many of Melbourne's cafes, the menu could be identical to 100 other places, and I found there was nothing that sets these guys apart from others, but if you're in the area, it's nice to give it a go. The burger was great and cooked well. The fries were nice too. Everyone loved what they ordered. The only minor issues was the length of time it took to get the drinks, and one of the staff members did play with a dog outside at their outdoor tables and then came in but she didn't wash her hands before getting on with the next task. Seeing as it's in a nice area and the prices are reasonable and service is good, I would come back again one day for sure. ”
