5 Wonderful Cafe! So glad we came here for brekkie. Seemed like a popular place and rightfully so. We got a coffee, eggs Benedict and mashed avo. The lady that served us on the register was exceptional (she was wearing a black beanie, short brown hair). I didn't want mushrooms with my avo toast and she offered to substitute it for hashbrowns, I was positively surprised. All our meals were delicious as well as my partners coffee. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit and would definitely come back when we return to Mount buller next year.
5 23/3/24 Once again it was a fantastic visit! Marley nailed my coffee order, which rarely happens. Lovely friendly staff and a great vibe. Lovely cafe to sit in the open window and watch the main street. Great staff and food.
4 Nice little town cafe. BLT was pretty good, the coffee was fine too. Nice tables and chairs out front to watch the world go by. The chances of getting COVID here seem mighty slim. They’re right on top of the protocols s d protections here.
5 An excellent variety of sweet and savoury options. The serving sizes are generous and our food was fresh snd delicious. The staff were really friendly and helpful.
5 Thank you so much for rearranging your tables for us to cater for our large party that arrived without a booking. The service was great and very welcoming. The food was good, and the coffee was nice. The place was very busy during breakfast service but it didn't take too long for us to get out food. Very happy with the experience, thank you
5 Probably the best dine-in experience I had in Mansfield during my stay. After ordering a pumpkin soup one of the staff came out of the kitchen and very politely asked if we would like sour creme mixed in with it, my wife doesn't like sour creme so the man that made the effort to leave to kitchen to come out and ask is in itself worth 5 stars. We've never had service like that before. Service aside the food was great. Pumpkin soup was a big hit and I are my nachos like a hungry dog. Pricing was very reasonable for what we got. Would return to try other items should we be in the area.

It was exactly what I needed—golden, crispy, and satisfying. The calamari rings were coated in a crunchy batter that gave way to soft and tender squid inside. Super satisfying to bite into! The chips were fluffy inside, just the right amount of salty, and paired perfectly with the creamy tartare sauce on the side. The small salad with a dash of dressing added a nice refreshing contrast. The portion was generous too—enough to fill me up without being overwhelming. The whole experience had a very relaxed feel, typical of a cozy Aussie café. Would definitely come back again when I’m craving a crunchy, comforting plate like this. ⴵ ???????????????? ????????????????: Reasonably fast, under 10 minutes ???? ????????????????????: Light lunch crowd, easy to get a table ???????????? ????????????????????????????: Tuesday lunch ???? ????????????????????: Calamari & Chips ???????????????????? ???? ????????????????????????? ⭒ Yes!
