Espresso Room 410 High Street, Northcote, Victoria 3070

"Best value for money, sit down cafe in the area. Try other places but keep coming back here. Can't fault anything I've tried on the menu. Unpretentious atmosphere that suits all type of customers. Great to visit on a summer day with their flexible, open & breezy indoor & outdoor layout. One star off for some uncomfy chairs - please get cushioned seating with the next reno!"

"Atmosphere is warm but service is disgusting. I ordered the coffees for 3 people at the table. After fews minutes there was my 2 friends come into and they placed their order of drinks+food and paid at the counter. But when I would like to make payment, staff gave me the bill which included the order of my 2 friends. So that I said this bill was wrong, my bill was only for 3 people. But staff still not accepted and ask me to call my friend for confirming already paid ( they left firstly). That was very bad to do that while caused missing of the bill by you I left without any apology from staffs and manager"

"We arrived just before 12pm and ordered. Only two of us. 40 minutes later, no food. I asked after it politely and was told there had been an issue with the reciept machine but it would be another 5 minutes only. 15 minutes later I asked again. Was told to wait another few minutes. We left. Pretty annoyed, don't waste your time here."

"Easily accommodated for our group of 5. It was busy but the staff had no issue providing us with excellent table service. The food was phenomenal, we ordered; 3070 bagel, breakfast burrito, blueberry pancakes, diced avocado and bruschetta, and the san pedro. Everything tasted amazing."

"Beautiful staff, attentive and very friendly. Cutlery was dirty, had to be wiped. Chicken burger was delicious and the chips were very good, nice and crispy. The “keep it clean” dish was large and cooked well. Eggs and bacon were done perfectly. Halloumi was delicious, but the toast was way too hard and difficult to cut and steamed greens were too tough to eat. The ricotta hot cakes were delicious, one big hot cake. Big serving and loved the presentation! Iced coffee was pretty average, not amazing but not bad. I enjoyed it. Almond latte was perfect. I’d come back if I was in the area but I would probably just stick to the coffee."
