Definitely one of the highlights of our visit ti Ballarat was this delicious breakfast surrounded by CDs and vinyl records. Vibe here is unmatched, and super friendly service makes it even better. Whether you're into cosy indoor corners or sunny outdoor seating, this cafe has it all. Highly recommend.
No wonder this place is packed on Sun morning, the food is great, great seasoning, great service, inside is a little bit tight space but all will manage. They dont have kid or smaller menu/ version but the toasty could do. Everything is great!
October 6th of 2025- it was a crisp morning in Ballart, we scrolled down the streets and hopped into this vintage cafe of CD’s or recored shop converted to a cafe 🍀.

A hot breakfast and coffee were the order of the day. And the overall environment / vibe is really good - with quirky memorabilia all around. Makes for a great …
I was impressed beyond expectations. It started with one of the most interesting lattes I have had in a very long time. The coffee was everything you expect: creamy and comfortable, but a really subtle nutty bite. The food is as good as the welcome. The ambiance of a jazz bar with records and CD available is a cherry on …
Stopped for a quick cuppa and a sweet treat. Friendly greeting with a beautiful smile. Had a pot of tea (and finally, yay, loose leaf tea), latte, and the best ever carrot cake. Had to use the “powder room” for which you walked through the actual kitchen. Very efficient kitchen and extremely clean. Watched numerous meals and snacks being served …
