Decor - 10/10 Service - 10/10 Food and drink - 10/10 Hits - The coffee tastes delightful. Misses - There are no faults - this cafe is beyond perfection.

Visited the cafe for Sunday morning coffee fix. Cool cafe. Friendly service and good coffee. Happy to recommend. Might review to 5 stars later after trying the food.

I want to say Thank you very much for last night. The staff were absolutely amazing. Welcoming, friendly and accommodating to all our needs. Fantastic and once again Thank you. Cheers Paul

Coffee is good and the staff are welcoming and friendly. Often see 4th-6th graders from the local school popping in for hot chocolate on their way to school and the staff greet and chat with them. Very pleasant atmosphere.

the worker ruby is the best . she makes the place as good as it is.. her beautiful smile makes my week. i go back every morning to grab a skinny latte decaf just so she makes it, shes the GOAT!.

jonty jenkins didnt recommend this place. came to say i agree with him

Friendly staff. Great coffee and food. Indoor and outdoor seating available. Highly recommend.

Good service staff. Egg Benedict with avocado was great! a lot in quantity. The Calmer Sutra Chai Tea was really good.

The most welcoming, laid back, chill, kind staff in Aberfeldie. I have been going here regularly for the past three years and they never disappoint me. Good range of food during the day and during the night. What more could you ask for?

Thank you Elise for lunch today. You made our birthday celebration so special, with awesome tunes. Always enjoy visiting for great coffee and food x

We had a great night out with our rugby club. Good food and reasonable drinks. The staff were awesome too

This is a wonderful little jewel of Buckley Street... well just off Buckley St in Fawkner St :) , great coffees and the service is great they are all so friendly :)

Great little bar with lots of atmosphere Great service and drinks Good spot for a catch up We held our book club there and didn't talk books we were having too much fun Highly recommend

Friendly service (they know our taste and orders by heart), great coffee (strong without extra charge, smooth and fair trade), great spot at night time for desperate parents like us who need a drink or 10 to relieve the daily stress; a hidden spot in Aberfeldie; feels like going back home to Brazil, where the bar owners have a good chat between serving good food and drinks. Highly recommended! Ps: Arancini balls and Espresso Martini are a must try!

Many years ago my family was hit by hard times, and I was forced to sell our family cow. On the way to the market I was intercepted by a gypsy, who offered me three magic beans for my cow.The gypsy told me the beans would lift me and my family out of our rough patch, and into good times. But tragedy struck!! On the way home I dropped and lost the beans on fawkner street. I was devastated. My family had nothing, my children were hungry. Eventually though the gypsy's prediction did come true - from the beans sprang Calmer. Many good times have been had at this trough of glorious brews. The mullet hairs on the back of my neck stand up whenever I think about it - even now my goosebumps' goosebumps have goosebumps. Good people good vibes good music 10/10.

Great place to go for a coffee through to a big breakfast. Great friendly staff.

Friendly faces, great coffee, great food. What more can you ask for 🤗

payed extra for almond milk in my chai latte, waited 10 mins to be told they don’t do chai. I asked for a coffee instead which they tried to charge me again for. I asked for almond milk in it again. Upon being handed my coffee I asked if there was almond milk to make sure they were not completely incompetent when they told me I never asked for it even though I payed extra.

Call anyone of dark skin color the n word and drive them away.. Wouldn't recommend incredibly rude waitresses and staff and hateful beyond anything i have never been so insulted in my life wow!

I went to Calmer for the first time for a Saturday morning coffee with brunch. Enjoyed the relaxed vibe and good coffee. Friendly service too, will be back.

Fabulous place, I have met several super super attractive ladies having a coffee here and they were great (wink)...The grub aint too bad either.

Awesome little spot run by a bunch of amazing people who really go out of their way to assist and ensure everyone has an enjoyable experience. Coffee is amazing and their snacks are out of this world... try their chips, I dare you.

Wonderful aromas of not burnt coffee beans. Ignore all the year 12 student reviews because its a great cafe. Jonty Jenkins is not real! 5 stars

Highly recommend! Excellent coffee and friendly service. It feels relaxed and authentic and the food is great too. I love this place. Great both day and evening.

Had a nice breakfast at this lovely place, amazing coffee and well mannered and respectful staff. Will definitely be coming back again soon.

Staff are so friendly and welcoming even throughout the busy periods. Food is cheap and taste good. Love the atmosphere this place has. I can't wait to visit this place again when I'm in the area 🍽😛

Best coffee I have had in a long time, fantastic food, will be back next week for breakfast again... very friendly staff made the experience very pleasant

Great food, great service and super friendly staff. The menu has something for everyone - even my fussy daughter was impressed. Will definitely be making it a regular.

Now that it has achieved a degree of fame by being synonymous with the fictional VCE exam cafe in today's English exam...I hope they get super busy! Good luck, calmer cafe...you deserve your hard won points and I hope that you get lots of custom from this incident!

Chilled venue with an awesome vibe. Great for a catch up with friends worth the area staff always accomodating and friendly. They provide a list of menus from nearby venues to order food.

Really great place to go for coffee/breakfast or a few wines on the weekend! The coffee is great and staff are so lovely and always make you feel at home.

This is an oasis in the area. Staff are super friendly and accommodating. Good vibes and cosy atmosphere make this a gem in the area. Choose between Chinese, Thai and a number of other local restaurants who will deliver to you. Just ask a staff member for a plate and cutlery and feast away. Or order a pizza from Raffaels which is 10 meters away. This is a fantastic concept and i can't wait to get back and get pickled, keeping tidy of course. Tara the manageress is friendly and knows how to treat customers. I hope they start opening on Sundays with the nicer weather coming. Thumbs up all round.

Love coming here the coffee is great and the staff are so happy they make you leave smiling 😀 Also a great place to have a glass of wine on the weekends

Good local bar that is underrated in my opinion. After their facelift they've really changed lanes and I'm liking it! Great coffee and breaky during the day and a nice relaxing bar after dark.

All wrong shut it down ! who the hell would go there Crap ! ...................................,,............................................

Amazing coffee, super friendly staff. Love it!

Calmer Nights is certainly a welcome (and long overdue) addition to the Fawkner St dining precinct and well worth a look. CNWB is also kid friendly with an outdoor area and comes highly recommended. Currently cash only but I'm assured that cards will be accepted in the foreseeable future.<br/><br/><br/>----16-7-15----<br/><br/>Calmer nights is well 'n' truly maturing as a wine bar which was always going to happen. They now have a broad range of exceptional wines on offer. All that remains is for them to install a 'pay wave' facility to move them into the 21st century, which I'm led to believe is on the way.

Well this is clearly the greatest cafe EVER

Always a friendly vibe. Always great coffee. Wish they would extend their trashing hours!

This place is very relaxing. Great coffee and egg and bacon rolls. Jelly slices are nice too. Also some great foccacias. Very welcoming and friendly staff. Also newspapers to read and music channel usually is on the TV.

Firstly.. As we entered the cafe we weren't greeted. Great start to my morning. <br/>We asked to sit and look at menus, but the lady rudely pointed at the board saying "that is the menu" and proceeded to ignore us.<br/><br/>The scenery was not very welcoming.. So we left. <br/><br/>Hopefully the food was good?

Best. Cafe ever. i miss the hot chocolate.
