Sensational Sunday brunch! We had the cilbir and manti, Turkish coffees and a cheeky slice of baklava. Thoroughly recommend.
The fact that this cafe is constantly busy is a great sign of good things to come. A large open space with an urban, grungey feel and a friendly vibe. The staff here make a great coffee, and it's done quickly. There is a lot of chatter in the background, but it's not so noisy that you can't hear your conversation.
The food menu is diverse, and meals are fresh and tasty. A good selection of cakes, pastries and homemade muffins are on display, and these always manage to tempt me. Overall, Glass Merchants has that cool but welcoming feel that makes you want to make this place your local coffee haunt.
EPIC INTERIOR
INDUSTRIAL VIBES
LOTS OF SEATING
FULL OF CHARACTER - and a menu to match it!!

They say the way to a man's heart is through his stomach. And the Macho Breakfast at Glass Merchants in Balaclava is no exception. I was thrilled when it was placed in front of me and I almost fell of my chair after the first bite. Eggs and a steak with a beautiful chutney sauce, 9.5/10. Coffee 3.5/5. #foodporn
