A fantastic cafe that is located really close to us.
Great food and service is hard to find and the Cornerstone Cafe has both. Also I love the decor as it definitely gives the place a lot of charm about it.
We will definitely be regulars here, after just moving into the area.
Thank you for a great meal and experience.
The Cornerstone Cafe's the place you wish you had just around the corner and the fantastic thing for us for the last four months, it HAS been! Reliably great coffee with a relaxed and friendly ambience and wonderful food, mostly created in the kitchen at really good-value prices, it's not surprising that it's very popular with a wide cross-section of Ballarat locals and visitors. We're heading back home to Tassie but we enthusiastically refer friends and family to here as a great catch-up spot on the edge-of-town but still having a very accessible, good-vibe location. Come to think of it, maybe it's a touch of naturally wholesome Tasmania in Victoria...Mmmm...we've had the best of both worlds! Keep up the great job, Wes and the team!
A little gem tucked away a short distance from the CBD. We popped in for an afternoon tea on our way from Ballarat to Geelong. The building and decor is old and quaint. I wish I had a place like this near us in outer suburban Melbourne. I had a long black coffee and the Boss a hot chocolate. Matched with a pair of Macarons (one passionfruit and the other caramel) and a Florentine it made for a lovely break.
Lovely. Nice coffee, lovely light meal options and very friendly staff. The old building has been lovingly restored and has a nice atmosphere.
Friendly staff, charming corner cafe and great coffee.
Was pleasantly surprised with the menu & quality of the food. The staff were friendly & accommodating. I found the surrounds very appealing with a good view & it was quiet. I will definitely come back
Such a beautiful place, staff were so friendly and helpful. Food was amazing I’m from Melbourne and will definitely be back.
Pea and Ham soup was amazing, served with really nice bread too.
Chicken burger was one of the best I have tried.
The chicken was crumbed with a home recipe of herbs and spices. With again a homemade slaw, and chippotle sauce that added a nice chilli kick (but not to hot for those who don't like a lot of chilli)
Our burgers came with a generous side of what appeared to be home think cut and lightly battered chips. These were nicely seasoned. The coffee was ok.
Thanks team for the excellent service that topped off a wonderful lunch.
A cosy café. The foods in the chilled cabinet look delightful, but honestly the thing that has me so moved as to give them a 5 star review is that the hot chocolate was actually hot, not tepid as with many other places. Also that the drink was a very reasonable price of $5 for a large.
I had breakfast here due to the proximity to the accommodation I was staying at and I am glad I stopped in for breakfast. The coffee was nice but nothing exceptional where the rustic avocado was amazing, better than I expected.
Beautiful little Cafe. Food and coffee are always delicious. Today I had a mocha and the rustic avo and omg sooo tasty. My friend had the zucchini fritters which were also amazing. The staff are friendly and I like how they leave you alone to eat without asking how your food is, there's nothing worse than being asked how your meal is when you have a mouth full.
