Review Brighton Schoolhouse - Brighton

First time for us in this unique place. Ordered coffee and breakfast. All served quickly and were tasty. The dishes were generous and we enjoyed very much. Atmosphere was great and vibe with the street was perfect. Will definitely be back !

FOOD Hangover breakfast - BIG breakfast!!! I love brunch food and I would say this is your go to if you're like me 😅 Charcoal pancake - playful colours and very nice presentation. First time I tried charcoal pancake and it was a good experience with all those toppings on it. Chai latte - I would suggest to order only one for two persons as it's more than enough SERVICE Staff are approachable. Quick service considering these food would take an ample amount of time to prepare. PLACE I love the vibe. You would love it too if you're into beautiful victorian architecture. The toilet is located outside and you need to ask for the key to access the toilet. Located near a church and thus, along the church street, I guess 😉

It was really nice, the waiters were very friendly and the food was delicious. Also they didn’t keep us waiting too long. 😃🍳🥞🥤

Good place for a catch-up. Parking is on the side roads. Outside dininig area is quite nice for young families with kids and pet owners. Food is also reasonably good.

Food was amazing, fresh, tasty, reasonable price, nice shady outside seating, just amazing!! Well done to cook. Staff was friendly and service quick and just perfect. I will recommend to everyone, family with children, meeting friends for lunch. Perfect!! Thank you to all working there!!

I'll start with the positive. Food was good, the venues aesthetic was nice. Someone clearly cared about this place when setting it up, but clearly no longer. Cutlery arrived after the food, even then, in real-time they missed putting the right amount down twice, somehow. Wrong food orders were delivered, they couldn't handle nut allergies, though at least they checked, that's something. The worst part. Apparently the concept of a birthday hadn't been introduced to the staff here. We dropped off a cake to come out later. After asking for it and waiting 15 minutes, my partner had to go retrieve herself, it was plonked on a table inside, candles still next to it in their packets. We then had to go find a different person since apparently that first person was satisfied with their work to bring us plates to enjoy the cake. We abandoned the candles as this was obviously too complex. Now, I completely understand they may have been short staffed (they didn't appear to be) And I understand times have been tough Read my other reviews. I don't generally write negative reviews. This place really rubbed us all the wrong way and I was super disappointed. Please train your staff or find staff that actually want to be there.

Sat outside which was lovely, but service seemed a little slow. I had a booking & requested a table under cover if possible and enough to fit a pram. When we got there and told them of our booking, they had tables available undercover but not for our table. They ladies asked me questions that seemed very disorganised as I made the booking on line and was very clear requests. They didn't seem to look at the booking or the requests. Kids food came out pretty quick. All our meals were good too except my 2 poached eggs, well 1 was hard & the other was runny. Oh well, coffee was great, that's what I mainly cared about! Used to be a local and come here a fair bit, they used to have an old run down play equipment for kids, it's completely gone, thank goodness but it would be great to see some new play equipment put back in. There's lots of space for it! Would be a big hit with the kids, especially the parents 😉 I would be back. Thanks...

Wonderful customer service. A slight change to a menu item was no trouble to this establishment. I'm a plain eater and appreciated them fulfilling my request. My meal was absolutely delicious. I had perfectly cooked salmon with a side of fries.

Had brunch at Brighton Schoolhouse on a busy Saturday morning; was very impressed by the amazing food and great service. The food came fast and was fresh. Would definitely recommend, so many great options on the menu, I was spoilt for choice!

Brighton School House was the cutest cafe around Brighton! I loved the smashed avo, and the coffee was amazing! The staff were amazing; very friendly and fast! The building reminds me of when I used to go to school back in the day, and my kids really enjoyed using the playground! Definitely recommend coming to this amazing cafe in Brighton! ��

Best brunch spot with heaters and blankets in the outdoor seating area for winter! Quinoa corn fritters are a must try but really everything is delicious and servings are generous! Friendly staff and great atmosphere

Not suprised to see a heap of one stars here. The service here is a joke! The front of house staff all seemed to be trying their best, but it was pretty obvious there is a SERIOUS LACK of management and leadership here. Our coffees took an hour... food all came out at different times and he had countless items we didn't order come to our table. How many tables did our food go to before we got it? Haha Then we went to pay and that was in shambles as well! Needless to say I'll give this joint a miss in the future, Melbs has too many solid options to be like this, lift ya game Schoolhouse, you can't just rely on a fancy location. I should say though, the coffee was nice and the food was nice, but not worth that wait. Get yourself a decent manager.

Great burgers Confused, inexperienced staff, lots of them, but no system, or attention to detail. Had to get our own menus, cutlery & napkins. Old water bottle on table, not changed, no glasses provided Painfully slow service. Was the food worth the wait? Probably not, when there are burgers everywhere, and just across the road. Shame, as the food was great!

Had such an amazing time here yesterday the staff food and drinks were all amazing! Perfect Sunday !

Pirate Pasta was YUM!!! Eggs Benny with brioche was delicious! Friendly staff, seated promptly, great service, delicious food. Good coffee. Will be back again!

I hada chille crab burger for lunch it was amazing not too hot served with potato wedges..

Great food , great service and just a great place to go to spend quality time over a meal with friends and family. We will always come back.

Great cafe! LOVE everything about the food and vibes. Love their smoothies and milkshakes most and there food is delicious �

Such a warm and friendly environment. Insane smoothies, milkshakes and coffees. Delicious food. Something to satisfy everyone’s tastes!

Enjoyed our lunch yesterday in the ole school room...food delicious & fresh & was impressed with the latte choices...i tried the tumeric latte!!

Guys. I know that staff shortages happen - but today there were 2 front of house only. I ordered 2 small dishes, after waiting for 50minutes without an update (despite multiple requests), without so much as water poured for me, I cancelled the order and got my money back. We made a special effort to come check the schoolhouse out. Certainly won't be making the effort again.

A regular of mine for Saturday breakfasts. Delicious food, friendly staff, great location and reasonably priced.

Good food and nice coffee! The rooms are filled with light. A chilled place to sit on any day.

Well worth a visit. Great coffee and gluten free food.

Food was yum, but smallserving sizes and a bit expensive for amount.

Lovely atmosphere & super kids friendly with nice outdoor play ground. yummy food & great coffee. Little gem � definitely will be back next time we are in Melbourne.

Great venue for breakfast, a wedding or a special birthday. Great staff, very helpful.

Great food, great service, beautiful setting. Needs aircon though.

Gorgeous friendly staff perfect to sit and have a coffee watching our kids play in the fenced outdoor area. Haven't yet dined inside but it looked like somewhere would love to try

Great food, good service. Definitely come back! :))

No flavour, not overly friendly staff and charged twice

Very poor service, tried to order a drink got ignored by the waitress, ended up walking out after ten minutes with no service.

Amazing service, delicious food, highly recommend!! 10/10.

Never been, but it needed a extra stars after someone below gave it a savage 1 star review.

Food was great but it took ages for the food to be served.
