Wonderful service, very busy Australia day PH, staff apologised coffee would be a bit of a wait. Delivered food and coffee on time. Food was delicious, coffee is devine. I will be back.
Amazing food & Coffee, In a cool old home :)
Best staff, best food, best place to study or meet up with mates. Love love love.
Super buzzy cafe in the heart of alt-Brunswick. The Cajun tofu sandwich I had was delicious, something pretty unique on a brunch menu. Lovely service as well.
Vegan and dog friendly cafe with great coffee, friendly staff and good food though my meal was (in my opinion at least) overpriced. I had the cajun tofu toasted sandwich and at $17.50 it seemed about $5 more than what I’d expect. For that I’d expect a small side salad or chips but it was fairly basic. You can get an equally delicious jaffle at Union Kiosk for $9. The vegan mudcake I took away was delicious and good value at $5. My friend had an egg on toast and it was as ordered. She only wanted one piece of toast and we were told it wouldn’t change the price. I don’t make many changes to dishes so I’m not sure if this is standard but it was disappointing to hear. I’d return for coffee and cake and the good vibe.
Cosy atmosphere and the best brunch food. Staff are not always friendly but never stuff up the order. Great coffee and the beans are to die for.
Amidst a hub of over designed hipster cafes, I love the rustic vibe of a Minor Place. Vintage fixtures, stained glass and well-chosen art lay the perfect backdrop for a coffee, cocktail or meal. My hot soy flat whites are always great thanks to Industry Beans and skilled baristas. I also appreciate the consistent vegan sweet options and adaptable menu.
A nice cafe with plenty of indoor and outdoor seatings. Gets busy on the weekends and can be difficult to get the attention of the staffs. But the service is good and quick. The breakkie was delicious and the coffee was awesome (industry beans). 10% surcharge on weekends and public holiday.
Discovered this joint recently on a dog walk. Had the tofu sanga for brekky. Came back and had it again for lunch. This joint ticks all the boxes.

Great laid back ambience, lovely baristas and yummy coffee. Wins all ‘round. Not heaps of gf options. Well rounded menu regardless. I like the local setting.
Delightful little cafe in Brunswick. Excellent food and staff - menu is great and the coffees fabulous too.
Outdoor seating is perfect for watching the numerous pooches wander past. Can get busy so worth booking with a big group.
A cool space. A feel and layout to the cafe that nicely matches the neighbourhood location. Variety in the space, with benches, tables and chairs, bench seats with cushions, and outdoor tables. An example of the attention taken to the space is a huge square table with bench seats that supports large green pot plant to potential offer relatively private seating to multiple groups. There’s also a cool little hole in the wall for footpath takeaway service.
The menu made deciding on food a difficult decision. But cauliflower and poached eggs lured me into the Turkish breakfast. A regretful choice unfortunately. A pretty and colourful presentation but only 4 bits of little cauliflower to accompany a very buttery sauce. The bread was good and pomegranate seeds were a nice touch but this wasn’t really enough to overcome the oiliness and the bowl of runny textures. I found myself really eyeing the quinoa, pumpkin and rocket salad bowl.
Awesome Brunswick vibes at A Minor Place 😎
Had the bubble and squeek recently and loved the richness of the dish and something a lil different for breakfast. Nice innovation on that one.
Nice coffee.
Intimate but cool feel amongst lovely period homes in the neighbourhood.
Nice job guys 👌
Edit - tried the chilli prawn scramble - straightforward but could have used a touch more salt and spice. Good if you want a milder menu item though. Club sandwich was nice and fresh with crispy waffle fries, yum!
Edit edit!: Grabbed the club sandwich (again) and steak sandwich. Massive serve which led me to take half home for a dinner special! Tasty, however the steak sandwich is a touch on the sweet side for my tooth.
We had a lovely meal at A Minor Place this Sunday. We have come on and off for over two decades. The menu is just as good, if not better than when we started coming. This weekend, I had the Minor Brekky, my partner had the Okonomiyaki. Both were excellent - fresh, hot and delicious. Some tips for eating here on the weekend: It is super busy and there is often a line up between 10-11. Given current conditions I would recommend booking a table to reduce wait time. Also, as there are a lot of people waiting to be seated, the staff told us they would prefer us not to hang out and use laptops during a busy period. Be prepared to eat and go on a public holiday, Saturday or Sunday morning. There is also tons of seating but this means the staff are absolutely run off their feet. Be prepared to wait a little to receive your coffee and food orders.
A gem! Gorgeous little Cafe, delicious food. The menu had way too many delicious options and was hard to decide.
We all left with full bellies and happy
nice little Cafe, nice staff good food, average prices, recommend and will happily visit again
The food was delicious! Really tasty fresh ingredients cooked well. Only one thing I think they could improve on is having sharper knives, like steak knives. The butter knifes have trouble cutting through the toast.
Food and atmosphere is top knotch though. Feels like you've cooked yourself a nice breakfast at home and you're sitting out on your balcony or backyard eating it.
My partner and I love going here - We have been for 8 years now and always perfect coffee, delicious food/pastries and cool, kind staff. Such a cool place to sit for hours and read, chat and just be out of the city. One of the best hidden gems in Melbourne.
