Delicious breakfasts with amazing coffee and wonderful team... and now dinner on Friday and Saturday nights! Hello cocktails and delectable (not to mention gorgeous) food. Highly recommend the Coco Loco and Drewspresso Martini! The spinach and ricotta agnolotti was devine... and the chocolate tart... woah! Such a cool, laid back, local atmosphere. Awesome.

The definition of a great local. This is a little gem in Clifton Hill. The staff are so friendly, the environment is very inviting and cosy. Great variety of cabinet food, deli and ala carte menu. The sandwiches are soooo good and they have some tasty bread, pastries and pies from Tivoli. Extra love for them giving away free grounds and accepting KeepCups.

I wish this was my local it’s so great. Warn and inviting, generous food portions and mimosas as well! We also checked out their Friday evening selection and that was just as good. I know this sounds like a paid review, it’s really not - I just love this place!

Love to come here on the weekend for their poached eggs and greens. Served with a delicious garlicky hummus and toasted pita. I also opted to add the sujuk on the side.

I liked this place. Obviously an old milk bar converted into a cosy cafe with good front and back areas. It’s certainly a thriving business. It’s in the back back streets of Clifton Hill but has an impressively constant stream of customers.

There’s a low key casual decor that sort of works here. Low key but effective service throughout as well too. Not many smiles here but plenty of efficiency. I had the pork and beans dish which I adored. A great dish for another cool grey Melbourne day. The pork and fennel sausages in this dish were spectacularly good. As good as you could make, I reckon. If they were made on site someone here is a sausage maker of rare genius. They’re superb. The beans were lovely as well with nice heat evident from the jalapeño. Nice bits of ciabatta to spread the beans on as well. This was a really lovely and perfectly sized dish. The world’s most beautiful woman was disappointed in her dish though. It was a toastie with pulled pork. I had a taste and liked it but she wasn’t keen on the chilli in the pulled pork. Her point was that the chilli part wasn’t noted on the menu and she wasn’t keen on the unexpected heat. A real shame.

Super coffee to finish. We both really enjoyed our respective coffees, a long black and a flat white. They kindly gave one coffee free because of the unnoted chilli in the toastie.

I’d definitely return here. I liked the place.

Lovely corner cafe at an unexpected location. Friendly service and nice coffee. Once went with a big order of takeaways and it was done very fast.

Best stop for iced coffee on the city trail as it’s very hot today welcome reprieve, water bowl dogs catered for and friendly leafy suburbs.

Accidently good .....

Melbourne will always be full of surprises .... and this Uncle Drew is no different.

Once you can find it, corner block, it looks deceivingly small from the outside, full of vintage one-off furniture.

Back room is prefered.

Twice visited, Latte was ordinary on the first visit, their pour over is much better and classier.

Quite a good Menu, although it was a bit burnt. JT-16/11/2017

Stunning! Great food coffee and friendly service. Fish burger with so many good things going on - watercress, herby mayo, mint leaves, tzaziki. Plus it’s own little raddiccio and Walnut salad. Too good! This cafe is the best kept secret in the area.

Really good coffee. Really good staff. Lots of food choices and deli choices. I highly recommend these guys if you are in the area. Just off the capital city trail and this store is bike friendly. I was impressed with the speed of service and the quality of the food and drinks. Can't wait to visit and go shopping through the whole store.

Really enjoyed the Bircher Mueseli with overtones of tumeric. Well made cafe latte and good service. Seats 10 inside with quite a few tables outside. I did notice power points with USB near the tables inside which is a nice touch. Good selection of pastries at the counter too.

Love the 'rekindled' corner shop concept. Food is great, as is the coffee. Loved the prawns on house made brioche. A great ambiance both inside and out.

2nd visit to Uncle Drew for brekkie with friends and it did not disappoint. I asked for softly scrambled eggs (rather than chopped up omlette) and it was perfect. Accompanied by tasty bacon and delicious mushrooms topped with melted haloumi. My breakfast companions also agreed their offerings were delicious too.

We love this bloody joint!!! It is a pure joy having this as our local cafe. Whether its a coffee on a weekday, brunch on a weekend or popping by for Tivoli Rd bread or to pickup some milk - its always great quality food and coffee and great service. No questions as to why its so popular with the locals.

Located in residential area in Clifton. There are a lot of people who are waiting for coffee served during lockdown. I got a latte. It was good coffee.

This is one of the best cafés I've ever been to in Melbourne! It has -terrific food (esp. Uncle's brunch medley) -very good beverages -lovely venue -fantastic customer service -brilliant location -easy parking It's also fair priced and dog friendly! Uncle Drew is going to be my go to place when I have friends from out of the town coming for a visit. Because it's a good representative of the coffee and bunch culture of Melbourne! I strongly recommend it to everyone.
