Just love it here, the service is very accommodating and friendly, the coffee is excellent, and the food is consistently good. One of my favorite spots to stop for brunch and it’s always busy.
This was the place my family would go when we had family breakfast. Also went with other people sometimes. It’s crazy how life just changes all the time. Like one minute I’m living in Croydon then all of a sudden I’m living out of my van because there was no room for me at home. Currently living in mount Evelyn. Coffee 7/10
Dropped in for brunch last Friday morning. Staff were very friendly and immediately placed water, glass and menu on my table and took my coffee order. The menu has a good variety of vegan, vegetarian and gluten free options. I chose the housemade granola with seeds, nuts and cinnamon, served with coconut yoghurt, stewed rhubarb and a poached pear. It was beautifully presented, delicious, healthy and kept me going for most of the day.
Update: two days later, went for brunch with friends and it was a totally different experience to above :( service was very slow and extremely confused. Staff had no idea which table the coffees belonged to and went from table to table asking diners. Male waiter looked like he would rather be elsewhere. Poached eggs had clear uncooked whites and mushrooms were cold. Such a different experience from two days earlier. Consistency needs to be improved.
Best coffee in town! Have come here a number of times for breakfast and coffee and enjoyed each time! The area out the back is nice to sit in on a nice day!
Kofi Beans seems to be the place to go in Croydon on a Sunday. Situated on Main Street there’s a true local cafe vibe to this family owned venue. While the rest of Croydon was enjoying a fairly sleepy Sunday, Kofi Beans was packed to the rafters...
One of the nice place in Croydon to have a Brunch. Food was amazing. Very attentive staff . Super fast, friendly service. We will definitely come back..
highly recommend
Good coffee. Seems empty from the outside but is busy inside! Good feel about it and seems a popular sit down lunch spot. Could possibly do with an extra staff on to help the girls.
I have been here about 5 times now and always impressed with coffee and food. The portions are always big and always great quality. They also change the menu up frequently. Awesome to see they have lots of vegan options as well!
Also- the staff that work there are always so lovely and it’s great service. I could come back again and again and never get sick of this place!

We were invited to Kofi Beans on the weekend, a space that impressed from the outset. I loved the middle eastern style decor, very unique for a cafe interior and not only did it really differentiate the place it created a fabulous atmosphere.
I took the opportunity to try a blueberry latte, never having seen one on a menu before. The flavour was quite subtle when compared to other speciality lattes but they also offer taro which is one of my favourites you can’t get everywhere so I would recommend trying that. The drinks menu was very well rounded from Turkish coffee to Vietnamese iced coffee to shakes and juices and everything in between. A couple next to us were also sitting and enjoying a bottle of wine.
Food wise we went with one of the specials breakfast bruschetta with roast tomatoes, feta, roquette, beetroot pesto, poached eggs and sweet balsamic on Turkish pide. I liked this dish but it wasn’t what I expected. Bruschetta conjured images to me of diced tomatoes with balsamic atop it. I didn’t find the balsamic on the plate and the two tomato halves were on the side of the plate. The feta was also on the salad rather than the bread but the eggs were perfectly poached and the beetroot pesto extremely delicious.
My husband had the fritter dish and I tucked into the waffle meringue pie which was one of the best waffle dishes I’ve had. The lemon curd and torched meringue were ingenious toppings and the berry injectors gave the presentation further pizzazz and also added another flavour dimension. I was also impressed with their extensive vegan menu. Suffice to say this suburban cafe vastly exceeded my expectations.

Upon entering this cute café I fell in love with the interior , the light fixture looked like lanterns and the café was bedazzled with silver hardware and mirrors which created a nice open atmosphere.
We decided to opt for a nourish bowl, baked eggs and a lemon meringue as a sweet to end the meal. The nourish bowl with added chicken was a nice surprise as it was extremely flavoursome. Usually with this , we order it for health and compromise on the taste however with this one , my partner and I were constantly fighting over this bowl! The cauliflower rice had bags of flavour and the chicken was well seasoned
The baked eggs was another nice surprise as it was more like a stew, there was no tomato base which is the usual baked egg flavour combination you would get at other cafes. Adding pulled lamb with this made this a winner for me ! I also love how buttery the bread they served alongside the dish was
The Lemon Meringue waffle came out and it was as pretty as a picture, the curd was smooth and very tart which I liked, the meringue was soft and did not stick to the roof of your tongue. This was a great end to our Brunch and we found that it was also not too sweet
Thankyou Kofi Beans for having us !

Came here for brunch. The menu looked great, plenty of options for vegetarians, vegans and omnis.
Ordered (can't remember what it was called) a falafel on a pita with poached eggs, and lots of different flavours. Really delicious. The falafels are crunchy, perfectly cooked eggs, so really nice texturally. The dukka and pomegranate added more interest with crunch and sweetness. Good amount of food too. The price is a little high, but happy to pay that for what you get.
Also ordered a salmon benedikt. Was really nice with the delicious benedikt sauce. The salmon tasted fresh and the eggs cooked perfectly. The coffee was good, tasted nice. Nothing to rave about but no complaints.
My only issue was the waitress! She wasn't very friendly, and I find a friendly wait person can make a huge difference to cafe experiences. Definitely encourages customers to return. We had a few requests (to move tables once one was free - it was busy and we were placed on the community table and the seats were very uncomfortable, and new glasses as the first ones given to us were dirty), and she just seemed like we were bothering her, despite us being as polite as possible.
That aside, I would encourage anyone thinking about visiting this place to go!
I called into Kofi Beans to grab a takeaway large flat white coffee, the décor is really interesting, the service was very friendly and the coffee was really nice. They have a really nice selection of food on their menu including vegan options and I have enjoyed coming here occasionally to eat in over the last few years.
I love coming here, the food is so beautiful and the staff are always wonderful. Even in busy times (which is often) they make you feel seen and heard, anytime I’m in croydon I come here and always enjoy whatever I order.
Another fantastic brunch spot ❤️ they serve up decent coffee and am in love with their white chocolate mocha.
The eggs benny is a MUST TRY!! It is absolutely stellar, the hollandaise sauce was rich and creamy, topped with smokey hamhock 🤤
(am convinced that they mastered this brunch dish)…it was truly a standout! 🌟
Honourable mentions are their pita breads and dips, and their chips too! The food is absolutely divine and I can’t wait to go back for more.

Great vegan options. Had the Pumpkin salad and it was divine - every ingredient added flavour and complexity making it a delightful dish.
Decor and staff were lovely as well.
Will definitely be back!
Had breakfast and I can't rate their pancakes more highly enough. Vanilla pancakes with bacon are pretty darn good. Coffee is well made and the foods tasty, what more could you ask for... Oh staff are always be friendly!
Excellent service. They pay quick attention to everyone coming through the door and are always warm and welcoming to everyone. Their food is delicious. Definitely a local favourite.
Car was getting serviced around the corner so came for a quick coffee. Turned out my car took a while so they were nice enough to let me plug in my laptop in and work there for the day. Lovely crew of people and great food, highly recommend.
