St Rose is a bustling and lively cafe located along Rose St Essendon directly across the road from the railway station. Visiting on a warm day for brunch we sat along the communal table out the front of the cafe.
We shared the sauteed greens, Acai bowl and walnut bread to eat along with a detox juice and coffee to drink.
The sautéed greens with Persian feta, sautéed kale, green beans, a poached egg, pumpkin purée, pesto, dukkah & toast was packed full of flavour. Each of the components of the dish worked beautifully together, I loved the pumpkin purée. Generously portioned this dish makes for a great healthy option.
The beautifully presented Acai bowl was very refreshing and one of the best Acai bowls I’ve had to date. Topped with banana, peanut butter, organic crumble & fruits, it was vibrant and full of texture.
The walnut bread was nicely complimented with caramelised banana, vanilla cream, dulce de leche & walnut powder. This dish was simple and comforting, although I wouldn’t have minded a little bit more sauce.
Overall I had a fantastic experience at St Rose, I loved vibe and atmosphere of this cafe, you can tell it’s very popular with the locals. The food, coffee and service was top notch, I recommend that you check them out if you’re in the area. I rate St Rose ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ our of 5. Thanks very much for having me.

Somehow my review disappeared which is annoying but anyway we were invited to St Rose for one of the most delicious brunches ever. I utterly adored the golden bircher which had the most beautiful flavours and looked equally stunning. Hubs and I were fighting over it despite he originally saying he wasn’t going to have any!
I also had the avocado toast again which is second to none on the breakfast scene with so many flavours and textures going on and presenting like a delicious edible rainbow. I can not fault a thing about this place, flawless
Original review
We were invited to St rose today, a cafe conveniently located directly opposite Essendon station. I began with an absolutely delicious mango passion crush smoothie as we waited for our food to come.
I chose the avocado toast because I’ve tried this dish at their sister cafe No 19 and absolutely love it. It’s presented slightly differently but the same yummy flavours are very much present. Hubby got the California bowl because he’s boring, but as far as healthy dishes go it actually looked quite appealing.
I couldn’t go past the paco which is cleverly plated to look like a chocolate taco but it’s actually a thick pancake wrapped around a Oreo ricotta mix and covered in white chocolate crumble and salted caramel sauce. 10/10 for creativity! I was super impressed with the uniqueness of the dish. Lovely staff too
