Great place to eat and the service is amazing the staff are so helpful and courteous always love going there.
We have been having Sunday Brunch at Mamma Says for many years..guess that says it all. Food is consistent and good. Friendly attentive staff and Coffee is always good.
Mamma Says on Station Street is a favourite amongst the locals. The menu contained the usual brunch favourites featuring eggs like a few varieties of eggs benedict, omelettes, and the big breakfast, as well as a couple more decadent selections like pancakes and french toast. There were also lighter options like toast, muesli and yoghurt, and more substantial mains for lunch like chicken parma, grilled lamb and steak sandwich. There are plenty of choices to suit a variety of tastebuds and appetites. We have been to Mamma Says twice now, and can confirm that is consistently great, whether for a quick coffee or a proper meal.
I love the coffee from Mamma Says! I have tried their donuts and muffins and they are delicious and fresh.. the service is always good from the lady behind the counter to the friendly barista.
Absolutely delicious food and fantastic friendly staff. The only down side is the location as parking is a nightmare. However it is worth the effort.
I was looking for quick breakfast in the area and glad we stumbled across this place. Service was great. Coffee was great! My husband says 5 stars for the French toast with mascarpone and pistachios! It was delicious. My apricot toast was yum! We will be back to try more!
I believe that the quality of a cafe can be judged in their simplest meal. If you can make me an egg and bacon which reverberates throughout my soul and puts me in a good mood for a week; you’re doing your job well.
I ordered a brunch of poached eggs, avocado, smoked salmon and hollandaise and woweee mamasita I was NOT DISAPPOINTED! Portion wise; very generous. 2 slices of toast and enough smoked salmon for egg/salmon medley forkfuls WITH salmon leftover at the end. Hollandaise was delicious and still warm, and avocado bright green and SLICED not mashed (not trying to hide and bruises 👏)
Great service, great coffee. My only criticism is that the benches are too high for the tables...leaving one feeling as if they are sitting on a throne 😂
Living in and around Fairfield and Northcote we’re spoilt for choice when it comes to food, in particularly breakfast and lunch. Mamma Says is easily one of the best in the North with their choice for breakfast and lunch, they tick all the boxes.
The thing that stands out for me is their Coffee. I’ve pretty much tried every cafe in Fairfield and surrounding suburbs and found they have by far the best Coffee in the North.
Perfect
I went to Mamma Says after a nice morning of horse riding. I ordered the Amatricana and I was very impressed with the sauce. Was slightly spicy plus the servings sizes of both my dish and my friend's pasta dish were huge! We couldn't even finish our meal!
The biggest highlight for me was definitely the smoothie I ordered which was called the Cold Killer. It is a dairy free smoothie with peach, nana and raspberry sorbet with orange juice and multivitamins. Definitely one of the best smoothies I've ever tried and I would come back again just for the smoothie!
A nice little cafe. I quite liked the look and feel of the place. There appeared to be various works by Banksy on the walls and that certainly works for me. I had a large coffee and a slice of banana bread. The coffee was expertly made. I like my mugs of coffee and more often than not they're under strength. Not here. It was lovely and creamy and just the right strength. Top marks. The banana bread looked ok but was sadly too sweet in my view. The staff were lovely here and the place had lovely comforting vibe about it. I liked it and I wouldn't hesitate to return.
Quite possibly the best coffee I've ever had. The big breakfast was great as well. Good value for money, high quality produce and nice atmosphere.
A great cafe is more than just good food and great coffee – as there are many places that can boast that.
A really great cafe has a heart and soul and staff than make you feel at home. Mamma Says is all of the above.
Food and coffee service is fast, for eat in or take away, and the speed never compromises the quality. The meals are a substantial and additional elements or variations come with a real smile and not a grimace. When you can deal with a carnivore, a vegetarian fussy kids and not break a sweat you’re on a winner.
More importantly the tag of kid friendly is not lip service our children are always greeted by name and with a big hearty smile. The friendly banter and ready smiles just make it tick, tick, tick.
Mamma Says is unashamedly my local and destination of choice.
Always great food & service
Came here while on a visit to Melbourne and had looked for cafes with vegan options near where we were staying. This place ended up being a totally AMAZING find. Staff were super friendly and helpful around the menu and the food was incredible. The whole menu is plant-based and there is a range of options from healthy to indulgent. We had both vegan and non vegan people in our group and everyone loved their meals. The cafe has inside and outside seating, plus is pet friendly. The coffee is great, and takeaways are available. Honestly would eat here everyday 😊
Had a nice meal with the family. Service was friendly and food was served in a timely manner. They have gelato up to the front as well as good selection of dessert. Will still return here though as it isn't bad.
I grabbed a muffin and a cookie on my was to F1 race. The muffin: hash brown and egg (all plant based) was amazing and so tasty. Much better that i expected and can really recommend it. Cookie was super too. Next time I will try the Parma from the menu. And staff is so friendly.
Quite busy but a lovely place. Staff was very friendly. My risotto was absolutely fantastic !
One good coffee deserves another, so I bookended my Big Breakfast with oat milk cappuccinos. And breakfast was very tasty, too!
The food here is incredible! Amazing staff, great vibes. So many vegan options that everyone can enjoy. One of my favourite places in Melbourne
Amazing new plant based menu a treat in the inner north for vegans! Amazing food lovely staff and great coffee. We had the Mediterranean grill plate and the chili scramble tofu both were very tasty and the portions were very generous.
