> Breakfast special corn fritters with istra bacon, poached egg served on a bed of crispy coleslaw AND Breakfast burrito with free range smoked eggs, istra bacon + homemade smoky BBQ sauce| <
Smith Street Trader has been on my list of cafes to go to for about 6 months now, and I FINALLY got around to going! As we arrived the staff were smiling and eager to have us sit down and enjoy the experience there. Because they are not just a brunch spot, the atmosphere is very much like a night venue, so it is much more relaxed than a typical on the go café.
We were recommended to get these two tasty dishes and were very satisfied with both of them.
Breakfast Burritos’ are a new breakfast food for myself because not too many places offer them, however, I was really excited to give it a try and spice things up a little. It was quite delicious and I wasn’t expecting it to be much, but the combination of the bacon and egg released so many flavours and juices that it was too hard to not like this dish! It the wrap was very thick but with the amount stuffed inside, it had to be! The dish is generous and will leave you feeling full for a while. The bacon had a really nice, strong, smoky flavour, and the egg was thick and cooked perfectly.
These fritters have a lot of flavour to them, but are a little dry. The corn flavour is really strong, which is positive because they are corn fritters, but the coleslaw is dry did not work well with this dish. The portion size is huge so you will be full after demolishing this! The poached egg helps with the dryness of the fritters so the dish does balance itself out.
Overall, both these dishes were delicious and filling

Been a couple of times for lunch and once for dinner. Each time was a little quiet as it was either after the main lunch peak or they were having a function. Very attentive service each time. Sat out the back on a cold winter night for dinner nice and cosy under the heater. Food was great each time being cooked just right. Burger seemed fine but toastie was done with right combination of ingredients and toasted just right. For dinner the carbonara was light and my friends soup special was satisfying. Hand cut chips the first time and sweet potato fries were perfect. Will be back for more
Friendly staff, food was amazing I had the steak sandwich and my girlfriend had the chorizo dog and we were both very please will definitely be heading back
Not a Melbourne local and gladly stumbled across this cafe while looking for somewhere nice to have breakfast. Amazing service, exceptional food and Great coffee, we will be back for sure.
Stumbled across this place for breakfast during a weekend away in Melbourne. Easy to read menu with a wide selection of food and drink. Simple food done well for a good price with great service. We will definitely be back!
A pleasant breakfast

The bread is lousy
[Please please please management do yourselves a favour and improve the bread quality.]
What a delightful experience! Onion rings yum, guacamole yum, tacos yum...warm chocolate pudding, seriously yum. Best dessert on smith street. Thanks Smith Street Trader.
Been here for breakfast & lunch several times & the food has always been good. They have just started a Thursday Steak Night with a glass of shiraz. Porterhouse was great with mushrooms, carrots a tasty jus & hand cut chips. Shiraz wasn't the normal cheap house red it was a lovely Two In The Bush Shiraz. Finished off with an amazing Tarte Tatin. Keep up the great work guys.
Had lunch here yesterday. Had been before the place was renovated. The food was outstanding and service spot on. I sat out the front, one of the staff put the heater on for me as it was a little chilly. Enjoyed the Vegetable Soup special with cheesy garlic bread....wow! When I went to leave I saw they had a covered courtyard/beer garden out the back, investigated further and it would be the perfect place for a quiet drink or to even have a birthday party. They also have a heater out there as well! Love love love the renovation! Just what Smith Street needed!
Went here a while ago when we saw a happy hour offer from the car and had a spontaneous drink in the window. The couple sitting next to us raved about the place and the food. Last Sunday we went for a quick dinner. All the meat is free range which is awesome. Service was friendly. We had the burger and the schnitzel. The burger was average, the fries were nice. The schnitzel was nice, I liked the onion rings but buddy didn't.
Nice coffee shop on Johnston St end of Smith St. Cakes are fab!!
Wonderful place. We went there with a big group (27 people), realistically too big, but the staff did a sterling job trying to keep up. They were very pleasant, food was excellent, coffee good. I was very happy with how it went even though there were a few hiccups with orders. That was entirely acceptable given the circumstances and no one was bothered that a couple of things got a little mixed up. I'm sure during a normal day they would be extremely precise.
We have been here a few time for dinner and after work drinks. What a great place! Really love the the variety of dishes on the menu, and their great range of Craft Beers on tap, cocktails and the super wine list.
Down in Melbourne for the weekend and gladly stumbled across this cafe while looking around. Amazing food and exceptional service. If you're looking for a good place to eat with great food you can't go past Smith St. Trader.
Nice little unpretentious cafe/bar. There is a nice little courtyard out the back. Typical of the area, the decor is a bit grungy. But the food is pretty good. The breakfast burrito was my favourite.
Excellent food. Staff take pride in their food and good service. In the short time I have been coming here they seem to have a high level of respect for different types of clients and are able to handle some of the more old school Fitzroy/Collingwood people kindly if they are simply after a coffee or a cut lunch.
Have dined here several times for breakfast which has always been great. Booked for dinner last night for the first time with my wife. Food & service was friendly. Finished with a delicious chocolate pudding for dessert.
Great coffee, 50 cents cheaper than most places on Smith st. I go there for the complimentary gingerbread man they give with every coffee, it's a really nice touch!
