Absolutely delicious brunch, the food was super fresh and i love how they decorate the dish with flower petals and other cute details. Can’t wait to come back! � ��
The coolest cafe in Footscray. Great place to watch the world go by.
Very friendly staff. Coffee beans are great. Got a soy flat white. Abit extra with the $1 soy milk however coffee is worth it. Didnt need to wait long for coffee
Used to be my go to cafe! Always ordered the southern fried chicken licken and its absolutely amazing! Customers are nice, small place but not a big fuss. Menu variety is great! Always coming out with amazing specials. the lobster benedict wasnt too bad! Definitely recommend this place though :)
Used to purchase a small latte and a toasted croissant every morning for uni. Best service I've had from a cafe for a long time. The coffee was refreshing and the croissant had a great amount of butter that made it that great pick me up before a lecture in the morning. Even though I don't go to the uni around the area no more, I still cannot match a coffee and croissant like Cafe Cui have.
Food: Eggs Benefit with mushroom & spinach + Bernie Mac and Cheese Lobster + Beef box burger
I really cannot fault Cafe Cui! As you walk in, the interior is modern and clean. The waiter who took our order was really attentive and professional. Most of all the food was deeelicious 👌🏼 The Lobster Mac and Cheese had generous amount of meat inside of the pasta and cheese mix, the shell was empty - just for presentation. The Eggs Benny was perfectly cooked, it tasted very light not like others I’ve had whether it tasted heavy. Lastly my partners Beef box burger, he said it was really moist and he’d definitely order it again. He was surprised a cafe could make a burger this good! Keep up the good work Cafe Cui 🙌🏼
PROS
Nice and comfortable inside seating area with good and friendly service. Monte carlo biscuits are an absolute treat 🤤 and good coffee.selection on grab and go deserts and breads in the display cabinet.
CONS
Booth seating material is getting a bit old and cracked but not a deal breaker.
FYI
well located across from footscray train station and one of the nicer cafe locations around footscray imo
Treated myself to a very indulgent weekday breakfast at Cafe Cui on Monday morning. I had seen pictures and looked at the menu and decided I needed to sample some of the lobster that seemed to be oddly prevalent on a Footscray cafe menu.
I eagerly ordered the Bernie Mac & Cheese Lobster. I was not disappointed as my little creamy pot of yum was served to me by one of the lovely staff. I slowly savoured every piece of my cheese covered macaroni and lobster and had zero regrets. Mr B went the LA Lobster Benedict. I little less pretty than mine, but still a well appreciated meal.
So many more things I want to order from this menu. Such a surprise given the location and the feel of Cafe Cui. Highly recommend giving this one a go. Get in there and indulge!

This new york inspired cafe serves a variety of your typical brunch dishes and a few different lobster menus. We got to try the lobster mac & cheese, queens lobster pasta and lobster roll. The brioche bun of the roll was outstanding. The lobster pasta was pretty good as well. We also enjoyed the mac & cheese but the portion is a little bit small.
Friendly staff, good service. Coffee was good too!

Heard some good reviews about this place and had to go try it out and honestly, it did not disappoint.
ORDERED:
Southern Fried Chicken Licken (MUST TRY)
The Lover Lover Lobster Roll (MUST TRY)
Definitely be back again for these!
Came here the other day for a late lunch and since the weather was a bit hot, we both decided to try a salad. I ordered the Thai beef salad while my boyfriend had the chicken Caesar salad. We both thought it was nice :)
"like a legit eggs benedict place" - bat~gf
I think it's kinda cool having a Vietnamese Cafe that serves all types of eggs benny. No complaints here really, enjoyed the iced viet coffee too.
Will come back for other eggs benny and burger lunches.
