Came here for lunch with my friend who had poached eggs and bacon while I had the mushroom burger with sweet potato chips! It was amazing! The coffee is the best I have had in ages! Definitely coming back to try the other dishes!!
Love this place. Good food. Service could’ve been better on the number of occasions I’ve been there and with different groups. But still giving a five for the food mainly.

Always great tasty food so healthy and delicious.. always presented beautifully. Thank you Trei staff and management for bringing such a beautiful cafe to our local area �
Super quick service, friendly staff and amazing paleo bread! Decent serving of avo too!!! Definitely worth the drive
Very good.. Service.. Only I wish I was out in the sun.. Too many people
We booked a Father's Day lunch and we really loved the food and the customer service ��
HEALTH FOOD HEAVEN at Trei Cafe in Glenwaverley! Can't believe I didn't find this place sooner. Too many things on the menu to make a decision, cute decor, friendly staff and DELICIOUS food! I love my Acai bowls and the coyo icecream on top was genius. The snickers smoothie is a must for you peanut butter lovers! 10/10 and my new local hangout!
GET HERE NOW! Just what the Eastern suburbs needed. Great vibe, professional service, an amazing menu catering for health nuts and the odd indulgent feast. Oh... Let's not forget the coffee! 5 stars***** Sarah is onto a winning formula, and the secret is out:)
Not sure how one finishes this.. So fluffy and decadent, this rassberry coconut goodness is something you have to try! Smelt sooo good too 🥞 if you haven’t got a big appetite I’d share with a friend :)
The place was busy even on a weekday. It has a good variety of vegan options for those with special dietary requirements.
Service was good.
The pancakes and cookies and cream smoothie were both super delicious! The pancakes came with a berry sauce, maple syrup, a pistachio crumb and some coconut ice cream. Drooling yet? You should be! They were epic! Could have easily shared with a friend though, they were enormous. The space is cute and well lit with different seating options. Menu has a range of options and I was glad to see a variety of vegan options.
Definitely check it out if you’re in the area!
Serving possibly the best coffee in the Glen Waverley area (especially with Kevin at the helm of the coffee machine), this small cafe gives life to an otherwise bland shopping strip.
Trei has a feminine feel to it, and, funnily enough, seems to have a largely female clientele. Perhaps it's the fit out or the dishes on the menu! (Maybe some meatier dishes - or pies - might bring more boys in!)
The food is delicious (and nutritious) however options for simpler dishes such as toasted sandwiches would be appreciated.
The staff tend to be very friendly but the wait for coffee and food can be a bit long earlier in the day when there’s not many staff there.
There are a few negatives - they don’t have newspapers available and it’s a little bit squashy when it’s busy.
(Please get some proper comfortable chairs for the front bench as those stools are not pleasant to sit on!)
Food was excellent and only took 5 minutes to come out.
Portion sizes are huge and very filling.
Service was great. Although some staff seem disinterested in what they are doing.
Used to come here three years ago and would get the greatest judgement and weirdest look from the waiters when I’d ask for something vegan. Now they finally realise it’s the norm! The $13 vegan lunches is great and is what got me and my friends coming back here again after a couple of years.
Had the raspberry pancakes and they were nice but not as great as they sound. After one pancake, then bread flavour is too much and they’re quite dry too.
The mushroom burger and beetroot latte are delicious though.
Such a cute little cafe to eat in and I can’t get over that amazing feature wall. Thanks for the meals Trei Cafe, I’ll definitely have to come back here soon. 😄
Good coffee and the menu is pretty alright too. Staff is friendly and upbeat. Nice well lit environment with soft and soothing pastel decor. Always busy during the weekends with steady traffic of customers. Centrally located on Blackburn Road and well worth the short walk to grab a morning coffee before weekday commutes to the city.
Really nice little cafe, today was very cold around 10° so very cold in the actual cafe, but atmosphere was relaxed. The waitresses we had were nice, but the one mainly serving was a bit snappy but not a problem just a note. The food was really nice, the coconut pancakes with raspberry was very nice, very sweet and extremely filling I could only get through half but the coconut ice-cream was lovely and the pistachios around the plate made it better for me tremendously. I also got the matcha smoothly and it tasted exactly like the caribbean green drink from boost which was really nice, overall good experience
Came here on the weekend and this lovely cafe is located in the heart of Syndal, be sure to get there early as it's quite busy. I love the decor in this place and the wonderful vibe that it brings. Got the vegan pancakes for a bargain at $13 which also came with Ice cream on top. It was so devine, tasty and so fluffy. The meals did take it's time coming out but after all I'm overly satisfied. I also grabbed a caramel slice at the end for $4.50 was so delicious and worth every penny.
Went here with mum today. All of their vegan dishes are $13 hahah. I had Goodness Bowl, my mum had her Green Bowl. They were nice, the only thing we don’t like was the KALE 🥬 SO SALTY 😂 Whyyyyyyy
Full house today, overall was pretty good tho.
Good coffee and chilled atmosphere within a modern minimalistic interior decor spells relaxing.

Been twice and enjoyed my experience both times. I got the nourish bowl on both occasions with added salmon and it was a filling meal. A very generous amount of rice though so I finished my toppings but not the rice. Coffee is decent and service could definitely be better, we didn't get acknowledgement from any staff for at least five minutes when walking in but overall a nice local spot for brunch.
The place is adorable and with vegan meals at only $13 you get great value. However I found that the menu was a bit of a hit or miss. The hotcakes were amaazing, so soft and tasted like custard filled pastry to me! The kenko bowl was quite bland and I didn't like the sauce it came with. The acai wasn't average but I wish someone had told me about the granola waiting for me at the bottom because that was delicious and I wish I could have eaten it with the acai instead of getting to it at the end! The cherry ripe smoothie was also pretty good, but the green matcha smoothie tasted just a bit too bitter and "healthy" for me (granted I'm not a big fan of green smoothies in general.) the staff was lovely and service was quick. Overall a pretty good experience!
Absolutely amazing cafe. One of my favourite places to eat! Especially for someone who eats clean, so no dairy or gluten I have wonderful selection of tasty food. Also Amazing coffees! In my case I get a chai latte with almond milk and one of my favourite chai spots. My partner highly rated the coffees too
A nice healthy alternative, Trei provides yummy food and good quality coffee too. Have been here a number of times and have always walked away happy. Sometimes the wait is a bit long but that’s a good sign of a busy and thriving cafe!
Great atmosphere, perfect for catching up with friends on the weekend. The service was quite slow but understandable. The price is average and yes, highly recommended!
The food here was incredible. The pancakes were some of the best, I'm not a big pancake lover. The nourish bowl was satisfying and yum. However the coffee was not good this day, bitter and watery and I couldn't finish it
I would be back for the food though!

Clean and cute cafe in Glen Waverley!
Trei Cafe, right next to Syndal station in Glen Waverley, is a small and cute cafe with great service and food! Had the Cookies and Cream Hotcakes from their $13 vegan menu and it was more than filling! The hotcakes were warm and dense, and went so well with the coconut vanilla ice cream and the strawberries.
Would definitely visit again in the future!
Really good big brekky, nice matcha latte, friendly service and well priced! Will definitely return! Bit of a wait on food today but it was worth it!
Honestly this cafe is so underrated.
The food is always great with reasonable prices too.
Best big breakfast by far. Their acai bowl is also massive for only $13!
The vegan menu is excellent! We ordered three different dishes and they were all delicious as well as beautifully presented. The service was friendly and welcoming. Highly recommend!
Came here earlier today for brunch with a friend, we both ordered the vegan cookies and cream hot cakes ($13) and it was delicious! Love that all vegan options are $13! Our waitress was very polite and friendly, and coffee was very nice and strong. Can't fault this place, will definitely be back!!
If you’re looking for a bit of a detox after some days of heavy and unhealthy eating then look no further. Located on a quiet strip of shops on Blackburn Rd in Glen Waverley, Trei is a small cafe offering some very healthy options. For the vegans and vegetarians, the menu has a range of options such as curry lentils, acai smoothie bowls, nourish bowls and mushroom burgers.
You guys, I mean...what an amazing place! I saw pictures on instagram and finally visited Trei. Service was so good. The staffs were so nice to talk with. I ordered pancake with ice cream. Delicious! Coffee was good! Definitely will back to try more!
I had a very simple order - takeaway soy flat white and a croissant. Both super delicious, turning a really simple brekky into a real delight.
Had the korean fried chicken in tacos. I also tried their green tea latte and cappuccino. Overall the food and coffee is great. Will definitely go back there.
Went here with some foodies friends and weren't disappointed! Good quality food with good quality service. We had to wait for 15 mins for a seat, but I like waiting because it's generally a sign that the food is on point!
A very on-trend, health-conscious cafe on the bustling Blackburn Road near Syndal Station, TREI has been my occasional go-to brunch spot for a reasonably guilt free feed.
Their nourish bowls are particularly good but on my most recent visit I had the Mango Panacotta ($14) which was extremely pretty but an also extremely light dish. Would definitely have appreciated some granola sprinkled around it. Also had the matcha latte which had a very weak matcha taste so was a bit disappointing. That being said, I’ve always enjoyed coming here in the past and can attest to the quality coffee and quality of the other dishes too.
This is the second time I've come here and it did not disappoint (again)! Everything we got was so pretty. The Eggs Benedict was delicious - the apple cider hollandaise was the perfect sauce for the pulled pork. Added a hash brown and it was crispy and delicious! My friend got the Smashed Avo and, from what I heard, was pretty yummy, too. For drinks, we got a flat white, hot chocolate and an iced chocolate - all made really well. Will come back for the rest of the menu :)
Editing review based on new menu: last menu was 4.5
Being regular customers of trei, we were excited to come in and try their new menu. We ordered the raspberry bowl and chocolate french toast. The raspberry was nice, but could use more toppings to balance it out, perhaps some granola?
The chocolate french toast was delicious but ultimately disappointing. Being one of the most expensive items on the menu, I expected more. It was quite small and could have been two pieces for $19.50.
The ambience is still lovely, tables are spaced nicely so you don't feel squashed in, and the cafe itself is bright open. Up until today, we have never had a problem with service, but it took 40 minutes for our meals to come out today, with tables ordering after us receiving their meals first.
Perhaps this was just an off day for trei, I would still recommend it if you are in the area. There is ample parking and it's also near syndal station. However, stick to the old favourites such as the acai bowl and breakfast burger.
Walking home from the CAR MECHANIC, this Whippeteer and Wasabi 'the super pup' (now quite a young lady - 3.5yo Whippet -Snob/Dog Bully/Butt sniffer/Dog treat scammer) felt like a coffee, AS YOU DO! Owner, not the dog LOL.
So, Trei has been here for a few years, and the queues seem to have settled down. At this point, some places seem to get sold off to new owners and then standards drop. NEITHER has happened here.
Top quality coffee is the norm. The latte was simply SUPERB. $3.50 for a small is reasonable. Service prompt/efficient/friendly.
Ps on a hot day, this cafe sits nicely in the shade in the mornings.....
Located locally in the SYNDAL suburb, Trei offers a modern, pleasant looking menu that screams aesthetic food. As it only has a small area, it does get pretty crowded and noisy however the food is good. I ordered the Chicken Satay bowl and even tho it was really filling, the brown rice were plain dry. The food was bland but not bad!
Love the service and environment. Coffee is great, food is a little pricey though. Really like their turmeric latte and almond croissant. Parking is easy, wish their opening hours on Saturday is a little longer.
Located in Syndal, TREI is a crowd favourite for Monash Uni students (well if you haven’t caught a bus down to visit - you know where to go next!) Their bright interior makes brunch joyous and almost happier. They have a range of healthy options (YES to granola and açai bowls AND pancakes! ♥️) and the perfect combination of big breakfasts! Coffee is fantastic too.
TREI is a cute little neighbourhood cafe that offers up a menu that’s definitely on-trend and visually appealing. The diverse offering is bound to satisfy both the health-conscious as well as those looking for a more gluttonous feed.
While the execution wasn’t quite perfect, we certainly enjoyed our brunch here, and the real winner would undoubtedly be that signature nourish bowl.
Great food - very healthy and nice presentation. The staff serving were friendly and very helpful. Has a trendy feel about it and nice decor
Very attentive staff members :) Everyone is so nice no matter how busy they are.
This is my favourite cafe spot to chill and calm down before or after a long day of studying at Monash University. Their soy latte and raspberry muffins are must trys :)
Trei café is serving up healthy meals for breakfast and lunch proving healthy doesn’t have to be tasteless. You can have the flavour without the guilt. The food is fresh, tasty and full of colour. Trei cafe – lattes. We started brunch with some latte’s. Regular and matcha. Trei cafe – sweet potato fries
We visited Trei cafe on a Monday afternoon. Most of the cafe was filled up but luckily there was still one spare table at the back.
1) Coconut Chicken Satay Bowl - This was a bowl of utter goodness. I loved all the ingredients in it (eg. chicken, kale, avocado, broccoli, poached egg, brown rice). The satay sauce was nice, not too overpowering and the egg was runny. The only little let down was maybe the chicken was a bit overcooked.
2) Pulled Pork Benny - Very pretty looking dish. Eggs were cooked well. The hollandaise sauce was creamy. The pulled pork was a bit dry though.
3) Big Breakfast - This was good. It was big and plentiful. The sunny side eggs were cooked well, weren't burnt which was good, and there was a nice amount of avo and mushrooms. The toast had butter on it which was our fault because we forgot to tell the waiters not to put butter on, but that is more of a personal taste thing haha.
4) Coconut Hotcakes - This would be the instagram dish of the day. It was simply gorgeous. Loved the bright colours. In terms of texture, the hotcakes were light and fluffy but didn't have much taste to it. The coconut nutmeg ice-cream was velvety smooth but I didn't really taste the coconut. The nutmeg taste was definitely way stronger.
5) Matcha Latte - Ohhh that was a good cup of matcha. Enjoyed it :D
Overall, pretty satisfied with the food. I loved the coconut satay bowl the best. I would eat that again. Although we didn't order it, but the sweet potato wedges with the guacamole looked amazing!!

The Arabica is strong and has a good taste to it, food excellent and there is not a long wait, as well as the customer service that the cafe has is exceptional .
Not bad, not great. I had the breakfast burger and there was honestly too many flavours going on. Drenched in sauce which was difficult to eat. Menu specified haloumi, but it came out with saganaki which I don't enjoy as much.
Have been going to Trei for just over a year now and the coffee is always good.
The staff are friendly which makes for a great atmosphere.
Will continue to visit 😊
Lovely cafe! Bustling and busy at midday - we were lucky to get a table. Fantastic menu with such a great variety of veg options! I ordered the nourish bowl with a lemon hot water. The bowl was so good! The mix of different veggies were all cooked perfectly and tasted great together. The staff were friendly and food came pretty quickly. Would highly recommend a visit!
A bloomingly busy little cafe on the weekends. Recommend coming by just 10.30, to sneak in before the peak rush. The coffee was decent (not bad but not one of the best I've had) and the panacotta was wobbly and enjoyable! Recommend the milk though, the granola gets a bit tiring to munch all the way through!
Food is fabulous, coffee always great, chia delicious, consistently great, never disappoints ever!! Quick friendly service!! Absolutely one of my favs!!!
👍🏻 great friendly staff who check how's everything going
👍🏻 great and yummy food
👍🏻 modern cafe look very clean
Breakfast burger was so delicious with the black bun.
I had lunch at TREI Café today, and it was a pleasurable experience. The small menu had several options, catering to both non-vegetarians and vegetarians. The Southern Fried Chicken Bao was delicious. The chicken was tender, juicy, and crispy, while the bao was soft. The portions are decent, the service is swift, and the girl who served us was friendly and cheerful. A cute little gem in Glen Waverley, definitely recommended.
Nice and fresh ambiance, smiling & welcoming staff. Good good variety in breakfast menus. Must drink Dirty Chai if you are tea lover and need that extra coffee kick.
My wife tried Chai Latte and that was perfect too. Enjoy your day with cup of coffee at TREI. Cheers
I've been here many times and each time, it's always delivered the goods. Ambience is warm and opening, service was also great.
One of the big breakfasts that I felt was close to good value, compared to other brunch places. And is hard not to order it each time, it's just put together very nicely so it has my recommendation. Juicy mushrooms too!
Not sure what changed about the freshly squeezed OJ though, but the texture/quality of it has dropped and was once something I always got.
Awesome coffee and the red velvet pan cakes were excellent. Impressive customer service
Coffee was delicious, nice blend with excellent milk foam. Good value at $12 for 2 coffees and a hot chocolate. Only criticism is that it could have been a little hotter. Service was very friendly too.
