There are so many great cafes in Hawthorn, with locals definitely spoilt for choice. One of my favourites is Bawa, with it's open space, floor to ceiling windows and minimalist decor. Lots of grey, white and green touches makes for a lovely spot to dine.
The coffee is excellent quality, nice and strong; and worth returning for. We weren't overly hungry, so we shared a bircher muesli and a carrot cake from the display cabinet. The cake was nicely spiced and moist, with the most delicious cream cheese frosting. Carrot cake is my favourite, and this mini loaf was a winner.
The bircher was divine. The creamy oats were topped with fresh berries, craisins and pistachios. This mix really worked with the flavour of the bircher muesli, and it was a satisfying dish.
Bawa is the type of place that makes you happy; with pleasant staff, excellent service and quality, fresh food served in interesting ways. The classic brunch dishes have fun twists, and everything is delicious enough to keep me coming back.
Had a lovely breakfast this morning, with the hype of Corona Virus we were glad to have a cafe open. We ordered Eggs Benedict which were lovely and a Californian super salad which was yummo..coffee was nice, service and cafe both pleasant..
Visited Bawa Cafe for brunch yesterday and were treated with a delicious meal. The decor is bright, clean and spacious and staff were friendly + attentive.
We ordered the Chilli Scramble, Pumpkin Piadini with chips and two coffees. For me, it was the perfect chilli scramble with just the right amount of chilli + cheese. It was a generous portion which I loved and was very full after! The pumpkin piadini was very nice too and served with perfectly golden, crunchy chips.
Bawa has a pretty standard brunch menu but seems to execute all the dishes very well. If your in the Hawthorn area, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend a visit!
