Wonderful Sicilian donuts and thick rich hot chocolate! Heaven
Really Nice coffee and nice owners!!
Great coffee. BEST coffee in town we think! We are big coffee drinkers and my partner and I both think Tre Fontane make the best in Melb.
Highly recommended.
Have been coming to this little cafe since I was less than a metre tall. They have treated me and my family as if we were apart of they’re own. Wonderful service, always friendly. Make great coffees for a affordable price and are quick and efficient. Longest owners of a shop in ivanhoe strip. Keep it up boys. Xx
Come for the coffee, stay for the coffee. I have only ever had coffee here, but it is very good and worth the drive. Grab a drink, sit outside and soak up the sunshine.
The best hot chocolate I have ever had from one of my favourite little spots in Ivanhoe. Service is quick, their traditional panini's are full of flavour and the atmosphere makes you feel as though you're in Italy. Can't wait to get back.
Very cute cafe, once you walk in the door the smell of coffee and the fresh Italian doughnuts is absolutely amazing. They serve breakfast and lunch the coffee is very good and the service is friendly and attentive very reasonably priced but the doughnuts are to die for absolutely spectacular. Will go again. 👍😘☕️🍩 delicious.

Buon doughnutti. Homemade Italian doughnuts! I was hungry for exotic doughnuts after reading a story by Matt Preston about Melbourne's best fried dough treats in the Herald-Sun food section. Normally I believe the opposite of anything the Hun says, except I respect Preston because he got his start writing for The Age, before he became a TV identity. Tre Fontane’s window sign spruiking “Sicilian doughnuts” caught my eye on a long bike ride along the Yarra. These were nice nuggets of fried dough, studded with sultanas, with a cavity concealed in the centre. The texture was more spongey/yeasty than cakey. The thin round doughnut I had -- I’ll eat any kind of pastry I haven’t tried before -- did not work as well. It was oil-saturated and soggy, nowhere near as crisp and tasty as similarly shaped Lebanese doughnuts I’ve sampled.
My flat white, of course, was wonderful. It’s the Melbourne area, and it was made by an Italian. What else could it be but good? It had fine microfoaming, robust flavour but pleasantly creamy. The bloke running the place was a bit dour, but served me efficiently -- even brought my coffee and doughnuts (which were warmed, thanyouverymuch) out to the footpath table where I was sitting. I’m more focused on the taste of the food than the ‘tude of the staff, so Tre Fontane earns a “buono” from me.

People can say whatever they like because they can't run a cafe for so many years like theses guys.
I came back after a long absence and was served a decent coffee. Will return if I'm ever in the neighbourhood .
A friend who lives nearby took me here for a coffee. She said that her son had recommended the place. It's a charming and unassuming little cafe. We both ordered flat whites. Probably the best coffee I have had in Melbourne. And I consider myself an aficionado. I bought a couple of donuts and they didn't disappoint either. Genuine review.
Charming and modest interior, no-nonsense food with good quality ingredients, and one of the best coffees I've ever had in Melbourne served scorching hot, as it should be! Walked in just to satisfy my craving for a salami sandwich, and probably found my new favourite brunch spot. They have a lot of homemade pastries that looks great. Definitely not my last visit!
A really nice small cafe that seems to know and love coffee. A reasonable selection of pastries- both commercially and locally baked. The fresh blueberry muffin was superb.
Absolutely Gorgeous coffee. Don’t forget the Sicilian Donuts.
So many great options from coffee, donuts or cannoli to sausage rolls, paninis and pizza. During COVID great spot to get fresh produce as well. 👍
Feature excellent coffee, coffee making supplies and roasted coffee 'beans'. Quirky but very welcoming ambience. Very attentive and friendly proprietors. Try their home-made food. Sicilian donuts yummy!
Smooth long black with golden krema made by an experienced barista ~ excellent morning coffee ~ full of flavour. Great cafe for a quiet coffee and perfect place to read the paper. No fuss customer service. Definitely worth visiting.
Highly recommended little gem - must try Sicilian doughnuts, hot chocolate and of course coffee!
