Ora's coffee is one of the best in Kew area. I am not a big fan of sweets & cakes in general, but most of their sweets & cakes have great balance of texture and tastes.
The lunch specials are great - "Spiced Tiffin Egg" is one of my favorites. The eggs are deep fired with a special crispy coat and the egg yolk is still nice and runny. The sauce on the side is unique and has great unique taste.
Their special drink called Root beer is a must try as well. Unique taste of ginger beer mixed with Ram, it's awesome!!
The waiter and waitress are extremely friendly and have a lovely yet dorky sense of humour.
Highly recommended.
Food is amazing. There is always surprise in their specials. Really well designed dished with lots of new ingredients I've never tried before. I've told many my friends and highly recommend them to try.
Had a fantastic experience here
Place is buzzing
Heaps of walkers, great outdoor space which was convenient as we brought the dog
Service was friendly and quick
Coffee was hot, and very tasty
Food order was taken quickly and subsequently brought out quickly
Every flavour combined brilliantly
Can’t wait to go back!
Had a really pleasant lunch at Ora. Service is friendly and the food is delicious. See photos below. Love the ice coffee, especially on a sunny day. Great flavour.

Ora has really yummy food with lovely seating both inside and out. I got the Romesco Eggs with prosciutto. The meal was delicious - it was sort of like a weird version of an eggs Benedict so it was a nice change up to the usual. However, my one criticism is that the meal was a bit light on for the price - my friend and I were both a little hungry after.
Driving past and saw Ora Cafe. Very pleased we stopped. Great coffee choices and quick, tasty food service. Good smaller options for food as well.
Ora cafe, I have heard much about you, all good things and to my pleasant surprise, you lived up to your reputation and you were fantastic! Busy, as always but still very attentive and helpful. Your staff were great, ensuring we had everything we needed and checked in on us a food amount of times. My girlfriend and I had the noodle dish with broth and it was amazing - egg cooked to perfection! Would I come back? 100%
We ordered the spiced egg and pumpkin fritters. I think they just recently renewed their menu, so few of the older dishes are no longer served.
The eggs were nicely spiced with an Indian twist. It was definitely the highlight of the meal.
As for the pumpkin fritters, we were pretty disappointed. The fritters tasted a bit too doughy and dry. My mum didn't enjoy it much at all. Due to this, I rated this place a bit lower.
Overall, the atmosphere of the cafe was nice. It was full of people even on a very rainy and cold day.
Amazing cafe, a hidden gem - food is flavoursome, created with heart, soul and passion. Coffee is perfection. First visit was less than 2 weeks ago, and I’ve been back 3 times so far! Must try: lamb roll, beef burger, and shrooms 3 ways.
Upcoming regular... :)
P.S came this morning for the lamb roll, but was delightedly surprised that it still had 4 hours to go! I’ll be back soon to get it again ;)
This is now one of my regular and favourite brunch places. The menu is very interesting, beautifully presented and something I haven’t come across before. On my last visit I took my Mum and sister who were visiting Melbourne, and they absolutely loved it also.
During my last visit, I ordered the ‘Shrooms’ (photo attached) which is a must have for mushroom lovers like me. Oh, and coffee is great to!
Delicious warm food probably the best I’ve ever had.
We had the scrambled eggs with 4 extra. I had the sweet potato waffles with grilled pineapple. I am drooling thinking about it now. Cafe is small.
I haven’t had a chance to eat at Ora’s (yet) so this review is solely on the heavenly tasty Soy Chai Lattes I have had numerous times and also on their friendly and attentive customer service.
It’s always a highlight to my morning whenever I get to come to this place to have my serve of their sweet creamy perfect Chai’s.
Keep up the great work guys! Amazing little place!!
I like the location and the outdoor area at the front. It was charming little cafe at the intersections of the streets. I was surprised with how small the menu is. I cant remember which brekky roll I picked but it was beautifully made. The relish was soo yum and everything else is just great. Mocha was a tad bitter but other than that staff was so friendly and let us sat there for a long time. Definitely a great place to sit and chat.
Small, clean, quaint interior, front outside seating also.
Coffee, Almond Latte, double ristretto was good strength. Normal shot, would be weak for people who like a stronger coffee hit.
Poached eggs on GF bread was nice. Bircher Muesli was good.
Great little spot in Kew. A no fuss cafe that has really good scrambled eggs on sourdough. The side of mushrooms was also super tasty. The espresso was well made and full of flavour. What would be good is to see a few more options for breakfast. Either way, we'll be back.
Delicious sandwiches & great coffee. Staff were really nice & the place never felt over crowded.
Ora Kew - Cafe & Smokehouse has very nice outdoor and indoor seating areas and it even had a small kids' play area at the back. The staff were fabulous and friendly. The coffee and the food were amazing. I would definitely be back.
As a Kew local, I’ll definitely be back! Warm hospitality, prompt service and big points with me when it’s dog friendly!! It was a 22 degree day so we enjoyed the outdoor area. I had a delicious chai latte and the French toast which is from their new menu! My friend had the shroom panzanella which I’ll come back for the next time! Plenty of parking along the streets and this cafe is slightly tucked away from the main busy street which is great! Some calm to enjoy your meal and linger to chat. Loved this little gem of a cafe!
Great coffee and yummy food. A great stop south of the river and easy access from freeway! Breakfast eggs beautifully cooked make a great light breakfast. The polenta chips were golden, tasty and crisp. Very pleasant outdoor street side area or a cosy indoor cafe style area. Staff are friendly and helpful. Plenty of parking in surrounding streets.
