Amazing food and great service ,highly recommended this restaurant!!
Was here one Sunday for brunch with my hubby. I must say the location is what I really loved. The place was not too busy for a Sunday early afternoon and the buzz started shortly after.
Food was great. Loved the presentation. Friendly staff!
Thumbs up for the restaurant. Will be visiting soon.
Great food and great service! I would highly recommend for anyone looking for brunch in the city - especially the smashed avocado with poached egg and crispy bacon
After an incredible meal at Miznon we decided to share crepes at Triim for dessert
They were delicious! Well worth the calories
We also had exceptional service
Great food, great service, great cocktails and how can you beat the location! Very enjoyable and relaxing place with a lovely ambiance. Will definitely be back.
Consistently a go to for breakfast. Food is fast, tasty and fresh. Always great, friendly service! Smashed avo, eggs Benedict and sweet potato stack are lovely
This place definitely is not the busiest one on hardware lane but if you decide to give it a go, it won't let you down. I loved the basil pesto gnocchi, it's So good! I recommend this restaurant!
After walking up and down Hardware Lane last night and being harassed by the other restaurants to come in, we decided to eat here for dinner and were welcomed by the boss/manager who went through the menu with us! We got a table really quickly & our waiter was so helpful. The food came out pretty quick and it was delicious! We will definitely be back! Thanks guys :)
Finally, we found our food muse in Melbourne. A must visit place is the hardware lane. Lined with food and drink places with taste buds provoking food, I was surprised by the vegetarian option in this place. Every dish is tailored and customised by the restaurant. Very friendly staff and beautiful ambiance to sit through coffee, all day breakfast and lunch until closing. The taste is very boutique.... Have to visit to find out more.
Coming from out of the area for a little trip stopped by this place by accident.
Found the people here to be really friendly, the food was amazing, and the coffee was brilliant.
Would definitely recommend this to anyone who is a local or here for a trip.
We out for dinner on a Friday night to Triim. Entree was calamari, which was tasty but a little tough. We both had the vegetarian lasagne for main and loved it! Portion was perfect amount too. The cocktails we ordered were the espresso Martini (8/10) and the mojito (4/10). The staff were very lovely. The decor of the place needs a bit more improvement, but would definately come again for a casual dinner.
On this the fourth day of my Melbourne CBD Food adventure, I decided to get an early start and hit up Hardware Lane for a nice, filling breakfast. Sasha over at Triim was more than happy to accommodate me and set me up with a table inside. After a bit of exploration and taking some shots of the place with my camera I tucked in to a nice cappuccino served with an eggs Benedict. As Sasha explained all their ingredients are made fresh unlike some places which make their Hollandaise sauce from a powder.
The eggs were cooked to perfection, yolks nice and runny, the sauce tasted great and I finished it all off by mopping up the yolk and sauce with the muffins. Went down nicely and was good value. Definitely recommend this to others for a quick brekkie fix.
The owner Sasch is super friendly. I love his compliment about my hometown. Lovely front staff. Coffee was good, nice locations. Will come back!
Very average cafe. The service was good, staff were friendly, but overall the taste of the food was pretty average, just normal breakfast you can get at other places.
They served the wrong coffee to our table which is not really a big deal but I wanted to say, the latte art was really bad. I know it takes practice, I've done them myself, but better not try to have them if you're serving them in mugs. Not very pleasant looking.
I would come back if I were nearby and want to have some cafe food.
Most restaurants on Hardware Lane have a staff member outside trying to convince you to come in, which can get very uncomfortable easily. The manager of Triim outside simply explained that both the breakfast and lunch menus were available and what the specials were in a very straightforward, no bull manner. The big breakfast wasn't great, but their paninis were amazing and good value for money. The risotto verde was also delicious. Coffee was a little too acidic. Very professional and speedy service.
It's really nice ambience for dinning and taking a break in busy Melbourne centre with a super friendly service. Scrumptious seafood ,like scallops , prawns and mussels, were prepared in Risotto Pescatora. Creamy and delicious combination of the sauce and Risotto Scampi that we can't put down our spoon. Also, super refined mozzarella cheese was added to make the whole dishes with another pair of wings. If you love cheesy stuff, "no stop" is allowed during the addition of cheese.
Was pleasantly surprised by the normality in the menu, service was excellent and our order was prompt. Coffee was nice and food was simple and yummy. Highly recommend to anyone who wants a no fuss breakfast and wants to walk out happy.
Thanks heaps Triim.
Lovely avo smash!! Saved the experience. Juice and coffee quite ordinary. Staff weren't fantastic and forgot the side of bacon.
Had great accommodating and friendly staff that made everyone feel happy to stay for a couple of hours. When the family is back we probably will seek it out again. The food good but was slightly disappointed when the parma didn't come with chips
fast service, friendly staff, the corn and zucchini salad and agnolotti aroura with the eggplants inside was great. we went for lunch and we will go back again.
Spectacular service Absolutely amazing food, always feel like a VIP my girls refuse to have breaky anywhere else.we will always be a return customer, they past few times we have turned up with 10-20 people kids and adults we are always made to feel welcome and service above and beyond quality food and beverages.
Friendly staff, lovely location. Delicious hot chocolates! :) A gorgeous way to spend the morning, watching people walk past on the street. Be sure to check in if you're in the area!
My friends and I had been wandering about Melbourne, and we ducked into this lovely café, Triim, which was down a beautiful laneway right in the CBD. It was instantly likeable, with a lovely warm scent that dispersed the chill outside. The owner was kind and accommodating, seating us right by the heater. The hot chocolate we had was beautiful and it is well worth a visit.
We Walked in while it was raining and met the owner, he sat us right near the heater, & was very hospitable and kind. Apart from wonderful staff, they make a beautiful hot chocolate. Which is delicious with a warm vibrant taste. The menu also is interesting and I would definitely go back there.
Love their big breakfast!! So stuffed after finishing my meal and the staff are very friendly too. Good location, great place. What else can you ask for?
Nothing bad to say about this place! Myself and two of my girlfriends came to Melbourne for a trip from NZ and decided to go anywhere for dinner that looked Inviting. We were excited about the customer service that was provided and we were made to feel very welcome! We have been back two times since (in two days) and are going back for breakfast tomorrow. Great guys very friendly :-)
Great breakfast & lunch. Came in for breakfast and had the benedict & fresh juice, it was very good & you can tell that the hollandaise sauce was homemade.
The service was friendly, fast & efficient that I came back for lunch had the homemade gnocchi pesto; very, very good it was light & the pesto just went well with the dumplings.
Tick: service & food
Really Good. Loved the Smashed avocado with feta, the Bircher muesli & the bacon, eggs & toast special (with my choice of coffee, tea or juice for $9!). Busy but received great service. Thanks
Very good. Really enjoyed our lunch & dessert. Attentive & very friendly service.
Great find in Hardware Ln. Found this café last week and spent the next 4 mornings here for breakfast.
First day we had their breakfast specials which were so good and cheap for example bacon, eggs, toast and a latte for $9!!! We also tried the smashed avocado with added poached egg and smoked salmon, amazing. Great coffee and friendly service. We'll be back.
We stumbled across this place on search for a cafe during a very busy Saturday morning. The manager was very friendly and food was great at a very reasonable price. We enjoyed it that much we came back the next day to which again we were greeted by the friendly manager and staff whom even remembered us from the day before .
We stopped in for a late night dessert and drinks. The staff were lovely, cocktails were tasty and the desserts were lovely. Glad we stumbled upon Triim.
Really good value for breakfast! Considering it was a very busy place (Anzac Day) the food & drink came out in reasonable time. Staff are friendly & efficient. I would recommend & will return.
Best carbonara I've ever had an great wine!! Would recommend this place to anyone looking for a quiet laid back spot with nice non overbearing staff :)
Came here for lunch and really had a great meal & my daughter ended up having breakfast (bacon, eggs, toast & sautéed spinach) as they offer all day breakfast. The 2 lamb shanks was tender & was served on mash; that was very good. My daughter could not complain about her breakfast, the eggs were cooked the way she wanted them & the spinach was also nice. If you're going to complain about breakfast, you should stay home & cook it yourself. Overall, our experience here & hardware Lane was enjoyable.
Great breakfast, nice location & really friendly staff.
Frenchtoast & Benedict were fantastic but the coffee was very good.
Quick service. Veal & sage tortellini was so creamy but not sickening & really enjoyed the Italian side salad. My work colleague had the Greek salad with grilled chicken which was also good because it was a side salad he also ordered a bruschetta. We will be coming back to try the gnocchi & seafood linguini that we saw on the next table to us.
The food was great! Very friendly staff and a quiet comfortable atmosphere... Would definitely eat here again! :)
I had a really lovely breakfast (although it was actually lunchtime by the time we got there) at Triim with my boyfriend. The staff were friendly but not pushy, our orders were taken promptly and our food arrived quickly. We sat outside under the heater and it was lovely - a sunny day, and we could do some people-watching as well. I ate the pancakes with maple syrup, strawberries and ice cream, and it was just what I felt like, and none of it tasted fake, which pancakes sometimes can. My boyfriend had the big breakfast, and he also enjoyed his meal. Although this place wasn't anything out of the ordinary, we had a nice time and some good food.
Such a great venue if you want friendly service and great food and coffee. Thought I'd take a chance during lunch it was busy but worth it, would definitely come back again and again. Highly recommend this place to anyone......
Lovely place, friendly staff, good food, great atmosphere
Been here twice and liked both times. They have $10 cocktail special on Friday and Sat night with Jazz band playing which is quite nice.
VERY GOOD LUNCH & SERVICE. What a great traditional fettuccine carbonara & pasta special which was the penne with avocado and chicken. We had a our 5month old baby with us so we were a little apprehensive dining out but the staff were very helpful, thoroughly enjoyed the experience.
As for the service, contrary to the previous review we had a friendly waitress and the rest acknowledge us before and after we dined at the establishment.
We'll be back to try the breakfast menu.
I went there with my near about 10 friends,, we all loved the food n service was so quick,,, food is so good,,triim we r Coming back soon
I Recon this is the one of the best restaurants in melbourne,,
Loving. Nice place for breakfast I had French toast that was amazing . Serves was quick as well
I love triim really nice place and great staff... I love food
Big breakfast was fantastic and Florentine yummy poached egg super perfect I just love it...
Loved the food, service & location. Really enjoyed the whole grilled baby snappers (*2) with salad, pasta special, grilled chilli calamari and the risotto zucca (recommend). They were about to close but were happy to accommodate us. Quick service, good coffees & great food.
I had breakfast recently and lunch service is quick and friendly staff and my favourite lamb shank it's really tasty and girlfriend enjoy chicken parma I recommend best place in CBD
Pleasantly surprise. We came across Triim last Saturday and the place was packed but we thought we'd take a chance (willing to wait) and have breaskfast there. Even though the place was very busy, we were acknowledged and served quickly. Staff were very attentive, i had the big breakfast and it was BIG & hit the spot, my friends had the eggs benedict & french toast (both yummy).
Turned up for a late breakfast. Had a cappucino & hot choc which were both fantastic & ordered 2 big breakfasts. The place was quite busy so was expecting to wait a while for the food but it came out quickly. Great portion size & everything was good. Only quarm was i asked for REALLY toasted bread which came out white, however the polite & friendly staff fixed it without hesitation, that's what i like to see. Would definitely go back, good value for money.
Delicious big breaky and salmon eggs benni !
Great BIG breakfast & coffee; good service. We'll be coming back again next time we're in Melbourne.
Had breakfast there two days in a row and found the breakfast menu inexpensive and nicely done. Staff were attentive and helpful and we sat back and enjoyed the urban atmosphere. Can only think some other reviewers are over fussy.
Had breakfast twice here in the last week. Great coffee & eggs benefict, the staff are really lovely.
Great place, very accommodating staff were friendly & efficient. We really enjoyed their gluten free garlic bread I had their homemade gnocchi pesto (but with bolognese sauce) which was fantastic & my partner had the penne which had just the perfect amount of chili. Overall, excellent & looking forward to next time. Give it a go.
Came for dinner. Nice non pushy waiter out front. Was told we could amend the menu but once seated n ordered was denied by chef. Would come back for drinks tho. Lovely female waitress.
Great coffee & relaxed spot to sit back & enjoy the sights & sounfs of Hardware Lane
Beautiful little restaurant with all the ambience needed. Service by the young lad was great. Barramundi was to die for cooked to perfection. The sauce on the salad should be bottled. Wife had the fettuccini and thoroughly enjoyed it. $10 espresso martini topped off the meal. Totally recommend giving this place a go.
Great lunch. Fish with garlic mash. Veal with risotto. Service and outdoor atmosphere both first class. Could become our favourite Hardware Lane place.
Such a good coffee place around the area. I had a nice time for a strong Segafredo coffee, which I sipped it at the outdoor area in a beautiful Melbourne weather.
Although it has an indoor dining space, but having it outside felt like being in a European country. We can view poeple chatting and eating casually alongside the lane. Recommended for a strong coffee addict.
Great place to stop for a drink, the $10 Cocktails went down an absolute treat! The Host and Staff were super friendly.
Had already eaten elsewhere, but definitely looking at going back to eat, the Pasta dishes looked delicious.
Definitely stop by, relax, eat and drink.
Good service, fresh food
Nice Cafe on busy Hardware Lane that offers a good range of pasta, salads or even just for a quick coffee.
Best place to eat in Melbourne, fantastic service fast and friendly, great coffee, food is amazing
We stoped here for Brekkie. Great coffee and food. Had the Salmon Benedict.
