The food, service and ambience of this place is amazing. We went here before a night at the Comic’s lounge and it just made the night even more special to have great food served with a smile and without delays. The garlic and cheese bread in particular was the best we have ever had. Well done :)

A great dinner spot with a multitude of options – fantastic for dinner before the comedy lounge.

I stumbled upon Errols thanks to the delicious feature of Zomato, Zomato Gold. So not only did we find a great new spot to dine, but we also got to take advantage of the ‘1+1’ feature within Zomato Gold. This cut the price almost in half!

Double bonus!

We were in a bit of a rush as we had a booking at the Comedy Lounge. The staff kindly accommodated and got the dishes out quickly so we could eat and make the booking in time.

🍽The Crispy Chicken Bao was delicious! The bread was warm and soft, and the ingredients within it was fresh and crunchy.A great mixture of textures. It came with a side of crispy sweet potato fries too. An all round favourite dish!

🍽We also ordered the salad with Halloumi and Salami. This was a great pairing with the Bao, as it gave us a few greens and vegetables. All that could have made this dish better would be slightly more salad and the option to pour the dressing on ourselves.

I’m really loving finding places like this through Zomato Gold, and would definitely return to try more of the menu options.

Generous portion sizes with an explosion of taste. Down to earth but the apotheosis of modern cuisine. The lamb shanks were to die for and the carbonara was to kill for. Quaint but cultured- Perfect for a first date or a final goodbye. The aroma of pureed sweet potato filled the air with the nostalgia of my sweet childhood on the white sandy beaches of Sorrento. 10/10 would recommend.

This has become our regular when dining in North Melbourne. Went there again today and was greeted with a smile after a bad experience elsewhere. Eggs Benedict and Soy Latte were delicious. It's excellent having breakfast and reading The Age newspaper here. Highly recommended.

I have been a regular diner at Errols over the years and I have never once had a bad experience there. Their dishes are always fresh, hot and satisfying. The wait staff are always friendly and happy to help out with suggestions on trying something new that may be on the menu. The dishes are served promptly and look and taste fantastic. Errols is a great venue to have dinner at with friends before a big night in the city, to grab a coffee and something sweet in the morning or for a lunch time meeting. I highly recommend.

Went here for brunch on Saturday morning and was not dissapointed!
I ordered the eggs Benedict which were absolutely amazing! Everything was cooked perfectly and there was an added extra of pulled beefed which was tender and just so good.

The staff were great too, our waitress made sure we were well looked after, water was immediately provided for the table and the service was reasonably fast too.

Definately would recommend giving this place a go if you are in the area.

Lovely pub. Inside decor a bit confused. Went there for dinner but interior was more Cafe vibe and most people were getting take away coffees. But once the food came, we were really pleased. The mezze platter was great and very filling, probably the most tender calamari I've ever had. Our rare steaks were seasoned and cooked well. I also highly recommend the mulled wine, sweet, tasty and boozy. Great location with comedy club just across the road.

I honestly don't get the low rating. You can always find a good breakfast in this place. I've been here several times as I live in the area and it never disappoints. I specially recommend the eggs benedict and the Errol's breakfast.

Wonderful experience. From the moment me and my girlfriend arrived the service from the wait staff was excellent. We ordered a bottle of the Montepulciano D'ambruzzo wine, Prawns in a tomato sauce and a pizza to share from the chef's specials board. Every single part of the meal was fantastic and we would recommend this restaurant to anyone wanting good Italian food.

I was after takeaway till I saw the window seat! The waitress said this used to be a bank and we're sitting in the vault. I love this space. I'd love to do a photo shoot just in this corner. . We had a matcha chia smoothie, icy like a slushie, a bit light on chia but I liked it. With full cream. Also had a pair of crescent cookies. Butter cookies are simple though wonderful.

Visited for lunch. Had the lasagne, which was quite substantial and tasty. They also had a variety of foccacias. Coffee was also nice. I have been spoilt for quality of late and coming in with high expectations was probably unfortunate for this place. As a quick lunch and coffee I would happily recommend.

Deliciously filling (very good portion size)! I can't really fault the quality of food too much.

It isn't the cheapest place to go, but very reasonable prices for the quality of the food.

I rarely give a 5 star but this place was excellent and nothing to fault. The food was delicious, inventive and generous. The cold drip coffee has such depth of flavour and a sweetness, I was really impressed, it's hard to get right. My dining companion's flat white was excellent. Great big fit out we sat outside, staff were efficient and helpful. For brunch, what more could you want? We used an entertainment voucher, no worries ringing it up. Top marks.

Top 3 Paella's I have ever had. Fresh and beautifully cooked seafood. Amazing, fluffy and perfect mixture of chicken, vegetables and seafood. My partner had a beef burger and loved it. Great portions. Have half left for lunch today and cannot wait. Can't rave enough. So happy to be living near this place. And for $52 (with 2 amazing tap beers) we couldn't complain. Service was awesome too!

Went to Errols to catch up with a friend. Had a latte and some pizza. The latte was very good, the temperature just right. The pizza was also good, with the right amount of toppings and cheese. It was real ham too, not that processed stuff you usually get. My friend also had pizza and commented that it was quite nice. Staff were very accommodating and pleasant. We ate outside, the heater was on, so it was quite cosy and warm.

Went for an early-morning coffee, was very satisfied. Service was prompt and waitresses were polite. The almond milk cappuccino I ordered was beautifully presented (I wish I'd taken a photo!) and tasted fantastic - it's great to have a cafe this side of Melbourne with baristas who know the proper way to brew and froth almond milk! Other than that, the interior, while being spacious, is quite cozy; I loved being surrounded by the brick-and-wood decor!

Ok I have recently returned to North Melbourne and the gentrification hit me in the face, Errol's cafe i used to avoid because it was a Lamington's and weak coffee kind of establishment. Not any more it is hands down my favourite breakfast joint. With it's sister restaurant Agraba it offers great food with a touch of middle eastern flavour.

Great atmosphere and friendly service. Food very pleasing for the prices and coffee good. Can sometimes be a bit of a wait for food to arrive, but the jazz in the background is enjoyable and not so loud that you can't have a conversation.
Been a few times, and when weather fine it's pleasant to eat out front.

Two girlfriends and I recently visited for lunch after not wanting to wait in line at Auction Rooms. Am I glad we decided not to wait because Errol's was amazing! The staff were very accommodating, and helpful but not too helpful that we felt swamped. The menu has many items I wanted to pick, which is not normally the case so this was the first tick for me. I decided to go for one of their specials, the fritters with poached egg and crispy pancetta...it was absolutely delicious! My girlfriend had the same, and my other girlfriend had the smashed avo which she said was delish. Coffees were strong, perfect temperature and delish. North Melbourne is a pain to get to from my house but I am dying to get back to Errol's!

Many many moons ago, this place was disappointing and below average. It then went through a menu revamp and renovation. Things have improved tremendously and the crowd has been back since.
The menu is compact - with the traditional entrées, mains, pastas and pizza sections. Though limited, it's more focused and slightly more refined than the usual pub grub. We were quite impressed with the black angus scotch fillet with the bernaise sauce - done just right although I personally would prefer other sauce options if available. Spaghetti with wagyu meat balls was delicious but the lasagna definitely needed more meat sauce. Crispy skinned salmon was okay, as my mother was not particularly impressed with the lemon butter sauce. Personal taste perhaps.
The portion size was okay for the price. Nice ambience with friendly staff. Coffee was surprisingly good for a restaurant!
The breakfast menu looks interesting too. Will definitely give it a go one day!

A lovely place - great ambiance and stylish decor. I enjoyed a steak with chips and bernaise sauce (yum!) paired with nice red. They have quite an extensive wine list. My partner had a burger which was very well presented and went down a treat with a Peroni which they have on tap.

Adrian had the spaghetti marinara and liked the oil and very nice seafood and spaghetti.
Trevor also had the spaghetti marinara and thought it was a very nice dish.
I had the fish and chips and enjoyed that.
Overall very satisfied.

I used to live in this neighbourhood and Errols was one of my favourite spots not only hanging out with my loved ones, but also a good place to go solo with a book, just sit there quietly and enjoy the meal. The food and coffee is lovely. I like the atmosphere and after the renovation I like it even better. Nowadays I live in the other side of the town but I still like to come back time to time. The staff is friendly too.

Went here for dinner last Friday. Great atmosphere - we ate outside and the music (soft jazz) and the Coburg Lager (on tap), which I tried for the first time, were perfect on a warm night. Staff were very friendly. I had the Crispy Skin Salmon and it was fantastic. Good serving size and presentation.

This was our amazing breakfast when we came to Melbourne for the Royal Melbourne Show, just happen to stumble across this place and oh my god they certainly did not disappoint. We had been recommended to go The Auction Rooms by our hotel because it was walking distance, though it was yummy we wanted to try something different the next morning and only being in the next block was still in walking distance. The staff were very lovely, the food was better than The Auction Room and wish that we went there first because it was truly mouth watering, will definitely go back there again next time I am in Melbourne. YUM!!!!!!!

I've been going to this place for a long time. The coffee is great and the staff are always friendly in the morning. I've tried a few things on the new menu since the renovations (mostly salads - superfood salad, chicken & pear salad) and found it was all pretty nice so far. Will definitely be back again and see what other new things are being rolled out!

As a regular Errol's visitor I am pretty surprised to see the reviews below.  Tonight was my first trip back to the restaurant since its renovations, and the job that they have done is just outstanding.  The venue looks and feels more open and welcoming, it is well lit and the place was a buzz with happy diners, I was worried for a second that I was going to have to fight for a seat, however the staff quickly got to me, and I was sat in a timely manner.  The low playing music in the background adds to the atmosphere and the friendly staff made the night a first rate experience.

My friend and I dined in the patio area which was fitted with heaters and had a cute little herb garden which was a welcome addition to the surrounds, I ordered the Salmon, and a lemon lime bitters and she had the Carbonara accompanied by one of the bars international brews Estrella Damm.  

The drinks arrived promptly with a little wait on the food, which was to be expected with the numbers in the venue.  When the meals arrived they came together which was nice as so many other Melbourne venues fail on this front.  Missing out on the awkward good ahead and eat conversation we both tucked into our food, my salmon was cooked medium (just how I like it) and the potato's where creamy and perfect. The Carbonara was creamy and whilst struggling my friend forced herself over the finish line, because it was just that good!!

Afterwards we shared a Mars Bar Chocolate Cake from the seductive cake cabinet, and with my unrelating sweet tooth my dreams had come true.  Accompanied by teas ( again another great range to choose from) we finished up the night by being rung out by one of the new Managers Stephanie.  She was friendly and inviting, and split our bill with no arguments.  Stephanie along with our server where both professional whilst being friendly and ensuring the mood was laid back and relaxed. Tony the owner also popped by our table to check on us which was a welcome addition.

Just a short walk from the city, this is the easy answer weather you are a North Melbourne or City Resident.
