Love the concept and interior styling at Mercedes Me. Having a luxury Mercedes in the middle of a cafe is pretty innovative and cool how the car changes quite often also.
I really like the decor and unique design of Mercedes Me. For me that's what makes it, however the lunch menu is a little limited and could do with more options. I had the Chicken Katsu burger which was great. The chicken was nice and juicy and the sauce in the burger was very tasty.
Overall, there isn't a wide selection to choose from so don't expect anything overly unique in terms of food. But I'd definitely say it's worth a visit if you're in the area!
Love the modern feel to this place. St Ali coffee at the top, delicious food on the ground floor. Breakfast is highly recommended! I have been here for a couple of private events too - again the service and food was impeccable.
Really interesting concept of having a luxury car right in the middle of a commercial building haha.
Ordered:
🍳 Eggs Benz-edict: Thick cut streaky bacon, milk toast, smoked pepper hollandaise sauce ($20.50)
+ 🐟 smoked salmon ($4.00)
Review:
The eggs benny was quite delicious. The kale was a welcome surprise, and a mouthful and the milk toast was absolutely awesome and thick.
Milk toast isn't common - so having a light fluffy texture with the heaviness of the benny and the earthy bacon made it really exhilarating.
Service was great, and they allowed for split billing (for small tables). Mercedes me is great if you're in the area, with yummy food and great high quality interior, but not something worth travelling for.
Five stars for the food
I had the barramundi and almost licked the plate clean. Perfect portion size, well cooked, great flavours and super fresh and all presented really well!!
Five stars for the service
All the staff were lovely and super helpful with anything we asked for
Five stars for style
The design and styling is incredible
Highly recommend
I've been to Mercedes me before, but never to eat. On both visits, I was struck by the beautiful space, which features an upstairs event area, tiered dining booths and an expansive lower dining/bar section. A rotating range of cars are on display with huge screens sitting behind it. Now, let's get to the menu. It's relatively small but varied with lots of veg-friendly options. For some reason, I was more drawn to the lunch than to dinner, opting for the eggplant plus a side of haloumi. The eggplant was tender and sweet and topped with plenty of greens to counteract that. It comes with fluffy pita. Once I added the haloumi, I think I had a perfect meal. However, if eating the dish alone I think I would have needed a swipe of sauce or spread (perhaps hummus of some sort) to moisten the pita. Other positives include the top-notch coffee and professional but down to earth wait staff.
I frequently come here for business meetings and lunches (not too noisy for formal catch-ups). Great coffee and excellent ambience. Staff is friendly and attentive.
I’m not a car person and I can’t help checking in weekly to see what the updates Mercedes is. The cafe is beautiful and modern. The food is super tasty and the staff friendly and efficient. One of my fave CBD cafes
Went there with my friends to have brunch, didn’t expect anything except great coffee from St Ali, ordered G Burger, Korean Fried Chicken and Salted Caramel pancake it came to our surprise that all the food tasted great!! Delicious, even the fries tasted good. Will absolutely comeback and try other food.

Came here for a quick coffee catch up and we thought the ambience and restaurant set up was superb. You can never go wrong with st ali coffee - I had a mocha and my Friend had a strong latte. It was very delicious, and the bean flavours really came out for the strong latte. Can’t comment on the food - will be back to try!
Pros:
♤ cool venue with awesome cars as decoration.
♤ delicious Korean fried chicken came with a Belgium waffle base, a carrot salad and tasty pour over sauce.
♤ got a complimentary drink, due to an order being forgotten several times.
Cons:
♧ several orders got forgotten multiple times.
Rating: 4.3
Excellent collaboration between Mercedes & St Ali! Great ambience and style with great coffee and food. Good place for meetings - the ‘pods’ are ideal for that private business meeting or inner city catch up, however, be warned - they are in high demand! 😂
I have been here a few times, upstairs has some nice co working space, however the WiFi didn't really work for me at the time. Food from St Ali kitchen is always nice, staff is friendly, it's recommended for business meetings and lunches.
We came here for a nice birthday lunch. We were pleased to see a fantastic 300SL to admire as we ate. I enjoyed the tasty corn fritters, with a ginger tea to drink. Service was really charming, I’d go back.
The waitress spilled water on our table and my lap, but what can you do. Good food and coffee, reasonably priced.
Great venue. Large and comfortable space.
Even better breakfast adventure.
And amazing St Ali coffee gentle reminder of cool while surrounded by mercedes beautifulness...
Five stars cafe, reasonable price , worth a try. It would be nice if they have more selections of pastries for people love to have afternoon tea
Really wonderful light filled space. Good coffee and tea, great for meetings, or kick back upstairs with a book on the comfy sofas. Good menu selection and friendly staff. Good wifi (rare in Melbourne cafes) and super comfortable stools...important, honest! Oh and they always have cool cars!
Typical Melbourne style cafe only that you are surrounded by Mercedes related stuff. If you are petrol head or love the brand, it's a nice place to be.
