Fress is a charming cafe frequented by the local community. You can order from the menu or a delicious selection of sandwiches, salads, tarts and other treats from the cabinet. I particularly like the daily specials. My current fave is the Healthy Goat. Toast with a generous serve of avo, fried mushrooms, rocket and feta topped with a perfectly poached egg, dressed with balsamic glaze and tahini. Coffees and fresh juices are great. Muffins made fresh every day.

Perfect type of cafe - huge variety of lovely foods, good coffee, exceptional service and gorgeous crockery.
Highly recommended. Great food and friendly service. We bring our kids here regularly, love the shakshuka! If with kids they have a great kids menu.
The variety of salads are excellent. My favourite is the smashed avo on grain toast and my wife's friend likes the cauliflower or pumpkin tarts. I like the mixture of salads and the ability to have a few on one plate. It is a good also option for take away food. I would suggest a worthy inclusion for a non fancy lunch.
The cafe is in a nice spot.
One of the best Shakshuka I've ever tried, great coffee, nice ambience and good service.ย
What else can you ask for?
Will be back, for sure.
After a few visits this became one of our favorite breakfast places. Great service, and food quality of a fine dining restaurant. Highly recommend cosy court yard.
Very nice cafe with friendly staff.
Ordered two coffees and two soups. The coffees were well made, perfect temperature. The soups were pretty good as well! Very good for a midweek no stress lunch.
Have eaten at Fress before but never reviewed. My lunch was yummy! Asian chicken patty with a side of hokien noodle chicken salad. Coffee was lovely.
Miss 8 had challah french toast with icecream. We ordered her a mango smoothy but it only tasted of orange, the only negative of our visit. We will be back.
The best smashed avo for miles. Always keep coming back to this place for the reliable good food and good coffee, and they always have the newspaper handy.
One of the best local cafes in Caulfield! Great food, always fresh and cooked daily! I have my coffee every morning, always there , ready and hot, the stuff is sooo friendly and nice, and to top it off, the best shakshuka I've had!!!!!๐๐๐๐๐๐
I wish this was my local cafe. We loved it here. Itโs a plain and minimalist set up inside, and frankly I found that so refreshing. We adored our dishes. I had the porridge which is a work of art. It looks magnificent and it tastes sublime. Itโs a terrific size here. My family members really loved their dishes too, including the eggs benedict and the chicken and avocado focaccia. To top everything off, we had gorgeous friendly service which added to the delightful experience.
They're so nice and friendly here and the coffee is consistently great. We walk a bit further than our local now, as we enjoy the service so much. Food speaks for itself too.

Good breakfast, had Fress Mushrooms on toast, a good poached egg on sourdough. Trimmings were nice as were the coffee serves.
This cafe is fantastic. I tried the salad on display and it was beautiful.
Highly recommended to try their main menu and salad on the side. Youโll be pleased ๐
Delicious, fresh and friendly. Very cozy neighborhood cafe serving tasty salads and good coffee. Consistently good food and service.
Hands down the best shakshuka in Melbourne. The smashed avo is also second to none. Delicious food and great, friendly vibes.
Amazing food and great service. The host is so lovely and friendly. Totally a local gem.
Delicious food and good vegan options! I have the smashed avo and a chai latte and was very pleased!
