Linnie Eats All The Food

Toro Cafe. An unassuming cafe in Mount Waverly. Frequent by local residence and those that work in the area (just like us!). We stumbled on this cafe when the restaurant we wanted to wasn’t open. We walked into Toro Cafe and boy oh boy it was such a quaint cafe. It was cosy AND the staff were super duper friendly.
Been working in the area for a few months and always walk past this place... and I mean that literally walk straight past and never stop. I never knew why I did, if it was the menu that didn’t interest me or just preferred to stick to the usual place, but one sunny day I decided to try it out!
And I am so glad I did!
I ordered the fried rice with the pork chops and it was wonderfully tasty, presented well and in good time considering how busy they were! Not only that the price was a steal, most other places could easily charge the $18 mark OR more... but they are very reasonably price.
I ordered a coffee also which was nice too, and the loyalty card will keep me coming back as most cafes here don’t give that option
So if you’re looking for a nice place to eat, for a good price in Mount, this is definitely worth stopping by!

Walked pass this bright cafe figured to give it a go. We are happy to discover a hidden gem in the local suburb.
.
I ordered the OMELETTE GPO ($13.5) 🍳 It was well cooked, filled with mushrooms, tomatoes, marinated chicken, shallots, coriander on sourdough. I enjoyed it :)
.
Sis got the EGGS NEMO ($15) 🥚🐠, the sugar cane prawns were pretty interesting, with hollandaise over the smoked salmon, poached eggs and sautéed asparagus. That’s what made it an impressive dish!😋
.
My parents had the SLOW COOKED PULLED PORK BENEDICT ($14.5), I was pretty taken with it. full of flavorIt was flavoursome and combined really well with the hollandaise sauce and the fresh green apple slaw added a little moisture to it. Next time I would probably consider ordering it myself.
.
I would love to come back again as the menu was decently priced, generously sized and service was prompt. Coffee was lovely too ☕️💖
Great ambience with friendly staffs. Highly recommend visiting. Menu is perfect for breakfast and lunch with some special asian twist - serving from burgers to 'heo quay' (caramelized pork belly).
I was looking for a cafe for brunch and stopped when I saw this bright, clean, spacious looking place.
I ordered the P&E (caramelised pork, poached eggs with hollandaise, pear on toast), mocha and a babycino. The dish was beautifully plated. The pork was a little dry but I didn't mind. I would have liked a bit more chocolate in the mocha but it was nice anyhow. I was impressed with the size of the babycino, it was huge!
Service is very friendly. I'll definitely be back to try other things on menu.
Lovely little bright cafe in the Hamilton place shops, with pleasant service and tasty food. We shared a noodle salad and a Porky burger, both of which were delicious and I’d get again.
I have been to nearly every coffee shop or cafe in the area and nothing beats Toro. The staff is amazing, the coffee and food are great and tasty. The shop itself is very cool and modern. I love it there, I go every day to get my coffee and staff have remembered my name and provided wonderful service. If you are in the area go to toro !!!!!!!!
We've been to all the cafes in Mt Waverley and although this shopping strip has some good ones, Toro cafe is our favourite.
Family friendly, prompt and attentive service. They serve great coffee.
I love coming here for my amazing coffees!! The staff are always very happy and friendly. Loving the look of the new renovation too. Can’t wait to try the food.
Have only tried their drinks here. I bought myself a Matcha latte to drink while catching up with a friend (soz for poor picture quality).
Barista was super nice and the matcha was so yummy 😍 Would recommend.
Decided to try Toro today for my morning coffee. The barista who served me and made my coffee was very friendly! The coffee itself was pretty good too. They have some nice looking baguettes and slices for sale
Edit: Got a baguette from here today for lunch and it was quite nice. Definitely give Toro a try if you're in the area.
No one welcomes you in, and yet there is a welcoming vibe in this cafe. When we visited for brekky, the cafe was full. It seems that there are many regulars, which most likely means that the cafe is good.
We ordered a brekky burger, a chicken Schnitzel burger, a fried egg on toast, coffees and hot chocolate. Burgers were good. To me the fries (chips) tasted better than what you find in MacDonald's.
The staff are nice and quick.
Will be back for other food.
We tried chicken pho, sweet and sour fish and stick spy tofu. While fish and pho were excellent. Tofu was okay. Little on dry side and less seasoning. But the host is warm and helpful. We enjoyed our afternoon here
Ever since i moved here this cafe has been hands down the best I’ve ever been too. Amazing staff and my coffee always tastes fantastic! Almost there every day and they deserve the highest of ratings.
Cheers Toro Cafe :)
Lovely cafe of light brunch or food, so welcoming vibe and beautiful and healthy food.
Super affordable, with two dining out, we both got a main and a drink and it was around 30 AUD. Food is hearty. Fries are fresh and salted to perfection. Pho broth is clear and tasty.
Can’t believe how inexpensive this cafe is compared to other cafes in Melbs! The kicker, you don’t compromise flavour or taste when you order here. They made my soft poached eggs perfectly and even with add-ons you still come in under $20 AUD. Definitely will be coming back!
