Alex and I had a quick brunch this morning. The food was delicious. Every mouthful was flavoursome and excellent value for money. The staff were very attentive checking whether the young Beetle was more a white bread type of guy or whether he was into grains. Couldn't have asked for more. Have eaten here before and will definitely eat here again
Great place run by fab people excluding two. Do not understand how a gem of a place like this can possibly fail. I suppose that depends on your partners, shame the staff and atmosphere where superb, a place to relax unwind and enjoy your own or friends company. I have given it a five star because it deserves the praise.
Old school charm with classic 80s pop background music. Enjoyed the atmosphere and the egg floretine was a winner.
120+ gins on offer. Great service and atmosphere.. food is simple but delicious.
Great atmosphere, awesome staff and the best Aussie Gins, try the Gins from Hurdle Creek Still
Me and a mate had heard about this place as we work nearby. Came in and were very impressed at the range of gins available and the knowledge of the staff for the products they serve.
It's a small niche alcove with a very chilled out atmosphere, a great place to hangout and unwind.
Although I haven't tried the food here, I think that majority of people coming here are here for the gin.
I think for some of those people commenting the food is a bit expensive, it's not a cafe and it's not trying to be. It's not a brunch spot, it's a gin bar that also serves food. And I think for that I can't fault them. Would highly recommend a visit if you are in the area
I love the sustainability ethos of Tonic Lane, including the double loyalty stamps when you bring your own cup. if you don't have your own keep cup there is a supply of porcelain cups to take away and return the next day. And if you must have a disposable cup, even they are recyclable. The vast majority of the day time customers are long-time loyal regulars, and Lain and her staff know us all by name. There is even a community library for anyone to use. The coffee is great and the food is amazing. A lot of the food is made on-site, which is pretty impressive for such a small establishment. And best of all Lain will always go the extra mile to suit my special dietary requirements. Thanks Lain, Andy and Serge!
Great choice of Australian gins. Small selection of beers. And food to go with it.
Amazing breakfast, brunch, evening snacks AND gin to boot! This cafe does it all, perfect for a night out and breakfast the morning after ;) I can't recommend this place highly enough. Very friendly staff and great atmosphere. Thanks Laine for making it worth the trip every time!
