Classic brunch done right!

The Ormond Provedore delivered not only a great meal but I would like to go out of my way to compliment the great service! I truly felt like a valued customer in this cafe. Also to note, the chai tea is a veryyy generous serve, and value for money.

As for the food, we had the magic mushroom omelette and the shak shuka. My only room for improvement would be the portion sizes were a tad small. However, the meals were delicious, the standout was the bread!! Truly divine and elevated the dish to my 5 stars!

I would definitely come back and try some more of this menu!

Normal portion, it’s a bit expensive but the menu is a bit different compare to the other cafe. The French toast was great and will go back there again

Had the muesli and caramel latte from this place on uber eats. Was absolutely fantastic. Possibly the best muesli I have ever had. Coffee was also good!

"You down with T.O.P? Yeah you know me"

The Dear Luncher has only stopped in at T.O.P three times since moving to this part of the world. These visits should be more frequent as it is a ripper of a place. Breakfast is tremendous, but recently lunch was also experienced. A crunchy, fragrant Thai beef salad. There are indeed days when The Dear Luncher doesn't eat things that are fried. This café has a lot going for it. Eclectic menu, great service and Boatrocker pale ale.

Fabulous cafe with friendly, efficient staff and delicious food. We had the lunch menu Sticky Korean Beef Tacos and the Asian Chicken burger supplied gluten free both were contemporary and very tasty dishes. Coffee is good and strong and the selection of handmade cakes and biscuits delish. Highly recommend this one.

I have come here a number of times as they serve great coffee and the service is really friendly. The food is a little bit and miss unfortunately, although it is better more often than not. A nice and relaxed vibe and not to chaotic which is good.

Baked eggs are usually difficult to get right. The entire dish can end up with an undifferentiated flavour. And the yolks are often baked solid and tasteless.

The baked eggs here were tender and tasty.

Great service too.

Stopped by one day for a bite. Had the french toast and the smashed avo. Along with a pretty nice shake. Don't be fooled these guys have a good courtyard out back!! Frenchie was great and the avo was good. For some likings the bread was a little hard.

Food and service was pretty good. Food had plenty of flavour and was prepared well, the coffee was ok, I have long blacks so can usually taste when the grind is slightly off, I think the grind on this occasion was a little too course which made the water run too fast and made the taste slightly bitter, this also gave the crema a whiter/yellower appearance as a posed to a bold orange/gold appearance. Food and service will bring me back.

Lovely surprise. We were actually headed somewhere else but was drawn into this warm & friendly place.
Coffee was good, so was the hot chocolate.
We ordered their Big breakfast to share. They were so sweet to bring out 2 plates of food, already nicely divided. Love the OP Pork Benedict, the pulled pork was so yum!
Overall quality food & excellent friendly service!

I've had breakfast here a few times. The kitchen is very creative and come up with some amazing specials. The reason I don't come here often is because of their coffee which sucks big time. Pretty awful coffee. Service is average. Food is great.

All I want to say is that the Asian chicken burger that they do for lunch is one of the best burgers I've ever had, anywhere in the world. That chook is out of this world!
If you are a burger fiend then you need to check this bad boy off your list!

Food is good, sometimes the eggs are overcooked which is a shame. The back room is great for kids & families. So it's an easy stop over when hungry. I recommend lunch not breakfast, the salads are really good

FINALLY FOUND IT!! I've nev.... FINALLY FOUND IT!!
I've never been compelled to write about cafés, after being a long time urbanspooner, but this place just has something, unlike the others.
I've tried all those "hottest" new places in town, and visited shops regularly on "Melbournes top breakfast" lists, but this secret gem gets me to keep coming back for more.
It's key, consistency.
Coffees, never a complaint. Neighbouring coffee stores regularly watch patrons walk by.
Eggs, like you've never had before. Certainly the specialty. The O P sends the competitions poached eggs packing, with an array of flavours, on an ever changing menu.
Beans, packing a punch, but always a standout.
This post may not be full of fancy words, like other reviews, but if you want a cafe that honesty believes in a fresh wholesome approach to fantastic food, then this this is the place for you.
O P, you rock!!

Love this little nook. We live just one suburb over in Bentleigh and the area is screaming for more places like this.

The space out the back is simple but offers a feeling of breakfast in the sunshine without the dishes. It also tends to be children free out the back which is great on a Sunday morning. The staff are lovely and both chai teas are great.

Try the eggs on dukah with rocket.

The food was very flavorful and decent size. The service was quick and staff was very friendly.

Even though I am not a big coffee/tea drinker since I had hot chocolate, my wife and I recommended their hot beverages to be quite good - just about right to not be too sweet nor too lite.

Becoming one of my favs. I have been here a no. of times. They have a great array of little treats in counter window. The chef manages to cook the eggs perfectly each & every time, the coffee could be better however the service from the girl who is behind the coffee machine is very friendly and accommodating!
It can get busy on weekends but def. worth visiting!

Lovely suburban cafe. I am new to the area and was delighted to discover this little gem of a cafe. I ordered smashed avocado with goats cheese and poached egg with smoked salmon on the side. It was delicious and flavour some and, I almost forgot-the coffee was lovely with beautiful silky milk. It has a lovely courtyard out the back that compliments the cosy feel to the indoor areas.
The staff were friendly and professional. I can't recommend the Ormond Provedore highly enough.

Almost dont want to write this review to keep this place a secret. ;) Great way to relax over brunch on a lazy Sunday. Food was great - ordered the middle eatern eggs which was a brilliant tweak to traditional eggs on toast. Coffee great. And the service was friendly and outstanding - waitress brought more water even after we'd finished eating. All the little details make this place a gem.

Hidden gem. This place is great! My favourite is the parmy eggs :) Heard about it from friends, as it's not really obvious from the street that there is a cafe there! Can be a bit cold if you want to sit outside as there are no heaters.

A hidden gem. Located on a stretch of North Road where you wouldn't expect to find such a great restaurant/cafe, Ormond Providore is one of the best cafes in the area.

I have been there twice -- once for breakfast and once for lunch -- so have been able to sample a few items from their menu.

For breakfast, I had the corn fritters (which may have been a special). They were decent, but to be honest a bit on the floury/bready side. My wife had a vegetarian big breakfast which looked nice and she approved.

For lunch, I had the Thai beef salad which was extremely well balanced and a very satisfying dish. It had a few slices of medium/rare beef nestled amongst mixed greens, cashews and crispy noodles which added a great textural contrast.

They have a nice little courtyard out the back which is great for warmer days. Service is also very friendly.

Highly recommended.

It was a rather busy morning compared to the few times I walked past. This probably explained why I wasn’t getting any service for the initial 8 minutes. Nevertheless, I’m culturally inclined to think a busy place is a good place. My soy latte was good and the brekky brioche was delicious (picture didn’t do it justice). I’ll probably come again to try other food on the lunch menu, the bbq beef burger sounds interesting.

I order from here once a week, and the bacon is always perfectly crispy, the mushrooms are amazing and the poached eggs on toast plus a freshly squeezed juice = heaven! 🤤👍 Keep doing what you're doing! Great value for perfectly cooked breakfast when im too lazy to do it myself! Many thanks to your team for the consistency!
