This is a great little cafe in Parkdale. Cosy, inviting and presented well. Service was great and knowledgable too. Nice decor.

We came here with a voucher. We got the Benedict and the Calamari. My Benedict was delicious, loved the use of the wholemeal crumpet instead of the bread, very generous lathering of hollandaise, eggs and bacon perfect and the green leafy bits (watercress?) complemented it well. The Calamari was great too I heard, fresh, light and flavoursome.

Prices were fair for a cafe and the servings although a little quaint, were enough to keep us going at brunch. Menu range could be lengthened a bit but I guess they may have specials during the week (they've a Parma night but not sure when)

Definitely will be returning in the future.

Our favourite local when at our Mordy home base - the quality of food and service is up there with our St Kilda favourites and is so relaxed and welcoming. 2nd wine magically appears with a simple nod! Gnocchi and meatballs are super delicious. Kid friendly too with kids menu, spiders and colouring in placemats. We are lucky to have this gem so close - also perfect for breakfasts, take away coffee and fresh baked scones and muffins.

Quite simply, one of the best cafes in the area. I don't think I've ever had a bad coffee from CoW. Staff is super friendly and the ambiance and setting inside is really chill. All their small takeaway items are delicious and their scones with jam and cream were amazing.

After speaking to one of the lovely waitresses I will definitely be coming in on parma night. I've also had a few locals recommend it.

My partner and I have been coming to COW regularly for their Parma nights. $15 for a Parma and drink. Good value for money and always delicious. Their special Parma flavours are often interesting and different. Service is always excellent. Lisa has always taken great care of us. Can't wait till we see a Parma special with pineapple on it!

Consistently great food and service.  Cafe on Warren (COW) is my favorite local cafe. Best Breakfast menu in Mordialloc/Parkdale.  Recommend the Breakfast Burrito, Baked Eggs and COW breakfast.

I have been to this nice cafe a few times. Always like it. The coffee, snacks, coloring page for kids...
Last Saturday, we went there with a full house. A girl took our order, but forgot to put through. After a reminder, the food came, as nice as always. We had a great time.
When I went to get the bill, I was expecting that the drinks would be waived as a gesture of being sorry. But the whole meal was waived. It's not about the money. Just very impressed with the effort from them to keep the customers happy.

Came here for dinner at 5.20, a bit early but they let me choose the menu while waiting. 5 stars hospitality, they take their time to explain almost every food they serve and will explain more if you ask (i didnt expect to find this in a cafe in the middle of nowhere but its a pleasant surprise). The potato-skin-something menu was a brilliant, served great, tasted great, plus raised your appetite. The cheek was in another league, soft and tender, its lovely. Plenty of others which served with better taste but nobody beats this cafe's service. 6/5 stars you wont regret.

Just what Warren Village needed. We've been regular patrons of the COW since they took over and we loved it from day one. They had a few minor teething problems early on (as is expected of any young business) but they sorted them out and it's now one of our preferred places to eat in the area. The food tends to be a good mix of conservative favourites alongside more adventurous offerings, and while the more unconventional dishes don't always hit the mark 100% of the time they're always asking for feedback and seem to adjust the menu based on what they hear back. Lovely staff, very accommodating of kids, couldn't have asked for a better café in our little neck of the woods.

Will be back to try more off the extensive and interesting menu/specials. Friendly and attentive service, nicely decorated and good coffee in a decent size cup! Thoroughly enjoyed the corn fritters and my friend enjoyed the smashed avocado followed by a couple of cakes (muffins are delicious!). A must to try in the area!

After moving to Mordialloc a year ago we still hadn't found THE place for breakfast in town. That's changed now. This place is a gem located near bye Mordialloc with amazing food, coffee, excellent customer service and big ass freshly squeezed orange juices.
We definitely found our place.

A quality little joint out of the way in Parkdale and has the same feel as many of the cafés closer to the city. Friendly staff and an extensive menu with daily specials make this place is a little gem. The coffee was smooth and hot which is vital to get customers returning. I'll be back for food for sure!

Impressed!. Visited Cafe on Warren for my first lunch and thoroughly enjoyed the COW steak sandwich. The food is far superior to the expected cafe style and great value for money. I was impressed by the attentive and efficient staff. They did everything with a smile on their faces giving the cafe a friendly, happy vibe.
Overall, I'm very impressed.

Much Improved. We just visited COW. We live very close by. We went with your 2 year old son and the staff were very accomodating. High chairs available and crayons and paper bought to the table to help keep him happy.
The food was EXCELLENT. It is much improved from the previous owners. Prices were expected amounts but the menu was varied and the portion sizes were good.
We will be returning for sure and will be spreading the word amongst all the local mum's l know to head down.
Contrary to other reviews l found COW to be very kid friendly!

Happy go lucky Cafe on Warren, playfully abbreviated to COW is a great little spot for the locals. Grab a coffee or a giant fresh orange juice and peruse the menu and specials board. There is a full breakie menu as well as a great mix of pizza, pasta and usual suspects like a good old steak sandwich. Hubbies Souvlaki platter is a generous and interesting shaped plate! Great chips, lovely pita but hubby didn’t love the meat and thought it was a bit tough. Sensational pasta with creamy pesto sauce, fresh basil and sun dried tomato. Brother and I both had the same to avoid food envy and stole the lovely pita bread from hubby to mop up!! Service was a bit haphazard though we weren’t in a hurry, the locals seemed happy and I am sure we will be back again.
