Great food, with good variety and options. Excellent for coffee and a muffin....seriously the best muffins ever!
Dog friendly back section and the staff are very welcoming.....just like visiting friends! Can't wait to get back there!!
Delicious food, great range of gluten free options and friendly service.
I'm surprised by the bad reviews, we really enjoyed Pomona. Coffee was good, staff were friendly and food was tasty. We sat in the back in the sun. Avocado smash with chorizo was delicious.
Had a Lovley brunch here today, service was really friendly and not forceful which I love ! I had green special which was yum with side of poached egg and toast . Green tea brewed perfectly too, would definitely return .
Despite the coffee miss the elaborate texturing of the soy milk, the flavour was really good. The coffee doesn't hold a strong level of acidity with latte. I had the polenta, well plated and full of mild flavour. I will be back to try more food.
A cafe that is always mentioned over in the facebook groups is Pomona Cafe in Preston. The Cafe boasts being a spelt and gluten free specialist. Of course, spelt is not gluten free which made me a tad cautious. However, with positive reviews and the use of the phrase gluten free specialist, my curiosity was peaked. I ordered the Burnt Butter Gnocchi which was a really filling dish, no external reactions and they took contamination seriously.
I've been here a few times and I love the cafe itself, the atmosphere and design is beautiful, the staff are super friendly and enthusiastic, and the home made treats in the front cabinet are scrumptious.
However I feel the menu is a bit hit and miss - some items aren't very well presented and look very plain when they come out, and some of them taste quite bland (the corn fritters come to mind)
Hot cakes are a gluten free delight though, and also present nicely.
I wouldn't get another black coffee as both my long black and short black were bitter and burnt tasting.
The menu is delightfully diverse for being mainly GF, and staff are super accommodating with changes. Overall it's a lovely cafe, I would just be careful of what I order and read reviews carefully.
Pomona cafe unfortunately had a plumbing issue and the ground was covered with water while we were there but the staff were still so lovely and positive. As a celiac I often struggle finding menu options but not at Pomona cafe. I had the ricotta hotcakes and they were delicious. The first one I had was incredibly pillowy and soft but the other two were slightly more dense. Still had a great taste. My friend had the mint and pea fritters. They tasted a bit flour-y but the fresh salsa was great. My friend and I both thought they could be improved. But from my perspective it was a lovely meal and brunch spot.
A suburban gem. Pomona is a great little cafe that's does good coffee, muffins and breakfast. Tucked away in West Preston, it has a nice neighborhood vibe.
Came here for brunch, totally enjoyed it. Staffs are very attentive and friendly. Matcha latte and coffee was good. I normally prefer my matcha latte to be a bit stronger but I just forgot to tell them when I ordered. All the food was tasty and very reasonably price.
I can only comment on the coffee here and must say its always been great. I order a soy latte most days from here and have not been disappointed. The staff are friendly. I really want to try some of their gluten free options soon.
Pomona is the guaranteed never fail location for a faultless meal in Preston. Seems the change in ownership and staff have lifted this cafe to a new level.The menu is constantly changing and chefs are creative and inventive with menu choices.Staff ate friendly and curtious in manner. After 8 years of visiting Pomona I'm delighted to say it still meets my exceptations every time.
Really enjoy the food here and coffee, first time customer a fortnight ago and been back three times since. Love the Breakfast Burger and Reuben Sandwich (Pictured). Also love the homemade gingerbread and the coffee is great.
Lovely food and service. Perfect local brunch place for the neighbourhood. We work nearby and we always come here for either coffee or brunch!
Well-spent day with my friends in this lovely cafe. The food is incredibly great, the staff members are super friendly and helpful. My friends are really in love with the gluten free options. Best coffee in town. Will definitely come back
I was having an average day until Pomona’s halloumi sandwich, wow. The housemate beetroot relish is so delicious, and with avocado and greens the whole thing was so satisfying, with ideal amounts of the ingredients. Now having a great day, haha - So glad I found it!
lovely and quietly place ，u can enjoy ur coffee in this area
Lovely cafe. Hot chips were not gluten free unfortunately. Other good options for GF though.
My first time here at Pomona. It didn’t seem like a busy day but my coffee order took a good 15 to 20 minutes? And I ordered their Reuben Sanga. It was tasty, but it left me feeling underwhelmed.
I wanted to like this place more, but I can’t give it more than 4 stars based on my first experience there. Maybe they were having an off day.
Will I be back? Yes.
