Wow. Great vibe, awesome food, impeccable staff. Just an all around great place that serves up delicious food and great tasting coffees.
We had a beautiful experience at TP! The staff were lovely and attentive! The food was delicious and worth the price, the presentation of the meals ( especially the hot cakes ) wow - we will be back!
The blueberry and ricotta hot cake is an old favourite, a must order whenever we visit Top Paddock - consistent quality, although the portion size has slightly shrunk over the years.
Best breakfast I've ever had. Eggs cooked perfectly, and great balance of flavors!
A nice popular brunch Cafe with lovely service. We were seated outside beside a warm heater.
The Soy chai latte- smoothe texture but the foam was quite thick and sticky.
Egg Benny was delicious were perfectly poached eggs, a crispy yet soft potato rosti and well flavoured chorizo
The hotcakes were so good. Sweet syrup to drizzle over the spongy hotcokes which had the light crisp crust and topped with a generous amount of fruit and cream.
Amazing service, beautiful coffee and absolutely loved the food!
Ordered:
Hotcakes $22 🥞
Chai Tea $4.5 ☕️
Well known for their hotcakes 🥞, decided to give it a try. It was no doubt superb amazing but I personally found it rather sweet - more like way way to sweet to my liking. Humongous serving portion that I didn’t have to eat dinner that day - probs can feed 2 individuals.
Nice place. Good location.
The staff was very nice. I appreciated that they gave personal service.
Nothing to say about the food. It was good - like you usually get in Melbourne.
Coffee was good.
Great ambience and fantastic coffee. We got a top paddock and eggs your way (poached) with Rosti. Top Paddock tasted fantastic. Eggs your way, could be better. One poached egg was way overcooked. Loved the rosti. Hot choc, it was good but not fantastic. Overall, We would go back again :)
Always really nice visiting here. The staff are very friendly and attentive. Can get very busy. Nice restaurant with delicious food.
its amazing and fantastic experience.
The hotcake is an extremely popular dish and one of their best. Highly recommend visiting here!

I ordered the slow roasted lamb shoulder with extra Rosti and the flavours were amazing, I couldn’t fault anything with this dish. The portion size for the meals can be on the smaller side so ordered an extra rosti which made the dish just the right size. My friend ordered the avocado dish and we weren’t impressed with that at all, it was a quartered avocado with not much else on the plate. The dish was so small and underwhelming.
Cafe was busy and very loud inside but we loved the interior, it is a beautiful space to spend brunch on a weekend.
This brunch location is just a short tram ride from Richmond station, and is a great place to catch up with mates... Although a booking is recommended, as it can get quite busy. The food is on the pricier side. I ordered the pancakes. They were extremely delicious; although, I wish they had used icecream and not cream.... Probably a once-off visit for me.
The food and service here was absolutely amazing. We were seated at a large share table and even with others there was an abundance of room for us to have a decent distance from them.
We looked at the menu before coming and the array of food was amazing, when arriving they had a newer menu and it was even better than the online one. So I couldn't have been happier.
The place was a little loud for my liking, but due to the weather everyone was sitting inside out of the rain so that was definitely a contributing factor.
I would have loved it the coffee cups were a little bit bigger, but the coffee itself was fantastic. Would definitely return and recommend.
We came here every Friday. I'm glad to give five stars to the the big breakfast which is named The Top Paddock. Only $25 with a large portion includ everything. The special tomato sauce in it has amazing taste, must have a try~
The place has the best atmosphere for dining! I highly recommend the hotcake, it’s very delicious. But the drink isn’t that good, so maybe try more food than coffee.
Finally got to one of Melbourne's most popular cafes. The highly raved Top Paddock. Great service team, warm hospitality and all smiles in spite of the crowd.
We had to walk over to the bar to get someone to take our order. Not a deal breaker unlike some reviews below...
Coffee was below average if we're being honest. Expected more. Hot chocolate was great though!
Ordered the pork belly and the beef brisket. And my oh my, they are definitely better with food.
It was delicious. Beef brisket was soft and tears like freshly baked bread. However, we think it can do with more flavour. Buns were toasted well. Fries were perfectly fried.
Pork belly stole our hearts. If I wasn't fat, I would've ordered another portion. Love the glaze on the veggies and pork. Crackling was really crispy.
Definitely a top choice for brunch if you're in the area!
Came for brunch! Thankfully there were seats available. Service was prompt and there was someone to get us seated and take our orders promptly.
Coffee was not too bad and the food was excellent! Really like the entire vibes and atmosphere of the place as well. Worth a visit for sure.
Filling breakfast, pretty plates, good beverage selection. Decent omni & vegan options.
My friend chose the venue & have no complaints, $$ but food was filling so worth it
