3.9. Visited Miss Reuben on Glen Eira Rd in Ripponlea today for a take away sandwich on the run: pastrami, red kraut and dijon was the order. On the pricey end for a sandwich but well worth it. Beautiful sandwich arrived - pictured - with a side of pickle and a scoop of patato salad with dill and caper. The pastrami was the proper stuff - think Jewish style corned beef. Red kraut has perfect vinegary texture and was crunchy and magnificent. The sandwich was juicy and oozing with piquant Dijon. After a sandwich like this for lunch, no dinner is required! Nice fitout here if you want to sit in, and they do takeaway too. The sandwich was $18 and that they do catering as well as take away. 3.9
My partner and I found ourselves in Elsternwick one Saturday and decided to try Miss Ruben's Canteen for breakfast/brunch. I really loved my Corn & Paprika Waffles and my partner enjoyed his Reuben sandwich. The coffee was great too. Would also love to try their takeaway salads next time!
Eclectic mix of dine in and take out. Great salads for the health conscious but you can’t go past the the signature pastrami. Niccolo coffee. Ripponlea keeps getting better
Absolutely fantastic sandwiches. The only shame is you probably want to eat 3 in one sitting. Can be difficult to get a seat as it's usually pretty crazy.
Lovely salads, flourless chocolate cake and lemongrass & ginger tea. I'm very surprised with the previos bad reviews. Front staff was lovely and friendly. I quite liked the salads. Many options to chose from. I would suggest you to give it a try. I have very sensitive stomach. I can't eat out without suffering but I had very pleasant experience in here.
I visit here regularly for lunch as I work around the corner. The salads are amazing, I have tried remaking the quinoa salad repeatedly at home and it's never the same!
Love popping into Muss Ruben's Canteen. There coffee each time has been delicious and the number of salads and spanakopita I've tried over the times have been sensational.
Great little spot to come for lunch. If you're a fan of New York style deli, then you will love this place. I had the pastrami sandwich, gluten free bread available, and it came out exactly as you would hope. Piled high with delicious pastrami just like in those New York deli's.
Fairy expensive, however one sandwich is enough to fill you up comfortably. The salads looked very overpriced.
We will definitely return.
Awesome little cafe with a whole lot more - delicious takeaway and take home meals as an extra offering. Must try their Ruben breakfast burger
Amazing Pastrami/Corn beef sandwiches... Best in Melbourne imo - rivalling the USA deli style Rubens... The salads were also amazing! Seating is scarce so be prepared to take away.
