Visited here a while ago and had myself a good morning almond latte and feed. Initially, we had to wait a while to be served but it was busy and booming so it seemed like a minor niggle in the overall experience.
Had the bircher as pictured. I was stunned by the presentation I almost didn’t want to eat it... but I did and it was a delicious time!
Great baked eggs but more beans than mushrooms 🤨
FOOD: I ordered the ‘Moroccan Baked Eggs’ and they were great for one of my first baked eggs ever! The tomato flavour was delicious and it was great to warm you up on a cold day! In terms of flavour the baked eggs and roti was delicious, my only fault with them however would be that the portion and fillings were abit scarce. There was only about 3 mushrooms and for $20, I would have expected more but it ended up being 85% beans 10% egg 5% mushroom which for $20, threw me off 🥴 But all in all, in terms of flavour - I have no fault at all!
SERVICE: Pleasant!
Las Chicas is a great cafe that offers all kinds of different brunch items from savoury to sweet and it’s near the Balaclaca station so if you ever want some good cooked food near the station, Las Chicas is your place!
The coffee was insanely good. It was nice and creamy and smooth. The breakfast was also nice with lots of greens that were still nice and crunchy and the eggs cooked to perfection. The staff were very obliging also.
I only recently discovered Las Chicas as a brunch spot, I had previously only gone there in the morning to grab coffee before getting the train. If only I'd discovered it earlier! The food is delicious.
We ordered the Chickpea & Zucchini Fritters and the Breakfast Smash. I really enjoyed my fritters - they were one of the best I've ever had! They were perfectly crunchy and soft on the inside and were a big portion size. It was served with brocollini, avocado and a poached egg which were the perfect compliments to the fritters.
Will definitely be back to see what else they have to offer! The cabinet food looks great too, would be good for a quick lunch.
Went for breakfast this morning with my youngest daughter. We both had bikini Benedict.
Great meal, friendly and fast service. Orange juice wax the best. Great atmosphere . Will be back
Las Chias one of my fav in all of Melbourne . Have been lots of times . Staff are just lovely . Service great . Food and drinks spot on . Price you pay for what you get . Keep up the good work guys . Grateful for this gem . 🙏
Loved it, great food, good coffee, fast service friendly staff. Open fire out the back, nice atmosphere. Salads to take away for lunch- it’s a win!
Usually my go to place when I'm taking friends or family out for brekky or a coffee. Reasons being:
1. It's around the corner
2. It's really, really impressive
Down to the food, coffee, and the service. The service here is outstanding. Everyone is just super chill and friendly.
A review is pointless because the food is just always great, every food item, coffee is made with love, I'm just always happy here. The outdoor area is also great on a sunny day! Pop by! Literally any time. You won't be disappointed.
Picture below is the Brekky Burger and it's hands down the best Brekky Burger I've ever had in my life. No other Brekky Burger tops it X
Very good service, coffee great, nice salads, open fire, dogs allowed at section at the back... what is not to like.
Also right beside the Balaclava train station. Very convenient.

Rare to find a place that takes allergies and intolerances as seriously as these guys and who adapt to look after you. Result is amazing meal. One of Melbourne's very best. Awesome experience every tine
We recently visited this cafe while visiting our son in Melbourne. The menu was so good it was hard to choose. I had the Chickpea & Zucchini Fritters. Yum! My son had the Halloumi Puy Lentil Freekah Salad and my husband went to Pancake Heaven when his Buttermilk Pancakes arrived. My Chai Latté on Oat Milk was the best Chai I have ever had…. made with a gourmet chai leaf mix. We'll be back when next visiting Melbourne.
Cool place, chill vibe, food is nice with above average portion sizes. Give the coffee a 8/10 can recommend. Staff seem friendly and fun.
Highly recommend for catering - We had catering from Las Chicas for 50 people at our wedding ceremony in February 2022. Many people commented positively on the food! We got an assortment of muffins, croissants, bagels, arancini balls and quiches. The food was delicious, looked great and was filling. The catering was delivered on time and on solid, plastic platters which looked great. It was easy to order as Las Chicas had a function menu on their website.
Café with a touch of Mexican
Location: super easy to reach, its close to Balaclava train station.
Atmosphere: love time music, the interior. It’s a beautiful café and I love the indoor as well as the outdoor seating (outdoor is heated in winter, yay!).
Service: super friendly staff - bonus, they are quickly as well. You might still have to wait for a table without reservation but it’s totally worth it - and it’s not a one hour wait.
Food: no matter what you eat, it’s delicious. I tried the breakfast burrito and it’s amazing but my all time favourite gotta be the buttermilk pancake. So many delicious details!
Overall, I can 100% recommend it.
Arrived on Sunday " Brunch" time was busy but staff were VERY helpful getting us nice cosy table Food was just delicious from my egg bacon roll to others having fritters,pancakes,and rubber sandwich Coffee was great as well . Will be going back 😊😊👍
