5 stars all around!
I am the club manager of Snap Fitness Burwood. The team and I have been coming to Harvest Blend for a very long time now and I was shocked to realise I had never given them a google review!
Most of us are here 2-5 times a week as it is local, cheap and good quality food! D and her amazing team know all of our coffee orders off by hard (there's 10 of us!) which shows how often we go!
We have a meeting once a month and will always go to Harvest Blend beforehand for breakfast all together! The team is always so accommodating, squeezing sometimes 20 of us in at a particular time or helping us move tables together for our bigger groups as a lot of members come with us!
We know their menu off the top of our heads and my aim is to try and get through the entire menu and try everything! My personal favourites are the Chicken or Salami Baguette, Chicken Wrap, French Toast, Chicken Burger with Chips and (the most recent addition) the Calamari Caesar Salad.
Such an amazing team of people (and talented baristas), incredible food, amazing atmosphere (always have good playlists pumping) and amazing coffee (according to my co-workers as I do not drink coffee).
I've attached some pictures of their exceptional latte art, us at work meetings (thanks D for the pic) and other bits and bobs of food!

Read moreI stumbled upon this small cafe on the edge of Camberwell, and it turned out to be a true hidden gem! Although the space is cozy, everything from the food to the service was absolutely spot on, making it a memorable experience.
I tried their daily special, crispy pork belly, and it was incredible. The pork belly had the perfect crackling on the outside—crispy to the point where you can hear the crunch—and the meat inside was tender, juicy, and packed with flavor. To balance it out, they served it with a papaya salad that was sweet with a slight tang of acidity and a gentle kick of spice. The fresh crunch of the papaya paired beautifully with the richness of the pork belly.
Their cold brew coffee was another highlight. On a hot Melbourne summer day, it was just what I needed—smooth, refreshing, and with a deep coffee aroma that wasn’t too bitter. I also ordered a flat white, and to my surprise, it came with a unicorn art! It’s the small thoughtful touches like this that make a place stand out.
The staff were incredibly friendly, they made the whole experience warm and welcoming. Their genuine smiles and attentiveness made me feel right at home.
If you’re in the Camberwell area, this cafe is a must-visit. Whether it’s for their daily specials or a good cup of coffee, you won’t be...
Read moreUpdate, after 4th/5th visit I went back and took guests this time. So not worth it. The quantity of food on your plate doesn't equate to quality and the table service was lack luster, it wasn't busy but all the staff were just hanging around the bar/counter. I think the supervisor served us but even she was unprofessional, asking for a clean glass or extra fork had her huffing and puffing with annoyance. Such a shame because this place really does have potential. I felt bad my guests had made the effort to travel here for that sort of place. I won't be going back except maybe for a take away coffee if I'm in a hurry. Come on @harvestblend sort it out!!
original review, after 2/3visits*Great coffee as well as a nice atmosphere. I’ve visited a few times and will go back again but I have to say the food doesn’t quite hit the mark. The crispy salmon was a bit watery and the eggs Benedict came on a very heavy potato thing, when I asked for smoked salmon to be added to a dish, they added so much that it overwhelmed all the other flavours. They’re obviously trying to add a unique twist to some basic meals but it’s unnecessary. Having said that, portions are generous and there’s...
