Mr Macleod — Restaurant in Melbourne

Not much open in Macleod on a Sunday for food and coffee. The coffee I orderedwas good and my friend was happy with her smoothie and croissant.

I ordered Eggs Benedict, I was surprised that I had to pay extra for two eggs. Never in the very many Eggs Benedicts I've had in cafes over the years have I found one egg the norm. Paying for a second egg made the meal more expensive than I'm used to paying (even in Sydney).

The eggs and sauce were done well. The ham tasted weird (there were no other optons i.e. salmon, spinach or bacon).

They perfectly accommodated our special requests. The service was swift and friendly, and the interior design and ambiance resembled that of a cozy old country home with lots of colorful paintings on every wall. The only drawback was the banana bread, which, in my opinion, had an uncooked flour taste. They also offer several vegan and gluten-free options. Remarkably, despite the organic offerings, the prices were competitive, if not lower than those of other cafes. I would definitely...
