Schokolade Cafe — Restaurant in Melbourne

Came here for a coffee and cake after lunch. There were about 5 gluten free cakes/slices options which is good. I ordered the brownie and lemon cake, about $6 each which I reckon is expensive for the size and the lack of taste.

The lemon cake was dry and was a struggle to eat, thank goodness for the icing which I slathered over each bite. The brownie had macadamia and maybe choc chips but each bite was dry and bitter, perhaps the dark chocolate was too dark.

The flat white was in a regular size cup $4.50 but was too milky. The piccolo latte was strong and tiny which is expected so at least they got that right.

The service was so so, the white lady that took our order was abrupt, I wouldn't say rude but not pleasant either, it was like she was thinking "hurry up and order, stop asking me questions". The tall white boy just constantly wanted to clear our table. The only person with a smile was an Asian lady who brought our drinks/food out, when we asked for water, she happily brought it over with a smile.

I don't know why such rave reviews for this place, I was disappointed. But the outside seating is good, about three tables on the footpath and 3 more in the section that extends to the carpark lane. The afternoon sun hits that area hard but on a 15 degree day, it was very...

This is definitely the best cafe that I've been visited in 5 years. This is more community, local, warm, friendly, feel sense of belong there... Customers are greet to staffs at the door first, instead of most of the business greet to the customers - feel cold, part of the job. Don't get me wrong. The staffs did acknowledge customers even when they work. I feel every staffs use their heart to work. Nearly every staffs had conversation to customers. This is a fast pace cafe. Customers are come & goes. From my experience, this is one of the successful business and customers feel belong there comparing with the other cafes surroundings. Yeah, no doubt other cafe doing very good in sales. Number 1 or top 3 in Victoria in business point of view. Overall nothing can compare with others in business, customers, staffs point of view and working environment. This is...

I went for a weekday lunch here, the staff is welcoming, warm and friendly. Grabbed a table outside being a beautiful warm sunny day in Melbourne and ambience was good. The menu is good for breakfast though but feel it needs a bit of thought for lunch and as per season. But hey, I know it's been a tough year so let's give it to them for now.

Ordered a "Fish & chips" and a "Pasta Carbonara". Fish and chips was absolutely brilliant and I could come here just for that any day. Very crisp, great quality and freshness can be felt all through 👍

Pasta Carbonara was good too, but it was too cheesy for a warm day and a bit on blander side. I would definitely recommend making a different pasta for warmer months, like - Pasta Pomodori, or Chilli & Garlic pasta.

All in all, a good spot for a nice relaxed...
