Sweet Evelyn — Restaurant in Melbourne

We were looking forward to a really nice breakfast the photos on the menu looked appetising,my partner ordered the Turkish eggs,I orderd corn fritters with a poached egg and hollandaise sauce on the side,,well the Turkish eggs came out boiling hot and drownd in sauch and was completely different to the one on the photo,on the menu infact it was spose to be served on a bed of spiced yoghurt with a poached egg on top it came drownd in sauce with a hard egg and my partner ended up not enjoying the small amount she tried to eat as it wasent what she expected at all,,then my dish the fritters were really thick there was 2 they were mushy in the middle and again nothing like the photo of what I expected so I wasn't impressed although I did eat myne please see photos of what we got and photos from the menu,also I will note later on we reverse google searched the images there all of the internet of other chefs meals!the photo of the eggs of what we got then the photo on the menu then the photo from reverse google search they just zoomed in a little also the photo i have added my fritters is there and the one on the menue showed a stack of 4 or 5 yummy looking fritters that looked nothing like the ones I got,we were really dissapointed,last time we went a few months ago around Christmas the food was awsom so I don't no what's happend but it's a definite...

I loved this place when I regularly came approx 5 years ago. It was a nice vibe, table service, magnificent coffee and food. Unfortunately my recent visit, my coffee wasn't good. It was really bad. The milk tasted off. When I mentioned it to the team member, he checked the date of bottle that was on bench not in a fridge (wasn't busy) and said it has 11 more days. I've had milk go off even when well within BBD. He motioned to my friends coffee saying I used the same milk. We mentioned hers was Almond milk. Anyway I'm a big coffee drinker and I know of the milk isn't good. The offer to make another one felt like it was a nuisance....but I didn't want another one after tasting the bad milk. Please handle these situations with more care and apology. I understand things can go wrong, it's how we handle them and make the client feel that's key. Don't leave milk out when not busy, smell the actual milk as opposed to just checking the date. Just some suggestions.

My friends sausage roll looked like it was made a while ago, overcooked, warmed up and oily. She didn't love it. Possibly the cooked meals are better, they used...

I finally made it to Sweet Evelyn Café, and honestly… I’m already planning my next visit. This little spot is so warm and welcoming, it feels like catching up with a friend you haven’t seen in a while.

Let’s talk about the French toast – hands down the best I’ve had in a long time. Think fluffy brioche, creamy mascarpone, fresh fruit, and just the right amount of maple syrup. It was the kind of dish that makes you stop mid-bite and go, “wow.”

I also tried their spanakopita, and it tasted just like something you’d get from a Greek family kitchen – flaky, golden, and full of flavour. Add a perfectly brewed coffee and you’ve got the dream brunch.

The vibe? Super chill. The staff were lovely, the courtyard is gorgeous. Total win. My husband tried the chicken panini and chicken ceaser salad with watermelon lemonade absolutely delicious

If you’re around Brunswick and looking for a cosy spot with heart, good food, and dog-friendly feels – Sweet Evelyn is it.
