Stand & Deliver Cafe

A cool space. A feel and layout to the cafe that nicely matches the neighbourhood location. Variety in the space, with benches, tables and chairs, bench seats with cushions, and outdoor tables. An example of the attention taken to the space is a huge square table with bench seats that supports large green pot plant to potential offer relatively private seating to multiple groups. There’s also a cool little hole in the wall for footpath takeaway service. The menu made deciding on food a difficult decision. But cauliflower and poached eggs lured me into the Turkish breakfast. A regretful choice unfortunately. A pretty and colourful presentation but only 4 bits of little cauliflower to accompany a very buttery sauce. The bread was good and pomegranate seeds were a nice touch but this wasn’t really enough to overcome the oiliness and the bowl of runny textures. I found myself really eyeing the quinoa, pumpkin and rocket salad bowl.

Awesome Brunswick vibes at A Minor Place 😎 Had the bubble and squeek recently and loved the richness of the dish and something a lil different for breakfast. Nice innovation on that one. Nice coffee. Intimate but cool feel amongst lovely period homes in the neighbourhood. Nice job guys 👌 Edit - tried the chilli prawn scramble - straightforward but could have used a touch more salt and spice. Good if you want a milder menu item though. Club sandwich was nice and fresh with crispy waffle fries, yum! Edit edit!: Grabbed the club sandwich (again) and steak sandwich. Massive serve which led me to take half home for a dinner special! Tasty, however the steak sandwich is a touch on the sweet side for my tooth.

We had a lovely meal at A Minor Place this Sunday. We have come on and off for over two decades. The menu is just as good, if not better than when we started coming. This weekend, I had the Minor Brekky, my partner had the Okonomiyaki. Both were excellent - fresh, hot and delicious. Some tips for eating here on the weekend: It is super busy and there is often a line up between 10-11. Given current conditions I would recommend booking a table to reduce wait time. Also, as there are a lot of people waiting to be seated, the staff told us they would prefer us not to hang out and use laptops during a busy period. Be prepared to eat and go on a public holiday, Saturday or Sunday morning. There is also tons of seating but this means the staff are absolutely run off their feet. Be prepared to wait a little to receive your coffee and food orders.

The food was delicious! Really tasty fresh ingredients cooked well. Only one thing I think they could improve on is having sharper knives, like steak knives. The butter knifes have trouble cutting through the toast. Food and atmosphere is top knotch though. Feels like you've cooked yourself a nice breakfast at home and you're sitting out on your balcony or backyard eating it.
