Nice little cafe hidden gem of Elsty. Very nice decor and ambience for a weekend brunch! I got the NOK breakfast which was superb and the coffee was outstand too. Highly recommended if you're nearby for a bite!

Visited this cafe today with my family. Service and food were really quick. Coffee was amazing - Proud Mary is one of my all time favourites in Melbourne. No kids menu, so we ordered ham, cheese and tomato toasties for our kids which they loved. I had the NOK breakfast with bacon which was great - particularly the potato rosti and my hubby had the chilli scrambled eggs which he enjoyed. The only negative I will mention is that it is quite loud sitting inside and there was not any sound proofing up to reduce the noise level, so it was very hard to carry a conversation at times due to the volume of people inside.Things to note - space is really tight and if you have a pram (like we did) if there are others also with prams and highchairs, it can get a little tight and there is a step to get in and out of the cafe. The cafe courtyard is currently closed due to staffing issues, but you can enjoy sitting out the front outside. They take reservations. Parking is on the street and timed.

Thought we'd try this place on a whim since it's local, and wow! What a great choice. It was one of the best breakfasts we've had in Melbourne.Two of us had smashed avocado and fetta on seed toast with different eggs.The plate was perfectly portioned, balanced, flavourful, beautifully presented and everything was cooked to perfection.The coffee was also great and the interior and decor is nice, warm, clean and comfortable. Everything you want in a great Cafe. They have clearly put a lot of thought into every detail at this place. We will definitely be back again.

I’m not usually compelled to write a review, but Next of Kin blew my tiny mind. I had the NOK breakfast, and every moment was a new experience. The poached eggs were cooked to perfection, mushroom was spiced masterfully (not the slight dirt taste you can often get at other places), and every other bite was so exciting! Also their huge house made hash browns were so exciting! The servers were also really pleasant and kind.Would highly recommend if you’re in the area. The coffee was a little bitter for my taste, however.I’ve never taken the time to write a review, and I may never again. Well done, Next Of Kin!!!

Strong Large Soy Milk Latte: perfect!The foam on top blends in perfectly with the coffee, without creating weird clumps of curdled milk... Then the drink becomes soft and dense :)Super good!Difficult to find this quality of coffee these days, for some reason :/Chilli Scrambled eggs with Roasted Mushrooms: perfect, again!These guys put so much flavor on this dish that I almost order another one :) It might be the pesto they add in between eggs!For sure, they are very generous with the chilli heheDon't get me wrong! I loved it, but next time I might get it a bit less spicy :)Not to mention the stellar staff :DThis brunch really made my day <3

I always come here after my work to get coffee and cake. The staff are good and they serve good coffees. My favorite dessert is the cake with coconut and raspberries, they're delicious and I've never had anything like. I highly recommend it to everyone to try. Their iced coffee is also good, I'm having it at the moment with a chocolate brownie, a good reward for a hard days work. The location is good though there's not much parking especially on the weekend but there's always side streets that you can find to park your car. The place is nice though it's a bit small but there's an outdoor seating with 6 chairs and 3 tables. There's also some seats at the back if you don't want to see people passing by. Over all, I highly recommend this place for coffee lovers.
