"The food was amazing, especially the chicken fried, which was cooked perfectly."
5 A small and relaxed suburban cafe along Moray Street. We arrived on bikes, no problem finding a spot to park the bikes. Choice of inside dining or outside under the footpath awning. Brissy during an early spring morning, outside every time. Friendly and fast service, we ordered coffees, these were good and arrived promptly. Busy without being insane, noise not a problem, Moray Street is busy but not intrusive.
5 What a delightful breakfast spot! We walked there from our nearby accommodation so I cannot comment on the parking. However - the meals were delicious!! The atmosphere was loud. We were seated somewhat quickly as a couple had finished up and offered their table to us. We sat inside & I could hardly hear my fiancé speak. Luckily we were just there to eat and not chat haha the coffee was perfection too! The bacon was thick cut, hash browns oversized, mushrooms well seasoned - overall 10/10.
5 A lovely atmosphere with attentive and helpful staff. Food was plated beautifully, and delicious too! Would highly recommend for a brunch date!
5 Hey Mr. Cafe is a lovely spot for a good coffee and a bite to eat. Staff were very helpful and friendly. I had a almond croissant which was nice and fresh. There is no kids menu so I wouldn't recommend it for children. There's several vegetarian options on the menu.
5 The ingredients in the food were so fresh. The combination of the ingredients worked very well. One downfall was my mum’s eggs were hard when she asked for softly poached eggs. The pickled veggies were a nice touch to the bowl. Our coffees tasted delicious, and the customer service was welcoming and warm.
5 We went for brunch today at Hey Mr. New Farm and it did not disappoint. The mango smoothie, made with coconut milk (a huge plus), tasted like pure paradise. Our dishes were beautifully presented and tasted just as good as they looked.
