Amazing cafe with a nice atmosphere there. Food service was lovely and definitely a good place to have a meeting. They have toilets and plenty of street parking to choose from. You also have the option to sit down inside the shop or outside for those with dogs. The coffee option is good and it’ll make you want to become a regular. The food is also just as amazing and I highly recommend their hash brown. Something about it taste so good it’s always worth grabbing a bite for it there.

I went to this cafe today and it is a full house. Was gonna have the pumpkin, but its not available. So I picked avocado grub and I have the nicest avocado toast ever, love the zaatar oil on the side as well. My friend had the french toast and she said it was nice too. I would definitely be back to try other dishes as well.

It is a lovely small cafe with friendly warm stuff, and I had very high expectations after checking the menu as they provided a good range of selections. We have ordered hash and shashouka with an extra hash brown.
Hash brown was crispy and delicious.
The coffee was quite milky and not strong, not sure if it was because that we ordered with soy milk.
Unfortunately we didn’t enjoy both dishes, which took about 25 minutes (acceptable considering the cafe was full)
Especially the shashouka, both eggs were overly cooked and it was very very dry, same with the meat ball, the whole dish was extremely dry and I couldn’t swallow without water, hence I have to waste half of the dish. The favor wasn’t too bad however.
We spent about $68 for two dishes plus two coffee which is neither expensive nor cheap.
I would say the cafe is very popular around that area, however based on our experience with food we have ordered today, We probably won’t come back,

$16 price on the high side when I had bacon egg roll/ Chai latte which was very weak/ more like warm milk. Medium/average service/ atmosphere- there is much better value/overall experiences at Other places

Yesterday went for brunch and this cafe is a gem! Service was great polite, attentive and fast considering they were busy on Holy Saturday. I ordered a vegetarian breakfast and it tasted delicious, great portion and really tasty. Simple dish and beautifully presented. They have Purezza as water again little details that made me feel special as a client.
Beautiful spot in Marrickville with a great food offering at reasonable prices and fantastic service! Thanks guys!

Had a latte and the lebanese breakfast.
Latte was lovely, creamy and flavourful. The lebanese breakfast was horrible. Eggs tasted strangely off, did not finish or enjoy. Sausages were micro and only recieved 2 peices of haloumi strings. Very disappointing, dont waste your money. Staff didn't seem to care when I notified them, will not be coming back to this place.

The food was just average. My partner liked his Lebanese Brekky, but I didn't enjoy my bowl (lacked the flavour and the chicken was dry). Based on other reviews, I expected the food to be better. Also, had to remind them of our drinks.

Kelby’s is one of our locals and never disappoints. Today we were lucky enough to walk in while they were running a Valentines Day brunch option which is going all week - it happens to be my birthday so the ricotta pancake sliders to finish were prefect. The staff are always lovely as are the locals, we had two stop to admire our tier of savoury delicacies, who were even more impressed when I told them about the sliders yet to come. We are spoilt for choice of cafes in the Inner West, but I am glad we decided on Kelby’s today. The coffee never disappoints which is a huge draw card too.

I absolutely love Kelbys! The portions are so generous, the flavours are in abundance and the service is always warm and friendly! The food will knock your socks off (the Lebanese spices are spot on) and the coffee they now roast is honestly one of the best I have tried. They don’t do anything in halves! Love shooting for them, I have been shooting for them for over 3 years now and I’m still always in awe of their menu creations! MUST TRY!

Arrived here at around 7: 15am on a weekday only be told to come back in 20 mins despite the trading hours on the front door stating being open at 6: 30am. We are residents of over 4 decades in the area and this place always seems to be busy with good reviews and we thought it would be worth the wait.
The wait was not worth it and I was really disappointed. We are really passionate about food, the entire area has really transformed into a food haven making the standard much higher than it once was.
Being Lebanese, The Lebanese breakfast interpretation was by far the worst interpretation of a Lebanese breakfast that I have had. Bland, tasteless the sucuk burnt pieces looked to be pieces left from the previous day. Most items presented on the plate appeared to be store bought with little to no passion on truly heroing the cuisine here.
The eggs Benedict was a greasy mess. It seemed to be confused with a savory and sweet taste. Throughout the whole day it left my mouth with a icky aftertaste.
The coffee was nothing to write home about.
All in all, paid over $100 to experience this overrated cafe.

Everything was amazing! Just amazing!
The warm decor, the rustic ambience, great customer service - just perfect.

Went here for brunch. Ordered the poached egg croissant and was not disappointed at all. Everything was fresh. Washed it down with coffee. Cannot recommend this place enough.
Stay blessed y'all

Unexpectedly surprised with delicious food. Definitely returning for more

Edit; I don't usually use the salt and pepper when dining. However rusty shakers are quite a disappointment.

Good coffees however a little disappointed with the big breakfast. Can confirm as others pointed out in previous reviews that there is a surcharge on the weekends.

Me and my partner went here for brunch and it was the best! Loved the food and especially the drinks. The hot chocolate and coffee was the best I’ve had in a long time!

A brilliant cafe offering excellent breakfast / brunch style food with middle eastern influence. We ordered the Orange, watermelon and pineapple juice, Haloumi stack, Kibbeh Shakshoukah, Banana milkshake. All were delicious, well presented and healthy. Definitely recommend coming here - one of the best, if not the best in Marrickville. Regards @fooderarri

Very pleasant Cafe with exquisite food and seating. Sad that I don't live close by anymore and haven't been able to visit for a year.
