South of Johnston

Incredible fit out. Far and away the cosiest cafe in Melbourne. Food is fresh and interesting, healthy and accommodating to dietary/ethical requirements. Coffee is immaculate and the staff are lovely. I love to come here just to sit on their designer sofa by the fire.

Friendly staff and great atmosphere. Ordered Omelette, Fresh Fruit Salad, Croque Monsieur, Slow Roasted Shoulder Lamb Salad.
Would have to say the Fruit salad was the best, although pricey. Omelette; over cooked to the point where alittle dry and hardly any goats cheese. Croque Monsieur, alittle over cooked with the burnt butter taste. Lamb had good flavours and textures but could have done with alittle more of the feta, tomoatoes and olives. Two coffees and 2 lassies, cost was $104. All that attended said that they probably wouldnt go back.

Great little place that is tucked away on a quiet street, the perfect book to tuck away with close friends, with a book for some food and Supreme coffee. Inside there is some common. Lounges and a fireplace for those cold winter melbourne days. Staff is also really friendly and quick service.

I've only had two dishes here, and both were excellent.

The Southern Style Baked Beans on sourdough toast w roasted corn salsa, jalapeno mayonnaise, tomato & crushed avocado is our favorite.
It's also vegan.

The corn fritters are also exceptional.

AVOID ON PUBLIC HOLIDAYS - 20% Surcharge. Daylight robbery. They will position this as being so they can "pay staff fairly", but with the revenue (and NET profit) this place (which is consistently busy) would make, that's such bs. Sad to have to pan them as their food, coffee, and service is always fantastic. Management and/or proprietors are squarely responsible for this one. It's gouging, and it's not ok.

If you haven't been here, you can't say you have been to Fitzroy. I think this place is overwhelmingly the best among the cafes in Fitzroy. 4 cups of coffee with french fries is perfect harmony. Gurantee
