I came here for lunch, however the breakfast menu was still available to my delight at 2.15pm! The choices were delightful, something for everyone. The service was excellent, I was offered water, drinks and coffee on several occasions. I was lucky to stumble on this great place, it was difficult to find something in the area that looked clean, modern and with a great choice. The display cabinet was also full of fresh choices for "on the go". I was only disappointed that I did not get a chance to come back while I was in the area. Very close to Epworth Box Hill Hospital.

I commence to eat @ this Restaurant recently . I've been twice there in two weeks There is a thoughtful creative menu with delightful choices for breakfast and lunch. Meals are medium priced, well presented and the atmosphere is quiet and relaxed.The staff are enthusiastic and there is a good staff to customer ratio. Wine(S) cocktails and soft drinks are available as well superior coffeeIts certainly a significant step forward in food quality and variety for box hill and surrounding areas.

I ordered a strong hot chocolate on Monday and paid $4.20I ordered a strong hot chocolate on Tuesday and was asked for $4.70. When I queried the difference I was told that a strong hot chocolate costs an extra $0.50. Putting the inconsistency in price from one day to the other aside, I deem this to be an excessive mark-up for perhaps an extra half-teaspoon of chocolate powder. I will not be returning on principle and will go elsewhere for my daily fix.

I opted for the garlic and potato waffle from a long list of tempting choices, It was well presented with perfectly cooked eggs and the Hollandaise sauce made every mouthful enjoyable. The other dishes being served looked attractive and appealing. Service and coffee was good. Definitely going to be pulled back for a return visit that Bright comfortable setting with breakfast.Thanks for the vote if you found this review helpful. Book a table now

No parking out front, limited parking nearby, inside was very well presented, i noticed the people from the tax office who are in the same building were getting their coffee from an outside business which was strange, pricing a little on the high side, breakfast was not the best that i had, although i did notice regulars, wheel chair accessible, bathroom very nice and has disabled / parent facility access.

Had a very pleasant time here in Box Hill. It's a change from the many Asian varieties we have here.The food is reasonably good and the service is just as good. Wish it was more gastronomical as they are competing on price and taste with the rest of Box Hill.Ambiance is fantastic though and that alone brought us there.

Box Hill is full of cheap Asian eateries so it's nice to see a slightly more upmarket restaurant appear. I visited with a large group - some of us loved the food and some thought it needed improvement. Personally I enjoyed it, the service was good, food tasty and would want to return to try their breakfast menu.

Food was great, menu had great variety but the service today was so slow but still very friendly. Will return one day in the hope that they were having a bad day as the food was worth the wait. Book a table now

Had high hopes but the coffee was too hot, too thin and too weak. Sorry guys but it tasted like a 7 Eleven $1 cappuccino.
