I drive past often and loved how cosy the place looked and couldn't wait to finally call in. Looking for somewhere new to take mum for lunch I thought it would be nice to finally go in for lunch . We were really disappointed with the whole experience and I thought maybe it was an off day - the music was quite loud and heavy metal - maybe the poster near the entrance of Ozzy Osbourne should have given it away - the seating is hard, tight and uncomfortable, any way we were there for an hour and it was near the end as we were starting to leave did the music change and it was Paul Kelly.The coffee we were told by our host was all the same - which is a cup - so for mug lovers it is only served in...
Went here for lunch with a friend on Saturday 1 Oct. I had high hopes, but was sorely disappointed. Firstly, the wait staff are too cool to be enthusiastic. I wanted a large coffee but was told they only had one size. In fact, they were serving filter coffee in mugs, but for some reason it wasn't possible to serve a flat white in the mug? Hipster pretentiousness perhaps? The food was not cheap and not big either. The butter was not enough to cover one slice of the large toast never mind two. The poached eggs were hard and the flavour - bland.But, by far the worst part of this disappointing experience was the death metal music that was blaring through the joint. Seriously! There isn't any cir...
Manfriend had been wanting to check True North out for ages, so went along for breakfast. Super warm service as soon as you step in the door - kinda feels like I'm in someone's house. Eclectic set up, with the walls and shelves covered in weird and wonderful Latin-esque paraphernalia. Went for a breakfast quesadilla, not great but maybe I had food envy over the Alamo that Manfriend ordered. He also enjoyed the vast selection of hot sauces - I've never seen such concentration over a condiment selection! Will come back and try again, just wasn't what I felt like on the day.

Called in here for breakfast on our last morning in Coburg. This place recommended by our Airbnb host and we weren't disappointed. Friendly service and good food. Loved their decor, very retro and eclectic.(Especially for me what appeared to be an original MC5 poster). I ordered the Texas Eggs and my partner had Huevos Rancheros. Both generous portions and enjoyable, I found the tortilla chips intriguing. Coffee was also nice and appears to be a popular choice for the locals as well. on a our next visit to Melbourne we will be back.
There are a couple of reviews that state that the service is slow. It is quite slow, but the staff members are friendly when they finally get there.The food was tasty. They can veganise almost all the dishes on the menu.The Peachy Pancakes were some of the best I have had in a very long time. Big vegan win!Coffee is Melbourne coffee worthy. Bit pricey, but great spot for veg/non-veg catch-ups.
The service was VERY friendly and EXTREMELY SLOW! The coffee was SOUR. Yes! SOUR! The "Blueberry" bagel tasted like butter and garlic. The poached eggs on toast were good, but not worth going there for.
Dropped in for the first time for lunch and am not feeling it. Fairly crowded & a good vibe. Friendly staff, but slow service & over priced for what it is. Overall a pretty average experience.

Hands down the best place for breakfast / coffee in Coburg. Friendly staff, great atmosphere and top notch food - the huevos rancheros are a particular favourite. Can't ask for more than that!
We came here for the first time in years (visiting Melbourne), I loved the hash smash and my wife always orders the Reuben. It was as great as we remembered.
