Small eatery located in a semi-industrial area of Cheltenham. An ambient place to stop for a bite to eat, or for a smoothie or a coffee. Food options are quite limited, although they can make simple lunch items on request. Service is excellent and you can tell that the owner takes pride in her little cafe.

For $10 per person per hour, you can sit among the resident cats of Melbourne's first cat cafe. It is called a 'cafe', but don't complain about the quality of your machine coffee- it is really about the cats. A must-see attraction for any cat lover, although I must admit that respectfully watching the sleeping cats is not as fun as cuddling my cat at home.

Delicious and interesting breakfast dishes. It is rare to find somewhere serving food that is healthy and scrumptious. A breath of fresh air with adorable decor.

The strong point of Cafe Romantica is its late night opening hours. Unfortunately after they gave us a dirty table, had too many staff hovering over us as we were being seated, and forgot to put through our order, I cannot speak to their having decent service.
The food itself was fairly decent for this type of venue, and moderately priced.

Trendy burger joint in a tip-top location. There is no table service, so it is a little like a fast food restaurant. Fresh ingredients and large serving sizes on the burgers, would definitely recommend for when you are ravenous and craving a juicy burger.

Adorable little cafe in a convenient location. The lunch menu is succinct but has a few options for any tastes. Unexpectedly great decor but it is a little cold due to the industrial-chic vibe.

Great food in big serving sizes. Staff are friendly and helpful. Really cosy but quiet enough to talk. Really like the variety on the menu and how everything is reasonably priced.
