I had the best coffee and orange cake ever.
I've made it now my morning ritual to visit Mr Burch.
Service and food was excellent.
Would highly recommend coming here!

Had a fabulous breakfast here last Saturday - service and food was excellent. Would highly recommend coming here!

I found Mr Burch on a list of the best vegetarian burgers in Melbourne so had to give it a go. The burger was indeed good, but the chips were amazing! Fat, crispy chips which were fluffy in the middle. YUM!

I loved going to Mr Burch.
Its a quirky little café with amazing food and wine and beer !!
Now serves high tea from 3pm on Saturday and Sunday. Scones , cute sandwiches and champagne !!!!

Approximate cost: $18

Nice little place. Sat upstairs which is cosy. Nice big breakfast I could hardly finish. Coffees were fine, nothing amazing and reasonable value. Good service and friendly staff that didnt mind us staying for quite a while after finishing our drinks and breakfast.

Approximate cost: $14

Mr Burch is a cute double story in McKinnon and a place I find myself returning to again and again. While other cafes in the area seem to always have new staff Mr Burch has the regulars which makes for a more homely atmosphere. There is seating outside, inside and upstairs but arrive early on the weekends as they are very popular. Service isn't the quickest but its not an annoyance. The food the serve is always great- I love their burcher muesli, burgers, chips and hot drinks the most.

The company that I work for recently moved to McKinnon and, since the move, Mr Burch has very quickly become my regular. The café itself is gorgeous; a converted two-storey terrace that is decorated with vintage pieces of furniture and bric-a-brac. There's plenty of space both upstairs and downstairs to sit, and the outdoor area is lovely (they provide cute & colourful crocheted blankets so you can rug up on cooler days!) I especially love the table in the window box at the front of the café; it's a lovely, sunny spot to sit at and watch the world pass you by.

Mostly I purchase my regular take-away coffee from here, but I have eaten in a couple of times as well. The coffee is great and the baristas are quick without reducing the quality of the finished product. I've even started to enjoy soy milk lattes, which are something I'd never have had before (but now require due to dietary restrictions). You even get a small discount if you use a KeepCup, which adds up if you drink as much coffee as I do!

The first time I ate in, I had the corn fritters. The dish was well-presented, but the corn fritters were (surprisingly) a little more like corn pancakes. It was quite a sweet, cakey consistency and not really my thing. It came with delicious, perfectly cooked bacon and a yummy tomato chutney, which certainly took the dish up a notch or two. On this occasion I found the service to be a little slow, as there were only one or two other people in the café and it took around 20 minutes to get my order (a bit worrying as I was only on a short lunch break and was due back in the office!) but subsequent visits have been much improved so it was probably just a one off.

On the second occasion I ate in, I had the huevos rancheros, which was basically scrambled eggs with chorizo, avocado and salsa on a toasted tortilla. It was quite delicious and very filling, but nothing like the traditional huevos rancheros I've had in the past, so a little surprising. The service was much faster, however.

More recently I purchased a selection of their delicious cakes and slices for a farewell afternoon tea we were having for a staff member in the office. I must HIGHLY recommend the chocolate brownie with fresh raspberries – it was moist and deliciously chocolatey without being too rich. The raspberries were ripe and tart, a perfect fusion with the dense chocolate. I'm told it was baked fresh that morning, so even better! We also had the gluten-free orange cake, carrot cake and choc-cherry crumble, all equally delicious.

All up, I'd definitely recommend Mr Burch as a great place to visit for coffee and/or a breakfast or lunch meal. The staff are always friendly and polite and the atmosphere is relaxed and comfortable. Just be aware that it can get pretty busy – and therefore crowded – so try going in late on weekday afternoons if you prefer it to be quieter and more spacious.

Possibly the best coffee in Mckinnon. Place is always crowded and as such this speaks for itself . The food here is lovely but it can be a bit difficult finding a table as it is a rather small cafe.

We had lunch here today and was very happy overall. The quiche of the day was very nice and came with 6 croquettes and tomato relish (it would have been nice with a small green salad, but that would be nit picking...) The others had a pot pie which was also good, but did not have a strong taste of guinness although the meat was fall apart and tasty nonetheless. They are also licensed and make a pretty good coffee and there are lots of yummy looking cakes.
