Good service can overcome a lot of sins but there were no sins at Brick Lane. Nonetheless, excellent service was still the standout quality for me. I look forward to going again in order to try other things on the appealing menu. Perfect place for lunch in the city.

Definitely worth the time to navigate the lanes and back streets of Melbourne to find Brick Lane... the little hum happening in there is welcoming, like you've found your little home corner for an hour... or two!! Staff are super helpful and welcoming, food was top notch, chefs were upbeat and we were loving it all :D. Part of a gorgeous inner city laneway that has been maintained and loved by residents and businesses alike... there should be more of this around - - the world - - <3 <3

Outstanding Sunday breakfast. An interesting menu and the food was superb. Good, professional and friendly service in a cafe with character and a positive vibe. Highly recommended.

Great to have the QR codes on the table in lieu of a menu - good work in helping reduce the spread of COVID!

I love this little laneway and all the cafes. First time to brick lane and I will definitely be back. Food and service were both great - but we were sitting near the front door and it was open so a bit cold. Otherwise highly reccommend!

Great food, attentive service. It is a busy, cosy place which means that it can be very noisy. Not the place for a quiet chat but great place to catch up and laugh lots!

While the service staff were friendly, the two of the coffees were not ordered, then were rushed at the end and could not be properly enjoyed.

Felt rushed to order and finish up, unlike other cafes. Food was good, so if you're a quick eater, you should def go for it

Lovely place for lunch. Lamb salad was tasty again but did have a few more fatty bits than I've had in the past. Only other thing for improvement would be that the big take was too big for a group of 5, so it was hard to hear each other across the table. Otherwise, great experience again an we'll be back.

Would be a perfect score if you had more bathroom facilities as our group spent most of our time waiting to use the bathroom.

Numerous Vegetarian choices on menu. Sunday 10am was very noisy and table was too large so we couldn't hear each other talk. I was asked to get up and make room for pram to go past. Very good service from woman waiting on our table, the food was good but the bread was not toasted enough & the poached eggs were slightly overdone. The serving sizes were average. After about 90 minutes we were gently reminded that there were people waiting so we left.
