Grain Store

Went for Saturday brunch. Staff weren’t very helpful about the table situation when we first arrived / were in the queue. One waiter just ignored my question about availability and said ‘he didn’t deal with that’ then walked off. They then said it was full, even though there were 6 seats outside not being used. I asked about the spare seats and they said they were booked. Then 2 mins later came back and said actually they weren’t booked and yes we could have the table 😂 Once we did get a table, it was great service and the food was yum!

This place has been in our list for a while, and so we decided one weekend to go for breakfast. It was pretty much packed and we were asked if we had any booking, which we didn't. The staff was kind enough to accommodate us, and asked us to wait for around 10-15min till a table is available. We were finally seated, and a friendly staff took our orders and fetched us the coffee. We ordered the Salmon Omelette, served with house cured salmon, green goddess avocado, lemon ricotta, over a toasted focaccia; and the Blue Swimmer Crab Chilli Scrambled Eggs, served with chilli caramel, over croissant and aioli. Both were perfectly cooked, and just loved them! Definitely coming back to this place, and this time we will book in advance :)

Ordered onion rings- burnt and cold Creamy mushrooms- watery mushrooms and had too much vinegar. -paid 75 dollars for two coffee and two meals. So not worth the price. So angry that I ruined important day, paid expensive money but still had to say sorry for the quality of the food as a person who said lets try this place. Price like a fancy place, looks fancy tastes bad

Ordered their Steak and it was pretty good and well portioned, although taste-wise I'm not too used to having coriander in my steaks The staff were absolutely lovely and welcoming! The price range is a bit on the high side for the lunch menu. However, I'm looking forward to coming back for the breakfast menu (before 12pm) in the future, it sounded pretty good!

Food is great and staff very friendly! Great cafe to visit when in Melb CBD

The shop is always busy so recommend make a reservation before coming. The drink is so so. As simple as matcha latte but the taste is bland The menu is varied however be clever in choosing. My friend ordered lobster benedict but the dish smelled very fishy and the combination of eggs, lobster and salad is very weird. (Hardware societe has a better version of lobster benedict) I ordered barramundi with crispy prawns and I was disappointed cuz the food did not match the photos on menu. The prawns were school prawns 😒 this one is not that bad but a bit salty and lack the taste of toast or buns. I think the shop is overestimated and especially, the surcharge is 12% on weekend and I paid $85 and still hungry 😐

To say this cafe is my favourite Cafe in Melbourne is a great understatement! Mel and the team make the Cafe feel more like a second home and foster such a welcoming and friendly atmosphere. The food is genuinely amazing and you can taste the passion and creativity in every bite, though this sentiment bares some biased the steak sandwich is easily the best Melbourne and the lobster Benedict will speak for its self.

AMAZING food! Great service and so quick, perfect place for a good weekend brunch x

Nice spot in CBD, terrific food. Excellent customer service. The waitress always check that we were having a good experience.

Definitely recommend coming here for breakfast or brunch! Great atmosphere, the staff is friendly and on point. Even at the busiest times of the weekend the order came out quickly! The food is absolutely delicious. It was well worth the 15 minute wait (they said it would be 30 minutes). Made the mistake yesterday to leave and go to a nearby venue and out of the two this is the best pick!
