Top Paddock Cafe - Richmond

Finally made it here from South Yarra! Just a quick stroll over the Yarra to eat at this deceptively large cafe, restaurant. It was busy! But they squeezed us on the bar which was fun to watch the baristas working their magic

Location : Located in such a busy street. Parking was really hard to find on a weekend. Place: Such a nice cosy place to catch up with friends though It was really busy and very loud. You really have to speak up. Service: The service was great. We were attended to really fast and we didn’t wait for long for the food. Food: Great flavours and very tasty. Good portion ! I couldn’t walk by the end of it. Price is decent Recommend: I would recommend to try this place out. It may not be for everyone. Some people like more of a quiet place but this one can be crowded.

Super grateful to live only a 10 minute walk from this gem in the city. Coffee is excellent and the food is exceptional. The dining room is large and creative with lots of spaces and options depending on your mood. Always a great vibe. Today was the chilli scramble that looks like it’s recently had spicy pork sausage added to it

I should have done this ages ago, hey. This place is a banger. I’ve had quite a few chilli scrambled eggs on toast before, but pork the sausage and quality of the Turkish bread made it. I know this place is popular, but it’s one of those ones that deserves to be, you know?

Guaranteed great coffee and great food! I’ve always been greeted nicely when I’m waiting to be seated and the service throughout is always friendly. Top Paddock is one of Melbournes BEST cafes and certainly sits at the top of my favourites list. Its always buzzing with people seated inside and out. It’s easy to drop in and get a table but I absolutely love that I also have the choice to be super organised and book ahead of time! There’s not many cafes that gives you that choice these days. One thing I do have to point out is that, it gets really really noisy when it’s busy and you’re sitting inside. The hard surfaces everywhere make it hard to have a conversation without raising your voices, even more difficult if dining with someone who is hearing impaired. But in saying that, when the weather is nice, a table outside with the surrounding lush greenery is perfect!
