The Station House Food and Drinks

I recently discovered this gem located across from the train station. The exterior may be a bit unassuming, but the food inside is top-notch. The menu is small yet filled with innovative and delicious options. I tried the vine sandwich, thick cut beef with sauerkraut and cheese, perfectly roasted crispy calamari, and the excellent roasted tofu with king prawns. Everything was amazing. They also serve good coffee, have friendly staff, and parking is convenient. Do yourself a favor and treat yourself to a delicious breakfast or lunch here.

During our visit to Melbourne, my daughter and I had lunch at Black Alchemy in Blackburn. It was our first time there and we were very impressed. The menu had a wide variety of options and all of the meals we tried were excellent. They even offer a breakfast menu during lunchtime. The service was top-notch and we will definitely be returning in the future.

This restaurant serves the most overpriced Smashed Avocado I've ever had! The portion of avocado was meager and seemed almost spoiled, paired with a measly piece of toast and three poorly sliced cherry tomatoes. The feta was served as a small cube, and the lemon wedge was filled with seeds, making it seem old. The "dukkah" topping was actually just crushed raw peanuts, not authentic dukkah. The coffee was decent, but the staff seemed too preoccupied to properly attend to customers.

Dropped in for a quiet coffee, found the cafe busy, but not to noisy that I could not enjoy my coffee. Lots of chatter at the back of the cafe. The front was quiet for those who wanted peace and quiet. Good Service and food...offered for all.

Many choices of food and drinks. Friendly staff and plenty of space in the indoor and outdoor areas. Prices are normal for the area.
