The waffles are good, but not so much the coffee? Nice place to go and have a hot chocolate during freezing Melbourne winters. Kids will love this place

At $10 a pop for a reheated supermarket waffle I would expect some strawberries but alas Max Brenner has been hit by the strawberrie drought that the rest of Melnourne seems to be surviving. I should have gone to Woolies or Coles for the waffle, they have plenty of strawberries. But if the menu wasn't bad enough forgetting our food... More

Similar to Koko black, but serves a wider range of drinks including varied coffee and also other snacks. Like to be there in winter. Must try the one with chocolate puff in the drink. So good!!!

Love it here, but have to keep my visits far between because it is too easy to overindulge! Try their banana frappe, it is amazing, but enough to split between two... Their waffles are fantastic too! Not both in one sitting though!

It is unpretentious, but doesn't off much other than lower grade, overly sugary and overpriced for the quality of the ingredients. I'm happy to pay when the quality is there, but... More

Very ordinary in every way. Real lowest common denominator fast food style stuff. I don't think anything is made on site. This place just doesn't stand up to comparison to other chocolate houses.
