Divini Pastry earns consistent five-star praise for its specialty coffee, freshly baked pastries, and relaxed setting. The roasted genmaicha and matcha lattes, homemade biscotti, croffles, and panini draw regulars seeking quality brunch and an inviting space to linger.
Staff greet visitors warmly and will accommodate requests like table reservations. The Chicken Bolognese Pasta Pie and croissants showcase creative execution. Natural light, gentle aesthetics, and cosy design make it a standout destination for both solo coffee runs and unhurried meals with family.
Ngong Dog Dog divides opinion sharply. Two-thirds of visits praise the affectionate dogs, clean space, and friendly staff. However, one-quarter report overwhelming odor, unsanitary conditions, loose dogs, and staff indifference when cleanup fails. Animal welfare concerns and chaotic management emerge in negative reviews; positive visitors see a well-run hangout for dog lovers.
Starman9 draws repeat visits for its moody interior, excellent specialty coffee (their Melbourne hot long black gets specific praise), and a genuinely relaxed vibe that suits solo work or group hangouts. Staff customize dishes freely, the crozza pastries are hit-or-miss with savoury fillings, and one recent complaint flagged upstairs cooling failing-worth checking before a hot-weather visit.
Planty Of Joy draws regulars for its green-heavy decor, pet welcome, and spacious layout perfect for relaxation or photos. Coffee and food quality swing unpredictably; plant care and freshness standards falter, leaving reviewers questioning whether ambience alone justifies a return visit.
