Reviews for Cafe Melba on Vulcan

A lovely quaint cafe on Vulcan Lane. We arrived a little pressed for time (a show to get to), greeted by the nicest of staff. Ordered cold drinks and the honey chicken salad and mentioned it was to share. Our meal arrived a few moments later on not one, but two plates. The waiter admitted he took the liberty of splitting our meal for us. Well, what a lovely liberty to have taken – a very nice touch!
The salad was delicious, the service great. A lovely find!

I was on holiday and the emphasis of this place is business and suits and ties .I did not want to hear the consistant buzz of real estate talk . Not a private place to talk .Could have worked on deals I over heard and made a few bucks .Yeah , over hear conversations and use that info , it is a great place for that . Coffee was rateable 2 out a 5 don’t know why people drink it . Food good but quiet expensive . Staff snooty unlike Melbourne . I cannot see why people would want to spend their lunch hour in a business canteen . Very sterile , the staff smile but there is know rap pore or interaction with customers .

The coffee is tight and so are the jeans. Great feel to the place, almost as if you’re in Melbourne. Good food and good service. Price wise, it’s on the high side. I do wish more cafe’s would utilise the space within the city a lot more. Great place to escape on a cold day, where it’s snug and warm. I could be giving away my secret hideaway, but I don’t think they’ll mind that much.

Good location, good food, friendly staff and reasonable price. The risotto that I ordered had some tender chicken strips and tasty sun-dried tomato to go with it. The place is a bit small but it was fine for a quick afternoon bite with friends.

Wow another Melba like in Takapuna, except in CITY !! XD food and service is almost innevatable *super cool* while food and coffee taste as good as every, wide variety of breakfast menu and also lunch of coarse, the only bad thing about it is that the toast is still a bit hard>< though a very satisfied customer
