Good but a bit too salty

Very good jaffles, several options, was hard to make a choice! Went for the avocado-vegemite. It was really good but too salty. The vegemite being very salty itself the additional salt on top of the jaffle was a bit too much.
A tiny bit disappointed about the “jaffle” though, I thought it would have been some sort of vegan waffle where it’s actually just a piece of bread, folded and toasted in a particular way.
But other than that it’s more than fair for a quick lunch or even breakie

Pros: Several choices sweet or salted, Very lovely staff

Cons: Just bread, not a vegan waffle, Too salty (at least for the order I made)

Great Jaffle

I eat from here at least twice a month if not more. You can call ahead and they will make your jaffles so you don't have to wait in queue

Pros: Everything

Cons: Call ahead it can be busy during lunch time

Great jaffles!

The 1st time a friend tried to introduce me to jaffles at another place in Collingwood, it was a bit of a disaster. So when she heard about this place and tried it herself, she told me "Yep, that's the one! Finally proper jaffles!".
So I tried it, and was happy with the result. I had the Avo+Vegemite and Mexican beans, it was really good. It reminded me a bit of the croque-monsieur of my childhood, but slightly different, and all vegan.

It's fairly priced, but given the fact there's hardly anywhere to sit, it's probably better for take away. I hope that it will be successful enough for them to open something a bit bigger.

Pros: Tasty jaffles, Good prices

Cons: Only 4 seats

Comfort food

Laneway location. I had one of the special jaffles, the one with chickn, gravy and cheeze, $9. The chicken is shredded jackfruit and good-tasting. It was served piping hot and was satisfyingly like a grilled-cheese sandwich. I brought away a piece of good carrot cake with icing, $5. Next time I had the mushroom-basil-spinach-mozzarella jaffle, good too, $8.

Pros: all vegan, comfort food

Lovely laneway coffee spot

We had a soy mocha, a mushroom drink with macadamia mylk, a vegan lamington and a vegan melting moment. The mocha and melting moment were delicious and the lamington was good. The mushroom based drink wasn't my thing, but I presume it's how it's meant to be and some people are keen on it, just not a flavour I'm going to seek out.
The person who served us was lovely and helpful and even though there are only a few stools at a little bench outside, there was space available when we arrived. I really enjoyed sitting in the laneway drinking coffee, and it seems a typically Melbourne thing to do.... I think I'll take visitors with me for coffee there for a very Melbourne experience. Even though the seating is outdoors, there is a shade/rain cover overhead so if it were raining I think coffee drinkers could stay dry...
Bring a keep cup if you're having takeaway to get a discount (and look after the environment).

cute little place

It’s a cute little place with 4-5 seats, so it’s not actually meant for long stays.. nevertheless the jaffles (the only thing I’ve tried so far) are soo good and the whole place is simply adorable... love this place!
