We had a good brunch here! The quality of the food is good. The cafe was recently renovated and I loved the modern style they chose to adopt. The location is also perfect, just next to the royal botanic garden. The staff was friendly. The toilet wasn’t that clean and it’s hidden behind the kitchen.

Came for Mother’s Day and don’t remember it being a bad experience but also nothing special. Food was just typical brunch food but what I did like was the amazing service and the presentation of the food which was lights out. Close to being a 5 star but just lacked the flavour a bit.

Small menu, and a little pricey but worth it - granola and pastrami benedict were fantastic, with quality ingredients. Great if you want something a little different and a really good coffee.

I had an incredible brunch at The Kettle Black! The burrata was absolutely delicious, so fresh, creamy, and perfectly paired with the other ingredients. The chilli scrambled eggs were just as impressive, fluffy, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. And to top it all off, the coffee was excellent. I’ll definitely be coming back!

Great breakfast/brunch stop! Ordered the Pink watermelon, apple and mint beverage with the warm salad. It was delicious. Fresh, with a unique but subtle flavor. Cute, terrace style within the heart of the CBD.
