Other published opinions
The Age Cheap Eats 2009 "Lightning service, wide-awake red decor, top coffee and a spot opposite the train station Buffalo is a commuter's dream"
The Age Cheap Eats 2007 "There's not a vast selection on offer, but everything's done exceedingly well at Buffalo. Cheery staff step deftly around the small bright space, dispensing skilfully brewed Gravity coffee and simple but reliable tucker."
The Age Cheap Eats 2005 ""
The Age, Sunday Life, 18/1/04, Dani Valent,'This brand new cafe is just around the corner from the main shopping drag, opposite the railway station. It's tiny with baby banquettes and op-shop plates for decoration. The menu is restricted to pannins, cakes, juice and coffee. Rushed commuters can order coffee by SMS-call in to pick up an instruction card.'

Chez Olivier Victoria
Edna's Place Victoria
The Globe Cafe Victoria
For Australian cafe food in the funky end of Chapel St the Globe Cafe is the place to go. Good flavour balance in the well cooked dishes.
Las Chicas Victoria
A daytime cafe under the Balaclava railway station with a very creative menu. Courtyard at rear and standard prices.
Little Captain Victoria
Oskawhyte Victoria
Oskawhyte is indeed white. This is a place for ladies who shop - seriously. Good neighbourly feeling and super-fast service.
Rose Street Gallery Victoria
The fit-out of this Victorian building is so beautiful it's almost edible. Smart south of the river cafe fare

Standard (read creative), but high-quality fare available to eat in or take away at this eclectically decorated cafe and produce store.
Treat Victoria
Turtle Bean Cafe Victoria
Wall Two 80 Victoria
Wall Two 80 has spawned a generation of 'hole-in-the-wall' cafes. It's well on its way to becoming a Melbourne coffee drinking institution.
