★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I love the ambience, I love the deco, I love the food and I love the coffee, I also love the idea behind why the owner started this cafe.?
However I wouldn’t recommend the egg benny with salmon… the puree was quite sweet whereas the salmon was very salty, the two didn’t really go well in my opinion.
Though the portion of the food seemed to be reduced in my most recent visit. I’d still visit again to support the owner and the community. Overall, great cafe and great experience.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I’ve been here for years, and upon my recent return from London, I found that their salmon eggs Benedict still uphold the best taste - I’m a big fan of the rosti for the base compared to sourdough/muffins. The portion is just right for one person and all the sauces compliments. Highly recommend Crave as a spot to fix your brunch needs!

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Crave occupies a large square footage, and is decorated as if an industrial building and a hunting lodge had a baby. Lots of tables inside and out, and a very comforting vibe.
However they are ridiculously overpriced.
$21 for "French toast". It was one piece of TOASTED brioche and about 6 other elements. Why a tasteless meringue nest, a brandy snap, and a weird unflavoured gelatin cube need to be on French toast is beyond me. Had the dish tasted OK I could have overlooked the pointless frivolity on the plate. However a lightly toasted piece of bread covered in fruit sauce just doesn't cut it for me.
The filter coffee I ordered tasted sour, as if had been sitting in a pot for some time.
We were left to our own devices for quite awhile before I could flag someone to take our order, and the guy looked like he was physically pained to do so. Meanwhile servers are just chatting on the floor and looking at their phones.
I will NOT be back.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I had big hopes for this cafe, because they put the profits back into the local community but was left a little flat by the experience.
The atmosphere is great, very lively and the design features alone will keep your interest.
However, the food, although perfectly edible, was a little uninspiring. Presentation on the plate is a little dull, and the food could be easily achieved at home and probably tastier. It just wasn't special, and nothing that would seperate them from other eateries.
On the plus side the staff were attentive, but not overly, efficient and friendly.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Amazing decor and lovely staff. I have a massive sweet tooth and their French toast was the perfect thing for it. 100% will go back for more. Their smoothies are so good too!

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Not our best experience for brunch yesterday.
Food looks nice but doesn’t taste nice.
Coffee: was good
Avocado toast: for some reason avocado was sweet and creamy and the toast was hard and too crispy to cut into.
Prawn ravioli: tasted like seafood sauce with bland flavour.
Only thing tasted delicious other than the coffee was the side of grilled halloumi
Please do a taste run of your menu.
Would definitely not go again.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Food was delicious. Everything was fresh and perfectly cooked. Smokey aioli was great. Despite forgetting our drinks, it was easily remedied by one of the hosts, who was really nice and dealt with the situation professionally and kindly. Unique decor. Just a heads up that it's kinda tricky finding a parking spot if you want to dine in.
