Cafe Azul



346 Bridge Rd, Richmond, VIC
Date: 10.9.11

This is one of those places that calls itself a café but you can tell they would really rather be a restaurant. The tables and the dressing looks restaurant like and they’ve tried hard with their menu, but it’s still a café. And not that good of one either. Don’t get me wrong, it’s not awful, just average. There’s no table service, and while the staff were friendly, it’s a hassle getting up mid conversation to order another coffee. The food does seem nice, my friend loved her breakfast and my pumpkin muffin was divine. It was all kinds of delicious. As for the coffee, it was okay. It had a nice taste but was nothing too special. There’s nothing wrong with this place, there’s just nothing that special either.

AMBIENCE:    On a great street for cafes and eating, but doesn’t really stand out. The furniture doesn’t impress but at least the booths were comfortable. 2.5 out of 5.

SERVICE:    Friendly, and they did serve my friend a breakfast even though their breakfast time had finished. It was just damn counter service. They had enough staff on to serve. 3.5 out of 5.

COFFEE:    A little above average. Happily drank two cups, but really wasn’t blown away by the flavour. 3 out of 5.
