Coffeehead

From the makers of Fire chief Pizzeria, Goldilocks Cafe, The Sharing House, Taxi, SOS & 100 mile cafe comes Coffeehead, the newest addition to the growing cafe scene in Camberwell.





At 11am, Coffeehead, like every other decent Melbourne cafe, was packed. The waitress told us there would be a 10 min wait, and shortly after, we were seated at the bar.


The menu was big, as were the coffee choices. The lunch menu look delish, with options like fish tacos and pulled pork tacos (I like tacos...).


I wasn't very hungry, so opted for the porridge with poached pear, blueberries and honey. I realise that porridge itself isn't very exciting, but this one tasted like something I could have quite easily whipped up at home. There was a total of about 6 blueberries scattered on top, and at the most, 3 thin slices of a poached pear. Surely they could have been a bit more generous...

My fried egg loving friend ordered the...fried eggs. No sides, just eggs :)

Fried googies
Silky hot chocolate
They also have a variety of pastries and sweets at the front.


Variety of coffees to choose from
What is impressive is that Coffeehead serves 5 different coffee varieties for you to try. So the choice of bean is up to you. A busy, colourful, old school cafe (complete with a foosball table) in a good location (right near Camberwell station). With a bit of a spanish and mexican twist going on, next time I will definitely be ordering something different and getting around the tacos.
