Milkwood

A friend and I found this cute little cafe by accident one morning whilst strolling around East Brunswick. Milkwood is a teeny weeny eatery on Nicholson street that offers an assortment of simple and delicious breakfast & lunch treats.


The interior is plan and simple, with old-fashioned hanging plants dangling from the high ceilings. Seating is limited and spaces are small- not ideal for big groups- but noice to meet for coffee or a feed with a buddy.


Interesting options on the specials menu

 At this stage in the morning, we popped into Milkwood just for a coffee, but couldn't resist sharing the toasted pear, fig and walnut loaf with cinnamon ricotta & honey ($9). The cinnamon ricotta was so delish spread on the toast and drizzled with honey....


I'm a big fan of chai's. Powder, syrup, spice, whatever. I would like to someday bathe in a giant pool of chai milk. Milkwood delivered a top notch chai. I was that little bit more excited when the waitress delivered my chai to see it was made with the REAL chai spices...which is my favourite. It was even enough chai to have 3-4 cups!

Sorry for the chai repetition. Chai chai chai chai chai.

I think one of the best things about this cafe are the options available in the sweets cabinet. There was more yum scrum sweet options then you could poke a stick at. Everything was homemade too :)

They had samples of their homemade caramel slice on the counter and holy shit, it was incredible. I may have stolen a couple more pieces when the chick at the counter wasn't looking. A great little place to stop by for a coffee or snack- I highly recommend you try the sweets cabinet (or just steal lots of samples).
