The Street Cafe Aspendale sits comfortably on Station Street as a welcoming spot for casual breakfast, brunch, and coffee runs. This local cafe is a regular haunt for those seeking well-executed coffee and solid, all-day breakfast options in a relaxed setting that suits both quick stops and lingering weekends.

Inside, seating is plentiful and light-filled, with additional outdoor spots that invite you to soak up the neighborhood’s quiet, coastal vibe. It’s the kind of place you’ll find locals — from solo coffee sippers to families — taking their time over a flat white or an iced chocolate, while catching up on chat or the morning’s football banter.

The menu is straightforward but thoughtfully crafted, featuring items like zucchini fritters and a green omelette for those wanting a veggie twist, alongside more classic options such as pancakes, eggs benedict, and ham & cheese toasties. Portions feel generous and fresh, supporting a variety of tastes whether you're after something light or more filling. There’s also a small kids’ menu, which makes it easy for families to visit without hassle.

Staff here are a central part of the experience — they remember regular orders and engage easily, creating a down-to-earth atmosphere that feels more like dropping by a friend’s place than a typical commercial cafe. Special moments, like spontaneous birthday celebrations, show how the team fosters a sense of community.

The Street Cafe functions well for different rhythms: a calm weekday morning coffee, a low-key weekend brunch, or a casual family gathering. The backyard area, shared with pet owners, adds to the welcoming tone and makes it clear this spot is integrated into local daily life.

Expect friendly, patient service, fresh and straightforward food, and coffee that hits the mark no matter who’s behind the bar. Arriving mid-morning or early afternoon lets you catch the cafe when it’s buzzing just enough to feel lively without overwhelming the relaxed pace.

We absolutely love this gorgeous local cafe! Definitely the best cafe in Aspendale. My husband gets coffee here every morning and they’re always up for a chat and friendly banter about the football! Coffee is always great - no matter who makes it! Every single staff member is super friendly and remembers our coffee order! We’re also obsessed with the chilli scramble! It’s the type of cafe, that if you ever leave the area - you’ll genuinely miss the staff, coffee and the service!

Local family business that not only delivers a great product but also great service. Every time I visit with my son they are patient when he is making his order. The staff behind the counter are great communicators. The food on site is fresh and clean. Plenty of seating inside and out. Any friends that visit from overseas are taken here to appreciate what a cafe experience should be.

I started off my day with an unforgettable breakfast experience at The street cafe this morning! The customer service was top-notch - the staff were super friendly, attentive, and made us feel like family. The FOOD was absolutely AMAZING!. The best part was when the whole cafe sang happy birthday for my sis. It was such a lovely touch that made her birthday celebration truly unforgettable. Special thanks to the entire team for making our morning so memorable. You guys are the best! If you're looking for a cafe that serves incredible food with a side of warm hospitality, this is the place. Highly recommend this place ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Came here today last minute on Father’s Day and they were more than happy to accomodate our group of 11. The service was absolutely lovely. The young lady serving us was happy and so friendly! The coffee was delicious. The kids had pancakes and they were yum! I had a simple scrambled eggs on sourdough toast and hands down the best scrambled eggs I’ve had! So happy we came across this cafe :) definitely will be back when we’re in the area. Thanks guys :)

Had an amazing experience this evening with Nick and the Legends at the Street Cafe. Happy and friendly staff greeted us with smiles and laughs. We were able to able to sit down and watch the footy, enjoy some drinks and amazing food. Just a quick bike ride for us, so looking forward to coming for breakfast tomorrow as well!
