Comments of Federal Coffee
K.
Go-to place for brunch in the city. It is very accessible in a central location and the staff are very friendly. The coffee was yum and although the meal took some time it was well worth the wait.
J. S.
I’ve always noticed their little kiosk on the corner right next to the main entrance of H&M that serves coffee & pastries, only to realize that they have a restaurant nearby, with seats, and serves food.
So I decided to try their breakfast, and ordered the scrambled Eggs on Toast with 2 Side: salmon & avocado. It was served with relish on the side.
The eggs were nice & fluffy, and both the salmon & avocado were fresh. The only thing I didn’t like was the relish. It just didn’t go well with the food at all.
Loved their coffee and keep coming back for the coffee whenever I am in the area.
Quick & friendly service, and perfectly located overlooking Elizabeth Street.

At a beautiful location just at the corner of Bourke Street mall, this European-styled cafe will be an ideal place for some coffee/brunch after a shopping day or city visit. Abundant choices on the menu to select from. Prices are not to high for one at the heart of the CBD. We ordered a scrambled eggs on toast with smoked salmon and mushroom french tacos, both of which were satisfying. The food took a while to be served though. Above all, the service was very friendly.
N. J.
Lovely French style cafe in the heart of the city - a perfect location to take a break from shopping or people watching. Loved their salmon, coffee was great and portions quite generous too.

I've been to many cafes (ex-barista of 10 years) and thus is THE place for the best coffee in Melbourne. Friendly staff, hip cool hole in the wall concept. Great location.
Only wished it open later / more days
5/5 thank you and do not change anything!
E. T. C.
With an alfresco dining at the majestic GPO building, this is a perfect place for a brunch date with your significant others or with friends 💜 the spot is a wonderful place to take a break and enjoy delicious foods and drinks whilst watching the fast paced Melbourne go by!
We enjoyed a boozy brunch with some sparkling wine whilst we enjoyed the dishes we ordered!
🧇 FRENCH TOAST- triple cooked French toast with lavender creme anglaise, seasonal fruit & dark chocolate
🐟 POACHED SALMON- salmon filet, Yarra Valley salmon caviar, herb hollandaise, asparagus, tomato & potato salad
We absolutely loved both the dishes and the whole atmosphere just reminded us of being in Paris 😍
don't have time to sit down? Visit their takeaway kiosk where you can grab yourself a coffee, pastry or a to-go-meal. The kiosk is so picturesque and defs has that Parisienne vibe!
N. N.
Seriously great coffee! Your staff are very professional and kind came 20min before close and they served a very tasty iced coffe amazing work owners!
r. c.
Wonderful spot. You couldn't get a better spot for a coffee and snack. Sit underneath the arches of a fine old building and enjoy great service and excellent coffee (Best I have had for many a year) I had the banana toast as a snack - perfect with a coffee. Glad to have found the place. Bonus: Underground public toilets are available only meters away.
A. B.
Haven't been here since before Rona, they did a face-lift, looks cleaner and nicer, coffee is still great have no idea what the food like and frankly what kind of food you expect at the coffee cart?
One other thing, music is MUCH better now😊
J. C.
Little brunch place and coffee take away stand outside old post office H&M with plenty of outdoor seats. Love their french influenced brunch, both crab omelette and benny business are delicious.
Coffee is okay but not amazing and they are serving industry beans.
Staffs are friendly.
O.
Staff was friendly, quick service, price was reasonable, quality of coffee was good and also tempature was good.

Nice coffee, great location, friendly barista! 👌
C. b.
I love this place! My regular stop for tea , coffee and food. Their scrambled eggs are perfectly made every time . Also love their lavender French toast. Bit pricey though but still love it.
M. C.
Unfortunately this place changed owners. I miss the original. I ordered a cheese toasty and it has very little cheese!! Not worth it. I’ll come back probably cause i love sitting there but will only have coffee.
E. S.
My only stop for coffee or tea in Melbourne. The usual staff member there with the tattoos, I think Jarrod is his name, has absolute impeccable customer service skills and presses the best long black in the city. (Also the best conversation when it’s quiet).
I always bring friends there to prove how good my taste in coffee is.
G. T.
Good little coffee spot in the Old GPO, great for people watching on Bourke Street Mall.
Y. B.
The coffee is fantastic. Absolutely delious. However, the coffee order and service is attended to by a rather snubby female waitress who, I think, does not want to work there
c.
First time visiting this cafe today. Was worthy of a review.. Service was great. Coffee and granola both delicious. Will definitely go back when I'm in the city.
s. s.
I had the best breakfast!! The food was delicious and the people that work there were so lovely!! Go see them, they looked after me so well!
r. m.
Coffee is good and the coffee cups are the best. Staff is friendly. Their location is enviable.
L. I.
The coffee was great. The lady in the counter was really nice. I didn’t like the chairs and tables. They only have paper cups which I don’t like. Usually there are some street performances around the area, so you would have your cup of coffee with a live entertainment. I would recommend it.
V. A. (.
Great service, great coffee
J. C.
One of my favourite places to come for lunch. The staff are wonderful and extremely friendly. And the food is absolutely delicious!! I'm always excited to see what else they have. Plus a great cup of coffee! ☕
J. H.
Excellent place to grab a takeaway coffee as Polly & Jason effortlessly make a brew in record times. The cabinets always host a visual feast of savoury and sweet treats, but the real magic happens in the kitchen where various creations are cooked to order. There is a real focus on fresh produce and ensuring the customer is well looked after. Would highly recommend.
J. H.
Beautifully made 10/10 Melbourne coffee, the food was nothing short of a perfect. Typical Melbourne style dishes with a good choice to change and add elements. Place is located in a cute and cosy undercover narrow way just off the main street. Recommend.
H. 9.
Ordered a mocha, flat white, smashed avo and eggs on toast which was absolutely to die for. They are very generous with their avocado serving and all the produce was fresh and presented to perfection. Service was impeccable by all members of staff. Highly recommended all day breakfast stop.
G. d. r.
I would have liked to give five stars but when we arrived, the waitstaff basically ignored us and went about their business like we weren’t there. I can imagine they’d lose quite a bit of revenue this way from people waiting to be seated or trying to get a menu but then walking away after waiting for a while. It wasn’t even particularly busy. Anyway, after we were taken care of, coffee was great, menu options were wonderful, and the food was honestly very tasty. We’re visiting on holiday, but if I was from around here, this might be someplace I’d stop in frequently when I had the time. It’s a great atmosphere.
M. G.
I ordered the mushroom burger and a side of chips to it, absolutely loved it! A lot of food and it tastes really fresh and good. The staff was very nice and genuine when they helped us too, will definitely come back and I recommend it to everyone!
A. V.
Last time we came it was so good. Gorgeous pancakes, delicious bacon egg breakfast. Yesterday came back to Melbourne and to our sadness the full cafe not there. ☹️ Now I’m googling breakfast in google maps.
H. S.
Best fried chicken burger in town! Extraordinary service and fantastic staff!
Second time here and one off the staff recomended the Tuscan Meatballs. Glad she did because they were amazing. Tasted like heaven!!
A. G.
Love their staff. Great breakfast and brunch spot. Love sitting with friends and watching Melbourne go past, what a great location.
Tried the "eggs two ways" and "Spanish eggs" today. Loved it. Thanks for making our day guys.
A. S.
Food is good but won’t say the same about the service. Had to wait 20 minutes for my sandwich. Waitress didn’t offer water either.
F. P.
Good reliable cafe with fairly good food and desserts. Staff is truly amazing and super friendly which is a huge plus but it's kinda expensive and shuts bafflingly early...like 4pm they start closing which is weird being that it's in the CBD. Great for take away coffee. Seems to be a never ending parade of wedding photoshoots on weekends
H. N.
Polly (my apologies if I spell your name incorrectly) is the sweetest and friendliest barista in this city. She knows my coffee and they way I like it. Also, she always engages in conversation whether you are new or usual. The coffee is too great to pass.
L. M.
I always come back here for the food, the service, the coffee and the location! The veggie burger is out of this world! The staff is so friendly and helpful! It’s always a treat to stop by here weather you’re having lunch or just a take away coffee!
A. H.
Lovely cafe with great food and excellent service. A very good spot for people watching too
m. c.
We always go here because this place does the best homemade Carrot Cake in Melbourne, and they serve it with real cream! The coffee is great also.
V. V.
That's my favorite spot to grab a morning coffee, no matter what kind of season Melbourne shows in the day!!! Always kindly and friendly staff make my day wonderful ahead with great coffee. Highly recommended to everyone!!!
E. M. W.
Like the atmosphere so much. Have a catch up session with friends here and the coffee are amazing. The staff are very friendly and their service were great. Will defitenaly come here again.
N. S.
Fantastic brunch good coffee
k. k.
It's a nice place for brunch if ur looking for somewhere in CBD to eat. Such a great location! right at the corner of bourke street mall. The staff are so friendly. I always feel welcomed everytime i pop in for coffee and one of their delicious sandwiches. You will not regret it :)
M. H.
Lovely ambience in the arches and staff are great, but im sure it depends on who you get and what people they can hire. Food is really good. Shared a chorizo and cherry tomato pizza and a pea and ham hock soup with a friend, and a mulled wine. Was heaven. So few places you can get a good Spanish beer in Melbourne too. Fully Rate It. And i eat out 10+ meals a week.
G. F.
Great menu, friendly staff and top customer service. The food and the coffee quality are amazing. Cant wait to go there again!
S. A.
Very courteous staff, nice food. I asked for warm milk for my baby which they provided and charged me only 50c for that. I wouldn't mind paying $ 3-4 but appreciate their gesture. Good on you people 😊
M. S.
This is one of my favourite places in Melbourne! Coffee, food and service are more than spot on, I have never been disappointed! Also- the building is super beautiful and has a perfect location :)
C. R.
A shout out to the chefs, baristas, waiters, everyone who works here. I come here for my lunch breaks and at the moment, I’m pretty unhappy with life in general. Your delicious food, especially your burgers and Portuguese tarts, and the soy chais you make me give me a reason to come to work. Thanks for helping keep my spirits up. Keep doing your wonderful work :)
K. R.
Food is excellent. Staff was very attentive and seemed to bring each dish at the "perfect" time. All I have to say is great service great food.
n. j.
Great menu friendly staff
The food was amazing, lots of people and the best part is the location centre of cbd was so lovely.Hope to come here again. Personally recommend steak sandwiches and fries
J. T.
Excellent coffee and food. The kitchen sometimes closes before the cafe but they were more than happy to serve delicious toasted sandwiches just before close.
f. a.
Good coffee. And it is at good place. While you are waiting you can grab some coffee and Waite your friends or partner. But I can’t say it was best customer service. It was alright. I think it was his end of the day. That’s why. Anyway coffee was good. You should try some ! Cake and foods look good as well.
s. m.
I had a roasted veggie omelette with vanilla milkshake here for breakfast and it was made exactly as requested.
Really happy with the customer service and the staff here are very friendly.
Great place to have a breakfast!
Would definitely recommend it to my friends and family.
S. A.
Great Ambiance, staff is too professional and friendly, food taste really good with full of flavours, I enjoyed coffee as well, I would personally recommend this place who wants to hang out just for change
Thanks to all team and chefs !!!!!!
J. H.
This is a great spot in the city for coffee and food. Service is usually very friendly and quickly. It can get breezy in the cooler weather, but the outdoor heaters help to ward off the cold. Good place to take a break while on a shopping spree.
J. T.
$5.00 #soylatte
Industry beans, La Marzocco
L.
The soy latte is so good!
Whenever i passed by here, i thought i want to have a coffee in here. So here i am.
I love this mood and come again☕️
W. F.
Mocha is full of chocolate and coffee aroma but not too sweet. Carrot cake is moist and fresh. Cozy location and great for quick recharge.
A. A.
I'm here for a limited time in Melbourne and have visited many different locations for coffee. This has got to be far the best coffee in Melbourne. Staff are great and so are the owners. Thank you from UK ☺️
S. W.
Nice place to escape from hustle and bustle big city environment even tho it’s in middle of the city. Super cozy and the food is yummy. Breakfast burger is my all time favourite :))))
R. S.
Tasty food in a handy location. My coffee wasn’t amazing but overall a good spot if you’re after something easy.
A. B.
Excellent coffee. Delicious food and great service. Awesome all round.
R. F.
Tucked out of the way which creates a nice atmosphere and there is a little undercover arcade thing which is nice to wait for your coffee in. It's actually on Elizabeth St though so don't be fooled by the address on maps. Coffee was good, a bit unusual having staff waiting out the front but it worked well given the location and they were friendly enough
-.
The team here are always so friendly! The coffee is consistently amazing and they use super cute, unique cups :)
D.
Just enjoyed excellent homemade orange cake and delicious coffee. Great service with a smile. Highly recommended.
L. A.
Pretty cafe in a great location. Eggs Benny w/ halloumi was so yum. Nice coffee too
N. M.
I've been here twice now for lunch and had a great meal both times. Lovely fresh and very tasty food, best chips ever, friendly and efficient service in comfortable and stimulating surroundings. Decent pricing and right in the heart of Melbourne CBD.
Edit: recently had the best pancake breakfast in the CBD here too!
N. P.
Super quick service and the food was exactly what I needed turn my day around

The sweetest staff and amazing food!! The vegan iced coffee was the best I’ve had in CBD 👏
M. B.
A great place to stop while shopping, and I also like writing there. It is always buzzing, but usually not too busy to get a seat. Atmospheric in winter and shady in summer. The staff are friendly too.
s. k.
Staff is so nice and make you laugh when you meet, small shop feels like old movie scene. I enjoyed the coffee in cold day
M. F.
Great waitstaff and service! And the food was delicious & fresh. We’ll definitely come again.

Pricey coffee, $5 for a large (medium size at comparable coffee stand). Perhaps they charge a premium for the location at the corner of Bourke St Mall and Elizabeth St.
M. T.
Great breakfast and coffee with friendly service to match. Recommended.

(Translated) Good, strong, Vietnamese coffee. A bit too hot, as if the milk was overheated. A place with atmosphere. There are also sandwiches. Medium flat white $ 5

Dobra, mocna, wietnamska kawa. Troszkę za gorąca, jakby mleko było przegrzane. Miejsce z klimatem. Są też kanapeczki. Medium flat white $5
