MELBOURNE | Leroy’s Cafe in Newport is a community gem which has been a long-standing favourite for the last seven years. It’s had a bit of an update recently and we were invited to take a look. The café has a modern light-filled décor and really brings the outside inside, with its large outdoor area that opens to the nearby park. There is another outdoor area with a playground to entertain the kids, giving the adults time to enjoy and relax.
Leroy’s philosophy is “Good food, good coffee, good people, good vibes!” and this is exactly how we felt when we entered the café. The team were so friendly, our meals were wholesome, and we could tell that this place was really a second home for many locals. Leroy’s serves breakfast all day and has a wide selection of lunch options while the drinks menu features up fantastic coffee, has a solid wine list and for the health conscious, smoothies and fresh juices.
The menu caters for a wide range of tastes and is sourced fresh from the local markets daily. We had dessert for breakfast with the OMG WTF Nutella Waffle, and the name says it all. It’s a heavenly waffle topped with Oreo whipped cream and ice-cream. Diabetics should stay away, this one is not for the faint hearted! We also tried the Newport Hollan Daze, a signature classic that has remained a staple on the menu for years. Smashed avocado, hash browns, two poached eggs with a choice of either smoked trout or bacon, drizzled with hollandaise sauce – it’s perfect! Healthier options include a variety of salads such as the Super Salad or the Vietnamese Salad. If you’ve brought the little ones with you, there is also an extensive Little Leroy’s kids menu.
For drinks we’re big fans of the bottomless Mimosas, which are great value and perfectly compliment a lazy brunch whilst soaking up the morning sun in the spacious outdoor area.
