They have several vegan options. The coffee with soy milk was silky, strong and went down beautifully. We tried the falafel and Mexican bowl. Both of them were delicious. Only criticism is that the quinoa salad with the falafel really needed either more humus or a dressing of some type. The pickled veggies in the falafel bowl were sweet and sour, a real taste and texture sensation. Definitely going to be back to try their warm breakfast salad . The staff are fantastic, attentive and super friendly. Great place to spend a lazy Sunday morning.

Trendy large Cafe. Lots of seating inside and some outside. Great service, the young fella today was very nice and taking rhentime to explain the specials for the day. Food is AMAZING, I had the Calamari bites and slaw and chips. Hubby had the Belly Burger...pork belly and crackle !!!! Reasonably priced. If you're going through and hungry stop in. Only for breakfast and lunch. Breakky is all day, lunch starts 11:30am

Seriously good food, coffee and service! Best brunch I’ve had in a while. I ordered the “greens and avocado” and it did not disappoint. I’ll definitely be back

Lovely staff there. Had the Mushroom Mayhem, and the Arancini. Shakes are very fresh, couldn’t resist eating all the mushroom s!

We've had lunch at Finch several times and had dinner there for the first time last night. The reason we keep coming back is the quality of the food! Always consistent, well presented and with a different vibe to most cafes and restaurants. The dinner was all Gippsland produce, and I mean all of it. Meat, vegetables, wine and other ingredients. Stellar effort Finch crew. We'll be back!

We had lunch here today! We had a few allergies that staff accommodated for so graciously! Gluten free options were great! They also worked to create a new menu item for one of us who had more complex allergies. They checked on us throughout to make sure everything was yummy and well. We are so grateful for the staff & Chefs! Thank you! Have been here multiple times and not been let down!

My husband and I went for brunch and ordered the waffles, they weren't generic sweet waffles, they were actually savoury with extra bits of deliciousness in them. The chicken was crispy. The coleslaw and maple sauce was incredible. Very happy with our meals.

Beautiful cafe. Friendly and helpful staff. A menu full of gluten free options and great pairing wines too. Loved being there. Would definitely go again! Can't wait for when they open for dinners too :)
