Arrogantly French. That's their tagline, but they've only got half of that right.
Of course, a truly arrogant cafe would not survive in Melbourne, so by elimination, they must therefore be quite french. Indeed, their decor, and their staff, would never suggest otherwise. Spread upon every available surface are posters, and maps, and signs proclaiming their 'Frenchness'.

With egg, Swiss Gruyere cheese, mushrooms and spinach, I'm fairly sure this dish can be safely classified as breakfast.

A neat little parcel that looked even more tempting when it was opened up.

My friend ordered a more substantial meal; a ham and cheese galette complete with toast, a poached egg, spinach, and tomato relish.

Ham & Cheese Galette with Poached Egg, Spinach and Tomato Relish |
I might have forgotten what this dish was called (bad blogger!) but it sure did smell and look good. I'm betting it would have tasted good too.
After fulfilling out breakfast obligations, it was of course, straight on to breakfast-dessert. An amazingly thin, simple crepe with fresh strawberries, bananas and lemon juice was all that was required.

They have an extensive selection of dessert crepes to satisfy the times when something sweeter is required, with ingredients such as chocolate, marmalade and jams, ice-cream and whipped cream. Nothing overly fancy, but all decisively tempting.
Their display at the counter was also maddeningly tempting...

Must. Resist.
Not that you should of course, in fact, you should get down to this creperie quick-smart.
