I was introduced to this hidden gem by a close friend and it’s safe to say my life has improved for the better. The cafe presents extremely impeccably well with high ceilings, comfortable seating, ample parking and bathes in natural sunlight. The service from the staff is warm and inviting, always with a smile. The first time i dined here I had a sticky date pudding, it was fantastic. The pudding wasn’t too sweet with a great texture. The accompanying vanilla bean icecream and butterscotch sauce was a marriage made in heaven, simply divine. I decided to make a second visit for their big breakfast and it was also delicious. Scrambled eggs along with every other element on the plate cooked to perfection. A kunefe was then ordered and that was probably the highlight of my meal. I am shocked that a local cafe can execute a kunefe to that standard. They even offered drinks on the house which is greatly appreciated in this economy. Every resident in the City of Greater Dandenong must visit this cafe. It’s operated by a humble and hard-working family. I wish the owners an extremely successful future for their business, I’ll be referring your cafe to all my friends, colleagues and family. Keep up the phenomenal work.

I occasionally come here for a study date with my friends. The tables by the booth are spacious and can fit a lot of people. The booth seats are comfortable and the bathroom is clean. Perfect space to study, doesn’t get too busy aside from lunchtime. Good service and very nice vibes. We tend to snack on wedges most of the time, the serving size is average for prices these days but they still taste good even after getting cold. Ordered a blueberry cheesecake, it was nice but personal preference, I probably wouldn’t order again, not a fav. Toastie was mid, not amazing but does the job, make sure to eat while hot!

When I'm out on the road and feel the need for a coffee, my go to is Google maps and just type, "Best Coffee Near Me" was in the area and this came up the heighest rating with the most reviews.. so why not let's give it a try. Must say I was surprised.. the front entry could do with a clean up and especially the windows, clean these and it makes a big difference.. however, the insides were a lot cleaner and were quite pleasant.. the food on offer looked very nice, I only grabbed a takeaway coffee, which came with a complimentary cookie, which is a nice touch. (Coffee was ). very polite service. Would I make a special trip back here.. not to sure on that one

Third Space Cafetorium is an absolute gem in Southeast Melbourne! This 100% halal café has an incredible vibe and ambiance, making it perfect for brunch or any occasion. We couldn’t resist ordering a variety of dishes from their extensive menu. For desserts, we had the pleasure of trying their San Sebastián cheesecake with chocolate sauce, classic Kunefe, sticky date pudding, churros with three chocolate dips, and a cast iron cookie with ice cream. Each dessert was delicious and beautifully presented. On the savoury side, their famous entree tasting platter, which includes wedges, arancini balls, and vegetable samosas with three dips, was an absolute standout.
