This cafe serves delicious coffee and food, but what truly sets it apart is the love in the air. The staff’s affection for both guests and their dogs is heartwarming and genuine. You can feel the joy in every small interaction — from a warm greeting to a gentle pat for a furry friend. It’s more than just a cafe; it’s a space where kindness and good taste come together beautifully.
Visited this local cozy gem for a post-run solo café date. The place was buzzing with regulars coming and going, plenty of solo visitors doing their own thing, and an overall warm, welcoming atmosphere. Lots of dog traffic in the area too—perfect for dog lovers! Tried the Eggplant Parma—crumbed eggplant, marinara sauce, shredded mozzarella, and basil on a fresh bread roll ($16). Made to order, super flavorful, and exactly what I was craving. Generous portion too—the sandwich was huge! The staff have a great rapport with regulars, which speaks volumes about their hospitality. I also met the owners, Michelle and Mem, who were incredibly friendly and welcoming. A family-run business that’s only been open for just over a year, but it’s already built a strong community.Conveniently located next to Kooyong Station—definitely worth a visit! No surprise their Google reviews are glowing—such a great vibe here.
Love this place. A newly established cafe. Ticking all the boxes. Brilliant coffee Gorgeous food. Lovely and accommodating owners and staff. I had a delicious herb chicken sandwich (I’ve actually had it for 3 consecutive days it’s that good) Great fried eggplant sandwich Just about to try the Reuben sandwich. If I lived this area This would definitely be my “regular” Today’s sandwich order just delivered with a complementary Nutella croissant
This is a must visit cafe in Kooyong area. Super dog-friendly with exceptional customer service from a lovely young couple who are also pawrents of 2 huskies! Coffee and food are great as well! I would highly recommend the Katsu Sando.
Wow - what a special place. Only had a coffee (which was delish - long black with dash of milk) but food looked great. The owners have created a gorgeous haven that feels like you’re in a little spot in Europe. Their locals are obviously attached and have made this their place for a tasty brew and snacks .not from the area but highly recommend. Oh and if you’re a dog owner their Polaroid portrait can be added to the collection!
Took my mums new puppy Pookie here and it was absolutely awesome! One thing that I absolutely love is how dog friendly it is!!! There were so many polaroid pictures of all the dogs that have visited! We met the owner and he was so lovely. We had such an good conversation, the atmosphere here is just bright and bubbly. I met a regular customer and she was so bright as well, you get nothing but good vibes here The owner is so passionate and loves what it does, it is so apparent. He told us about his two beautiful huskies The food was really good and the coffee was amazeballs! They were so kind to our little Pookie and seemed genuinely interested in him which was so heart warmimg We love dog people! Pooks has his first pup cup here too which was so bloody adorable! Thank you so much for such a lovely experience!
Little Quarter is one of those places that just gets it right. - Delicious coffee and food - The owners are lovely - Dog friendly - Great atmosphere - Very reasonably priced Our dog absolutely loves them. If it were up to him, every walk would end here!!
Perfect cafe in Kooyong for your caffeine intake and a bite to eat. Great coffee (including their Espresso Spritz), delicious food (including personal favourites like the katsu sando, meatball sub or chicken and avocado sando). Friendly staff and extremely dog friendly!
