Without a doubt, one of the best cafes in Melbourne. This little side street gem offers comfortable indoor and outdoor seating with a buzzing, yet, peaceful atmosphere.
Enjoyed poached eggs with hollandaise, chilli scrambled eggs, 👌🏽and 2 amazing coffees. A mocha and a long black. Outstanding, attentive service and a lovely guy at the end checking in on us making sure it was all ok.
They deserve 10 Stars. 🌟 Will visit again. Highly recommend.❤️

Tucked away off the main drag in Ivanhoe is this hidden but popular gem. Pinkie Cafe has quality offerings in both breakfast options and hot beverages. Weekends tends to get busy but the staff are very attentive and accommodating.

We recently visited Pinkie Café in Ivanhoe and were thoroughly impressed! The atmosphere is cozy and inviting, with a cool mix of pink tones, timber furniture, and hanging greenery. The staff were super friendly and made our day with their kindness and amazing service, and the café was impeccably clean and well-presented.
The food was exceptional—definitely worth the visit. I had the açaí bowl, which was fresh and delicious, and the shrooms on toast were crispy perfection. The coffee was top-notch, and I loved the variety of meals and drinks available, including some amazing weekend-only specials.
Here’s what we had:
🍞 Shrooms on Toast $23 – Absolutely amazing! Perfectly seasoned mushrooms on toast—definitely a standout.
🍇 Açaí Bowl $21 – Refreshing and packed with fresh fruits, peanut butter, and shaved coconut.
🥒 Zucchini and Corn Fritters $22.50 with extra smoked salmon $8 – Perfectly golden, and full of flavor. A great option for something savory.
Perfect spot for a relaxed brunch or coffee break. Highly recommend!

This cafe serves my favourite açaí bowl! The flavours are always fresh and well-balanced, making it a perfect treat. The atmosphere is really nice and the staff are always friendly, which makes the experience even better. There’s also a shaded outdoor area that’s dog-friendly, which is a big plus. Pinkie is a great cafe to relax and enjoy a good meal with friends or a loved one.

We got a really tasty meal here! The portion sizes were huge and filled with flavour. The pancakes looked amazing but wanted more sauce as they were a bit dry. The pinkie hash was sooo delicious but needs a sauce with it as it is a bit plain on its own. The bowl was massive and super tasty! The juices were refreshing as well.
