After checking out the Reverence Hotel on Midweek night, nosotros returned to the due west the next morning time for breakfast at Reverence Specialty Coffee & Tea (no relation). As yous mightiness guess, they accept their brewed beverages quite seriously alongside espressos as well as pour-overs, unmarried origins, invitee roasters as well as 3 tiers of tea prepared inwards temperature-controlled conditions.
There's also a breakfast as well as luncheon menu. The condensed summertime version starts alongside design-your-own eggs as well as sides, as well as thence there's a brace of fancied-up avocado on toast dishes as well as on the sweeter side, muesli, banana breadstuff as well as French toast. The carte promises that the kitchen "will attempt to adjust your dietary requirements" but they reserve their correct to "politely reject carte changes". There's surcharged gluten-free breadstuff as well as 1 guaranteed vegan alternative on query - on this hateful solar daytime it was the corn cakes (which contained gluten).
Michael's poached eggs ($9) came alongside an inch-thick unwieldy spell of toast, mushrooms (+$3) as well as beans (+$4). While these were OK, the presentation as well as vibrancy of flavor didn't agree what he's come upward to await from Melbourne brunch scene.
I fared improve alongside the brioche French toast ($15). It was thick as well as eggy - near custardy - teamed alongside slightly-too-firm nectarine slices, a scoop of ricotta as well as a glug of caramel sauce.
Our meals were pleasant if non memorable but nosotros marker the cafe higher on atmosphere. It's elementary as well as spacious as well as to our eye, accessible. The staff were cheery as well as helpful as well as patient; nosotros didn't experience hurried along at whatever stage. That's for certain the best means to meditate over 1 of their specialty brews.
