bawa Cafe Hawthorn - Melbourne

A group of friends and I visited Bawa the morning after a friends 30th and it was just what I needed. I ordered the Smashed Avocado with a side of crispy bacon and loved it. It was a good serving size and the bacon was cooked just how I like it. I love when smashed avo comes with beetroot hummus, it just tops the dish off.

Quickly went into this cafe for a takeaway coffee (second coffee of the day). Noticed they had three sizes which was great, I went for the medium which was the perfect size and I selected a skinny cappuccino. The coffee was hot, tasted delicious and gave me the the caffeine hit I needed! Would love to return back to this cafe to try out their food menu.

Lovely cafe, enough space, enjoyed time sitting there and read something. Also, not hard to find a parking spot along the street.<br/

Modern and trendy. Had the Wagyu burger and chips for breakfast from their all day lunch menu. Wait staff noticed the intense sun rays blinding us and proactively turned the blinds down. Service was friendly and prompt. Soy latte could not be better. Bawa you absolutely slayed it.

Will come back for:<br/ Pretty in Pink (Juice)<br/ Ricotta Gnocci<br/ French toast<br/ <br/ The space was warm and inviting. Staff were attentive, friendly and efficient. The juices were deliciously fresh and you just felt great drinking them. We particularly love the ricotta gnocci (light as a pillow with a great tasting tomato base sauce) as well as the French toast (fresh fruits, lightly roasted brioche bread, although they should leave the star anise off the dish the next time). The eggs benedict was good but had too much different ingredients on it that I felt didn’t really add too much to it. A lovely breakfast all the same and we shall be back!
