Absolutely Exceptional — A Must-Visit in Eltham!!!!!!!!!!! Shillinglaw Café in Eltham is an absolute gem. Their "signature Brisket Burger" is, without question, the BEST in Victoria — juicy, smoky, and perfectly balanced with every bite. There’s simply no comparison anywhere else. It’s a dish that deserves its own award. If for some reason you can resist the brisket (I don’t know how you could!), the rest of their menu is equally outstanding — creative, fresh, and beautifully executed. The desserts are truly on another level — Michelin-style presentation paired with rich, indulgent flavours that leave a lasting impression. The staff are warm, genuine, and always greet you with a smile, making every visit feel like a special occasion. Whether it’s breakfast, lunch, or a weekend treat, Shillinglaw Café delivers consistently amazing food and impeccable service in a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere. A wonderful experience all around — FIVE stars aren’t enough for this Eltham favourite!

Sunday lunch: efficient, friendly staff, relaxed! And great food at reasonable prices: I love big breakfasts and theirs was one of the best I have had…. Just right with perfect poached eggs…..and the coffee: as good as it gets! Children and dog friendly - people just enjoying themselves, relaxing in the yard.

Absolutely wonderful hospitality and grazing menu for our staff Christmas party. Service was truly outstanding, and the food simply incredible!!! We absolutely loved the variety of delicious dishes and how well the team catered for people with special diets. The space was also divine—just lovely under the tree with the beautiful table setting (and an incredible cheese board!). All of the arrangements were done perfectly. We had the best day!

Today visited Shillinglaw cafe and it completely exceeded my expectations! The atmosphere is cozy and inviting, perfect for relaxing or getting some work done. The baristas are super friendly and knowledgeable, always ready to recommend the best brew based on your tastes. I ordered their signature coffee! You can tell they use high-quality beans. The baked goods are also a must-try—the croissants were buttery perfection! Whether you’re a coffee aficionado or just looking for a cozy spot to unwind, this place has it all. Can’t wait to come back!
