    I had an appointment near by, wanting a coffee for the drive home I goggled coffee near me. Reading reviews of cafes I selected Steam Coffee. Certainly wasn't disappointed by the coffee or service outstanding on all counts. Highly recommend, I will certainly revisit next time in the area.

    Truly great coffee roaster, focused on great coffee first. Had an excellent magic and bought a bag of beans to take home, freshly roasted. I walked in thinking I'd order a flat white, but the moment I walked in for the first time I knew they'd do a great magic and they delivered! Very happy that I don't have to drive to another suburb just to get great beans. Need more places like this in the area.

    Johnny knows how to run a cafe and makes exceptional coffee! The fresh muffins are amazing too and his service goes a long way by having a conversation with everyone that comes through and always smiling. Highly recommend!

    If you are looking for the best coffee in the area, this is the place! I have been ordering coffee from here for a while now, and I don't think I have ever had a bad coffee. The quality is exceptional, probably one of the best coffees I have tried in Melbourne. The food is also incredible. Home made food of high quality. It doesn't matter what you order, it's going to be great. Customer service is always good. Staff is always happy when taking order and serving food.

    This place is amazing!! The vegan food is UNBEATABLE- sandwiches with the softest bread, delicious sweet treats, and incredible hot and cold drink options. Loving the 70’s/nihilistic decor, tall ceilings, and comfortable seating options, and great service to boot.
