After searching places to eat for breakfast I came because of the reviews online, what an amazing job breakfast I had corn cakes with poached eggs spinach on sourdough, reasonable prices great servings, peaceful atmosphere and great shop front for watching passer byers. Definitely can't wait to visit again soon and try the lunch menu!

Have had a few lunches here, the staff are friendly, the coffee good and the macaroons are a treat. We usually share a lunch between two and that's plenty...usually a toasted sandwich. I think because it's hidden down a side street, that's what makes it a favourite for us as it's always busy but with a regular crowd.

I have lived in Geelong for around one year and have been rather disappointed with the local food and coffee culture. I have found a few places around town that are pretty decent for a coffee and cake, but the other day I stumbled across the james street bakery and cafe and now I will not be going anywhere else!...

Dropped in here by chance and was very pleasantly surprised. The staff was very attentive and the kitchen team knows its job. Love the interior and the calm atmosphere. There is a free WiFi, just ask for the password :)
