friendly service, good atmosphere. a greatplacefor brunch.

⁣yesterday i went to get food from a brunchplacefor the first time ever since quarantine!! i’m so glad we stopped by @cafe_go when we visited geelong. ⠀
it’s been a while since i rated aplace🤩⠀
food: 4.3/5 ⠀
service: 4/5⠀
ambience: n/a even though we couldn’t stay to eat, i walked through the cafe to use their restroom and i was so impressed with their interior!
overall a 5/5. hands down the best panini ive ever had
⠀
definitely worth a visit if you ever visit geelong!! ⠀

beautiful, cute cafe very near the beach. the first impression when we walked in thisplaceon a saturday morning was it’s just a cute, normal cafe. but when u entered the courtyard at the back, it was like u walked in a different world. an open, green spacious space with vintage, arty little decorations. immediately it made us feel welcome and homey. the coffee was great, ordered a mocha for myself and chai latte for my hubby. chai latte got a very subtle yet distinctive smell. coffee was rich and creamy. they got a rather small menu but have something for everyone. they got vegan, meat lover and even children dishes.
ordered a steak sandwich which came in really yummy. the only down is the bread was a bit hard to bite in. my hubby and cousin try the paninis with pork belly and pulled lamb. the filling were quite interesting. the pulled lamb one has a lot of spice in it, so be aware if u’re not a big fan of spice. the pork belly was nice and def a crowd pleaser. if only the ciabatta was a bit softer, it’d be perfect.
we found the price is very reasonable compared to melbourne. food came out quickly and service was friendly although u do have to seat yourself. im not sure if it’s a normal thing in geelong.

grabbed a toasted sandwich here for lunch today. i had ham and cheese on sourdough and it was really good. great bread.

the staff were friendly enough and i'm definitely going back for a coffee as thisplacewas rockin, and that was after lunch lol

good selection of cakes and slices ... yummm hahaha i'll be back!

down to earth complete with a singing barista. theplacewas packed for lunch and at first glance the cafe looks small but there were lots of tables out back. lovely fireplace adds ambience. they food was homely and healthy. the coffee and cake was also fantastic. it's worth a visit if you looking for something different for lunch.

best thing about thisplaceis the extensive menu that has something for everyone. sometimes their service can be a little slow however it is generally a good all rounder.

hi! we have been going to go for some time and recommend it. great to pop in for a fresh salad or sandwich in between appointments during the day. we have also been here for breakfast which is just as good on the weekend sitting out the back. theplaceand the staff could be considered a little alternative but it is well matched and service is great. nice when the open fire is going in winter but it does fill up inside due to small limited seating, plenty of seats outside. average cost for a trendy cafe in geelong.

thought thisplacelooked interesting last time we were in geelong, so made a point of calling past for lunch today. it's clearly very popular and packed! not the most pram friendly venue, but a lot of interesting decor going on and the courtyard area is great.

everyone enjoyed their food - i got the save me (their big breakfast), and while it wasn't cheap, everything in it was perfectly cooked. one of the better executions on a typical big breakfast that i have tried. iced coffees were also very good. service was varied - one of the staff members seemed friendly, the other did not. but the food and drink came out quite quickly which was great as we had an appointment to get to.

been here a few times recently. food and coffee was good but service could be better. was served raw egg in a hot dish and the first waitress was extremely apologetic about the completely raw egg. we asked for the replacement to come without egg instead. replacement dish was brought out by a second waitress who was extremely rude and says 'next time let us know when youplaceyour order that you don't want egg in your dish', we let her know that the initial serve was raw and we had to send it back ! she repeated that statement, somehow making their error, now seem like our fault! i note reviews here state 'friendly service' but this must only be for a select crowd. the customer is always right.

at this present time cafe go is my favorite cafe in geelong.  this is mostly due to the fantastic atmosphere and beautiful outdoor and well sheltered beer garden.  coffee is always good and the selection of food is great.  i have always had a good meal here and its very central so a greatplaceto meet for work or play.
it would be great if this cafe was open on sunday as well.

i wouldn't say it's fast service but the staff are nice. thankfully the food and coffee is excellent and makes thisplaceworth it. i would like to try the outdoor area when it's warmer.

cute cafe with great decor. love the paintings and fireplace. cleanplacewith ample space and good service. food was acceptable. had the brekky roll which was yummy. presentation was a little too simple for a cafe setting. eggs on toast was average with no presentation at all... literally eggs on toast. chai latte was bland. cute to have honey but not good enough. coffee was average. nothing too special about it.

lovely. thisplaceis always lovely. the interior is cute, i love the courtyard area too. food is always yummy accompanied by friendly service.

in what would have been a long dull day found thisplacefor a spot of lunch and it made my day. had the pork belly panini for lunch, awesome and finished with really good flat white and epic sour cream chocolate brownie. venue really fresh. thank you!

fave cafe. have been here a number of times and always had good meals and good coffee. love the ambience of the courtyard area. aplacei take visitors if they are in town long enough.
