eighty/twenty

great early morning coffee. lunch is quite a treat withgoodfood & selection - and love the outdoor seating. friendly staff.

ordered the avocado on toast. got one eighth of an avo on dry toast served with a whole punnet of tomatoes. very tart. they don't do scrambled eggs. the onlygoodthing was their breakfast juice. overall more like twenty (edible food)/eighty (inedible).

the corner spot in now-bustling braddon and outdoor seating is a big draw. the various fruit/vegetable/muesli dishes seem most popular and withgoodreason by the looks of them, but i went further with the "mex eggs", nice eggs over vege cakes and a bunch of other stuff. pleasant but no chilli or much else in the way of seasoning so i don't know where they got the name from, and $21 is a bit much for the size and content. the coffee's ok, nothing special but at least they haven't followed canberra's recent trend of cold and weak coffee.

comfy cafe with lovely interiors. great location in braddon. not a huge place, so i imagine could be hard to get a table. coffee was just okay.goodchoice on the menu, a lot of healthy options. i had the peas and smashed avocado. it was well presented, colourful and agoodserving size. it was enjoyable, but not particularly memorable. i think it would have been better if the dish was hotter, and it could do with more seasoning. all the dishes are presented very nicely. service was quick and friendly.

lovely breakfast meal, i had breakfast wrap. smoked bacon, egg, red kidney beans, roasted capsicum, grilled tomato, spinach, parsley & relish. crunch bowl. acai, banana, cacao, peanut butter & almond milk topped with banana, granola, cacao nibs, crushed almonds & honey and some shakies.goodplace to have a breakfast

really nice spot for breakfast on a sunny morning. plenty of seating outside under the trees, sufficiently removed from the lonsdale street traffic. 80/20 has a limited breakfast menu but offers something for every taste. the coffee isgoodand there's agoodrange of healthy, delicious smoothies on offer.

always agoodexperience here :) love the decor and the cheeky philosophy. i had the salmon and greens: interesting concept, it was like having lunch for breakfast! the salmon was grilled to perfection with gorgeous crispy skin and inklings of chilli throughout the wholesome greens. my friend had the smashed peas and avocado, which is her favourite. and they were open at 7am, for crazies like us! haha :)

quite a limited menu, but what they do is beautifully presented with fresh ingredients. in agoodlocation with plenty of seating inside and out.

fresh, healthy food on offer. coffee wasgoodand so were the smoothies.goodvalue for money if you are looking for fresh cafe food that are light but packed full of flavour and satisfying.

all in all quite good. from my experience, it was all on the money. easy, clean,goodfood and flavors. nothing ground-breaking or worth peeling your pants about, but i got what i wanted at a reasonable price with minimal fuss and no headaches or bad bits. walked away a happy customer. will definitely return and hope to get more of the same.

i almost ate here once when it just opened, but they didn't have eftpos, and once me and my husband saw the menu, we thought that not having eftpos was agoodreason to walk out the door. the menu is too healthy for our liking. nothing fried, creamy or served with high carbs? definitely not for us.
however, i have always loved smoothies, and once i read that they have matcha flavoured smoothie, i just have to try that.
i ordered matcha immunitea smoothie and zoodles. yes i know, i went from "no healthy food for me" to picking one of the healthiest food in the menu. but i love zoodles, i used to make it at home, so i just want to know how zoodles taste like in a restaurant.
the food and smoothie came out quite quickly. i took a sip on the smoothie first and i was completely blown away. the flavour was so refreshing, even though it's a milky smoothie (but they use almond milk), but i can imagine myself drinking it in the warmer summer weather. they also have non-milky smoothie with apple juice or coconut water base.
the zoodles is definitely better than my home-made one, because this one has olives, capers and rustic eggplant that goes well together with the fresh tomato sauce. whereas i usually bought pasta sauce in a jar for my zoodles at home. what i love about the food, is that everything taste so fresh. i believe that eighty twenty picks the freshest ingredients for their food, and i can taste that.
so, even though the food in eighty twenty are healthier that my usual french toast with bacon and maple, but they definitely taste as good, and fresher. the price is also very reasonable as the portion is so big. actually, i feel that ordering both zoodles and a smoothie might be too much. next time i'll pick either food or smoothies.

nice weekend menu provided, like the mini loaf and egg & bacon bun, fruit shake will be agoodchoice to have a try with a daily vitamin supplementary

book it out for a party. we attended an evening party in 80/20 and it was wonderful!. a variety of platters were served with fresh healthy tasty treats - savoury and sweet and far more than we could eat! it is the ideal venue for a special occasion or work function if you like quality food and excellent service. we had a beautiful night, and could sit inside or out. plenty of room for everyone and dancing too if you feel inclined!
we will be back for more... thank you 80/20 for raising the standard!

love this cafe!. fresh, tasty, innovative andgoodfor you! great coffee, and nice decor. eat here and your taste buds and your body will thank you. i want to go back and try everything on the menu.

shocking! with so many exce.... shocking!
with so many excellent eating establishments in canberra, give this place a miss! the coffee wasgoodbut the breakfast was appalling!

yum!!!!. i had breakfast at 8020 over the weekend and it was just great! i had the green bowl which was a fresh and really different and interesting breakfast option. who knew a salad for breakfast could taste so good! my friend had the quinoa granola which was really yummy and was a nice light breakfast. we particularly liked the fact that the granola had no oats in it at all, just crunchy quinoa and nuts. although it was a very busy day the vibe was stillgoodand the service efficient. the only downside was that we had to wait in a cramped line to order but after receiving the food, it was well worth the wait. can't believe i haven't come here earlier, will definitely be back to try lunch!
