The Drop In Cafe

I adore this coffee shop. I come here often; it has a great atmosphere. The owner and staff are lovely and always customer focused. It is never a problem to change the menu items to accommodate each customer. The best frothy hot chocolates and homemade cakes. They have earned a five-star rating from me for everything they offer.

A hidden gem in Boronia! From the moment you walk into the Drop In cafe, you know you are stepping into somewhere different. The decorative pieces are a combination of kitsch, whimsical, retro, classical with lashings of pop culture moments. Each trinket and piece of serving ware 'shouldn't' go together, but they do. It may be mismatched, but it's cohesive. We were treated to a high tea for two. For the price point, this was incredibly good value. The high tea platter maintains its traditional fare but with added twists. I understand that menu items vary based on what's in stock, which means there is innovation. It would be unfair to specify what I did have, because you might not get them the next time. The tea selection however, is consistent and extensive. As mentioned, the servingware is quite the treat. I also took home a vanilla slice for my friend's parents and they loved it. Creamy vanilla filling, flaky pastry. One of the better vanilla slices they've had. I wasn't expecting to enjoy the Drop In as much as I did, but it's definitely worth a visit. In an food scene where High Tea can get feel dated, the Drop In stands out.

Cute cafe, hidden gem for those who like bygone days. Full of retro memorabilia and good music. Staff lovely. Food could have been bit better. My toast was burnt and a banana milkshake had little banana in it, but we did order 15 mins before closing so that may have been why. Will go again and see if it is the same or not. A lovely chilled vibe.

Googled this place because is near Tim Neville Arboretum. The cafe is a little gem. Friendly staff and beautiful crepes.We will definitely go again

Today's was 1degree in morning and although sunny day, very cold, I "Dropped in" to this Cafe. Was met with good service, pleasant atmosphere and nice Flat white and a Nachos- soup, mex seasoning. Was yummy, enjoyed it. Highly recommend.

A stunning little gem hidden away amongst the bustle of Boronia. Transport to a Mad Hatter's tea party aesthetic the moment you walk in the door, with a delicious selection of cakes and drinks. Would highly recommend for a quick bite or even for a meal.
