Friendly staff with great service. Food was lovely. Coffee ☕️ was slightly bitter for my taste. I feel it was just a roast that wasn’t to my taste.

This restaurant has a section in a beautiful old white house. The interior is very pleasant. We had the breakfast roll and chilli prawn scrambled eggs, plus iced black coffee and latte. Everything tasted good and the service was nice.

We hosted a bridal shower at the Albert's Table at Kettle Black. It was the perfect intimate space above the cafe. The event staff were very responsive from day one and the staff on the day were very organised and lovely! The set menu was great and they even catered for dietries! We can't thank the staff enough for letting us host the perfect event here! Look forward to visiting again soon!

The Kettle Black never disappoints. The atmosphere is relaxed and welcoming, with excellent service that makes you feel looked after from the moment you arrive. The food is consistently amazing—beautifully presented, fresh, and full of flavour. Coffee is absolutely on point, and the soulful background music perfectly complements the experience, giving the whole place a laid-back but premium vibe. A standout spot for brunch or coffee in South Melbourne. Highly recommended.

Sitting outdoors with a light breeze, excellent coffee, and a great atmosphere was the ideal way to begin the day before heading to the circuit🏎️ 🐮Beef Brisket Pastrami Benedict (AUD 26) 🐔Bang Bang Chicken Salad (AUD 26) 🧊Ice Long Black (AUD 5) 🍁Salted Maple Cold Brew (AUD 8) The Beef Brisket Pastrami Benedict was a standout, and the drinks were exceptional😌The Iced Long Black was particularly unique, using light roast beans that delivered a distinct, nutty flavor profile🌰 The Bang Bang Chicken Salad was flavorful, though the dressing was a bit heavy-handed😅 Toward the end, the saltiness became a little overpowering, so it might be worth asking for the sauce on the side if you prefer a lighter touch🤓 Highly recommend stopping by for a high-quality coffee or a relaxed brunch if you’re making your way to the Grand Prix 🏁

The Kettle Black is pretty so it hurts, in a dazzling combination of heritage and contemporaneity. Different rooms and outdoor sections offer diverse seating options, from solo to communal. The food is pretty, too. I had scrambled eggs and was impressed by the freshness and depth of flavour, although the sweet intensity of sambal was a bit hard to reconcile with shrimp and eggs in some more sambal-heavy bites. The coffee was good, the service friendly and efficient. It may not have been anything extraordinary, but the setting made it feel satisfyingly indulgent nevertheless; I left happy. A cool spot!
