We went for a late valentines date night and it was better than I ever could’ve expected. I am huge on good customer service and for the owner to be so hands on and friendly was the cherry on top.The food was amazing, gluten intolerant and dietary restrictions were considered. The quality of the food was incredible too.Genuinely such a beautiful place and the energy given to us by the staff was very appreciated.It was actually quite romantic too, candles lit, cosy as hell and ambiance was just right.I actually said to my partner “every bite is an experience” I’ll leave it at that.
Our pup had a 2-hr grooming appt nearby so we wanted to wait around and found this place. Loved that their kitchen was still open to prepare food at 4pm. We ordered the brisket, broccoli salad & hot chips to share amongst 2 adults and 1 teenager and it was decent quantity cause it was enough to fill us. They have an outdoor setting as well as inside. Their alcoholic range is pretty good too
The menu alone would make me return. Gnocchi Gorgonzola, arancini with home made mayo, a $37 bottle of Pinot noir and limoncello to finish the night? Heaven. It was an added bonus that the food was divine, the Gorgonzola was perfectly rich, the atmosphere was warm and cosy with live music and fairy lights and we were greeted with a warm smile from the owner. 10/10 my new favourite go-to dinner place and somewhere you definitely should try.
I spent 2 weeks in Spain. I recently had a Spanish sandwich here and it was better than any meal I had in Spain. Great food great service.
The whole experience was perfect! The food was fresh and delicious, the staff were lovely and the live music was great which culminated in a wonderful atmosphere. Thank you, I’ll definitely be back! Dog friendly too which is a huge plus.
Delicious food. Had the chicken Parma and Philly steak sandwich. Lovely setting and music. Bit of a wait but well worth it 
Love these guys!!! - true Nepalese people!! Loving, caring and always accomadating - the Food is beyond great!! Cafe is cute and Service is sensational! wouldnt go anywere else.
An absolute gem! Must try is their signature seafood paella. We also had their large mussels, steak and chicken Parma - all these dishes were excellent. Finally a true gem in Essendon. Thank you Chef. See you again.
Came to this lovely restaurant with my support worker as we walked in there was a live music which was lovely to see. We had the option to sit outdoors or in but we chose to sit inside. The owner greeted us and made us feel very welcome. For starters I had a pumpkin soup which was delicious and then enjoyed my crumbed fish with potatoes salad. Although I wanted grilled fish and that wasn’t possible I still enjoyed the crumbed fish. The dessert was really yummy and overall I had a lovely experience. Looking forward to being back here with my guide dog. Kind regards, Adua
Food was so so incredible, live music set the scene! Hospitality was on the top level especially with the buff guy, with sleeve tattoos and a white Nike shoes. I believe he was the only one serving, but was so patient and accomodating. He made sure everyone was happy.Please make sure he knows he is doing the best job.Will definitely come here again!
Lovely place with great food and service at a reasonable price. What more could one ask for!
What a lovely restaurant! and food was delicious. One of the best steaks I’ve tried in Melbourne. Staff is very friendly and the prices are just right! Thanks guys!
We stumbled upon this little gem of a cafe today and booked in lunch for 4 people. The atmosphere was lovely, the staff were very welcoming and friendly and the food was excellent. We ordered the Marinara, Mediterranean salad with Calamari and the crumbed fish, all dishes were beautifully presented and tasted delicious. We will be back. Highly recommend this place.
A real gem. Food is great and not overpriced.Live musician makes it feel like you could be anywhere in the world.
Held a gathering here of 30+ people for brunch. The whole team were attentive, with great service and everyone was really happy with their meals. A very positive experience and one super easy to organise with no fuss!
had a birthday dinner with wife and 3 kids.service was great,cosy homely atmosphere .couldnt fault any dishes.
This was an unexpected find for us. A WONDERFUL unexpected find as it turned out. We were in a bit of a hurry as we popped in for a very early evening meal. Service and food alike were absolutely terrific. Highly recommended. Do yourself a favour and discover this hidden gem for yourself!

Lovely friendly staff.The look of my mushroom risotto did not look too appetising and the taste was okay but I would order it again. Having truffle oil for the first time was different.
Been wanting to come here for a while. Finally did for dinner and it was amazing! Great service, super friendly & helpful. The food was delicious. Not rushed between courses. Definitely be back! Thanks for a lovely evening.
The restaurant was very quiet as we went at lunch time. The food was great and well priced. Service was friendly
Cute little cafe in a quiet little road. We stopped off for a quick bite with the work team after visiting the Melbourne Showgrounds and had Really good experience. Food was great as was the smoked ng service. On street parking available no fee.
Went down with my family after hearing a lot about this place in essendon . The atmosphere with live music at the front was just next level . Reminded of the days lygon st used to be like in 2015 . Fully enjoyed our meals and will definitely be back . Must try restaurant.
Excellent spot for dinner. Great food, nice atmosphere and fantastic live music!
Food was ok, went past kitchen after seeing it I wanted to vomit my food, it was the most disgusting dirty kitchen I have ever seen. Think the health inspector needs to inspect.
The exterior of the cafe caught our attention . Very pretty and cozy . The menu had something for everybody . My husband really enjoyed his cheeseburger while i went for vegetarian gnocchi pasta. The kids loved it as well . Will be back again .
I had been before and brought friends. We were not disappointed.Food, service and price were all exceptional.The complementary olives to start were delicious.We shared bruschetta which was great. .We all ordered something different and everyone was very happy with their meal. Next time I would order a salad to share as well.It was a cold night and we were seated in the patio area surrounded by heaters, so the ambiance was great.We all enjoyed our meals and we will definitely be back. Our new favourite!
Drop in for a morning coffee on the way to work and I'm glad I did. Loved the coffee customer service 100% location is perfect will be heading back for dinner with family.
A real suburban diamond. Great atmosphere with the live music, very reasonable prices and the food was delicious…….try the seafood paella, spectacular. We will be back and soon!
Great restaurant, terrific food and the hosts were lovely, also live entertainment. Recommend highly. We will be back.
Had dinner last night at Little Fletcher, food was delicious, friendly & attentive staff and will definitely be back again!

My partner and I came here for dinner. Food was delicious and portions were very generous. The servers were also attentive and helpful. Can't wait to come back!
Absolutely loved this place! We went for an end of year party and were a bit sceptical, but we were blown away.We had a set menu, but everything (salmon, parma or veg Gorgonzola gnocchi) was absolutely delicious! Entrees were garlic bread and calamari and bruschetta to share, also delicious!The service was impeccable, the staff were amazing and the kitchen handled the service of such a large party very well.They were wonderful with our kids (patient, attentive and understanding) and were always on top of our needs.They had a live guitarist who set the mood nicely (my daughter loved dancing to him) and was also great with kids.I highly recommend and look forward to returning with the kids to enjoy more of their offerings.
We came here for the Xmas party last night and got a private room and feel very swish. The atmosphere was great although the food could have some improvements.
Beautiful and delicious food. The service was also very impressive and I can’t wait to return!
Under new management! Food was so yummy and staff were lovely!Definitely a 10/10 highly recommended, will definitely go back again soon.
5 stars for the gorgeous ambience. A very cute house-converted-to-cafe that's been maintained well. The coffee was great, though I would have prefered my scrambled eggs to be fluffier. Staff were friendly as well
Me and my friends wanted to have a party and this place was very appropriate. Delicious food and friendly staff made me smile all day. 
I been several times here, the food and service are great. Also very reasonably priced. I even enjoy the Saturday night where there is live music to. This place is a hidden gem, its relaxing chilled atmosphere puts a smile on your face and the owner and staff are very attentive and polite. They always make me and my friends feel welcome. Lunch and breakfast are very tastie and coffee is perfect. I highly recommend this. There is heaps of seating both inside and out.
Under new ownership! Little Fletcher (formerly Copper and Spoon) is a popular local haunt. Enjoyed a delicious breakfast and coffee. Terrific atmosphere and friendly hospitality. Look forward to going again!
