This is truly a hidden gem in Colac’s Main Street. The atmosphere is nice and reflects its Lebanese heritage.The food here is incredible. The Macadamia gluten free Cheesecake is simply to die for! It was so fresh, so smooth and delicious, topped with a little white chocolate just for good measure. The lunch consisted of triangles with a reasonably finely chopped fresh salad consisting of tomato, parsley, herbs and finely sliced lamb, topped with house made garlic sauce, with the traditional spices. My goodness, the taste was just so refreshing and tasty on a hot day.
The main thing I must recommend that people try out is the owners Chai latte. Being a Melbournite, I thought I was expert level in the chai tasting department.Not so as it turns out. The owner is the BEST chai latte maker on the planet. Super delicious and better balanced than any chai I have ever ordered between Colac, Melbourne, Copenhagen and San Francisco!! I ended up ordering three in total and I was actually sad to awake back in Melbourne the next day because it was such a long drive to get another chai latte and lunch from Future Cafe! I honestly recommend that anyone with discerning tastebuds visit Ashraf at this gorgeous gem of a cafe. Happy Chai latte day coming up for you lucky visitors!!🫶🏻
Passing through Colac and fortunately stopped for breakfast at Gravity Cafe. Beautifully decorated with some amazing paintings on the walls. Great food and coffee and they cater well for gluten free.
Visited yesterday afternoon — it was obviously close to closing time (2.45pm) as the coffee machine had been cleaned so I couldn’t order a takeaway coffee. The barista was really rude and reluctant to even let me use the toilet.
I ordered a gluten free savoury scone to takeaway which was lovely however a few hours later, my coeliac sister and I become extremely sick after eating it. She was so violently ill she was unable to continue driving her and her nine month old back home. I’m not sure if the scone was mislabeled or the lady gave me the wrong item as I haven’t had a response via email or Instagram yet. But if you’re coeliac I would definitely recommend avoiding this place as there is obviously a lack of attention to detail / care!
