Pony and Cole

9.0

Pony and Cole offers a delightful experience, particularly if you’d like a place for a casual brunch. The atmosphere seems quite comfortable and conducive to relaxed conversation. The team clearly prioritizes customer satisfaction, providing generally prompt and attentive service – a real plus for busy mornings. I’d say the menu variety is a definite draw for diverse tastes.

While the food presented is quite appealing, a bit more breathing room for perusing options before ordering could be beneficial. It is appreciated that the interior is kept at a very reasonable temperature and the overall design lends itself to a pleasant, although perhaps slightly noisy, setting. I’d recommend the coffee selection for those seeking a quality pick-me-up.

Service was wonderful and that's what you need at 7:30 am on the way to the airport for a 9am flight! Even better, the coffee was excellent, so I did not have to succumb to the watery liquid they served on the plane. Yay! I had the poached eggs, which were cooked perfectly. The Rye toast was light and fluffy. I was not getting the mushroom flavours, but other than that, all good.

I have an amazing experience every time I go to Pony & Cole! I love the menu because everything on it is delicious! The strawberry matcha’s are amazing I always bring my family here when they come over from overstate because I want to show off the incredible food 12/10 would recommend to anyone wanting an awesome feed! Ps. Would recommend booking on weekends because they get quite busy!

Went on a cold and rainy day because other reviews said it was warm. It delivered: multiple ACs going at 25°C. It was comfortably warm but not too hot. Many cafes are too cold! What's with that. Coffee and caramel slice were good. Downside was the acoustics, it's mostly flat non absorbent surfaces so it felt quite noisy, not helped by the fairly dense seating and nuisance background music (I don't necessarily dislike background music in a cafe but this was bad music). I would go again but maybe consider noise cancelling headphones!

I visited recently, and the food is tasty while the staff’s service is good. However, it felt like they didn’t give much time to look over the menu, as they wanted to take the order immediately. Also, although the food is delicious, some dish prices don’t seem proportional to the portion sizes served. That said, the atmosphere and decor of the place are great.

This has been one of my go-to places for years. I take people here all the time and they always love it! Great vegan options. Amazing food. Really good coffee. Staff are always super friendly. I’ve hosted lots of events in their back of house space too and I keep coming back because they make it so easy and flexible, I always get comments from guests about it.

First impression of the place was really good. The atmosphere was really lovely, however it really started to get disappointing from there. Arrived at 2 - one and a half hour before the written closing time only to be told that the kitchen had closed. This really should have been written down somewhere, all things considered, most brunch places typically close their kitchens maybe 30 minutes to an hour before the written time (which is usually 3 pm), so I think this is really a stretch that they close at 2 considering the written time is 3.30 pm. Was told that we could still order coffee and cake, so we sat down anyways. Iced matcha was watery, but the hot chocolate was pretty good. Ordered the chocolate almond, pear almond, apple rhubarb, passion fruit cheesecake and it’s not much to brag about. The only decent ones in my opinion was the apple rhubarb and pear almond - though I did like the plating. Overall, I’m a little disappointed in this experience. Maybe next time I’ll have the chance to experience the menu dishes.

A group of us went for breakfast. The staff are so friendly and helpful. I had the pancakes of the month - every mouthful was delicious. The juice was fresh and yummy. I had a hash brown on the side which was crunchy, salty and everything a hash brown should be. The open style kitchen meant we could see the food being created with love and care. Will definitely go back to try more menu items.
