Book NowAbout Jake & the Beans Talk
Malvern East mornings revolve around this neighbourhood fixture, where inventive comfort food meets relaxed Melbourne cafe culture. The kitchen turns traditional morning staples on their head—regulars gravitate toward the breakfast gnocchi and the salsa-topped Mexican eggs Benedict on sourdough.

Grab an iced long black, snag an open-air table out back, and settle in for a plate of chilli scrambled eggs.

- Inventive Brunch Signatures: Plates skip the predictable with signature breakfast gnocchi and zesty Mexican eggs Benedict on sourdough.
