About Notorious Espresso

Werribee gets its quintessential Melbourne morning fix right on Watton Street. Fast floor staff keep the room moving, greeting families and regulars with zero pretension. Plates skip the tired cafe standards for punchy, spiced morning staples—think Turkish eggs swiped through garlic yoghurt and romesco with crisp sujuk, or spiced shakshuka baked with feta and Turkish bread. The eggs benedict swaps out english muffins for potato rosti, topped with slow-cooked pulled beef brisket and pickled onion.

  • Turkish Eggs & Spiced Shakshuka: Garlic yoghurt, romesco, scrambled eggs, and sliced sujuk served alongside warm Turkish bread.
  • Brisket Benedict on Potato Rosti: Slow-cooked pulled beef brisket piled on a crisp potato rosti with poached eggs and pickled onion.
  • Attentive Family Service: Energetic, welcoming table service accommodating kids, celebratory groups, and quick coffee stops.

  • Signature Middle Eastern Breakfast Specialties

    Rich Shakshuka baked with fragrant spices alongside Turkish eggs topped with garlic yoghurt, romesco, and sujuk bring bold Middle Eastern flavors to brunch.

    served with beautiful Turkish bread to mop up the punch of garlic yoghurt and romesco sauce with 3 lovely slices of sujuk (Turkish sausage). This was flavoursome, rich and tasty with every bite.
