Why Choose Raya Melbourne
Discover why Melbourne diners choose Raya for authentic Southeast Asian breakfast sets, inventive pastries, and comforting drinks.
Authentic Kaya Toast and Soft-Boiled Eggs
Crispy toast layered with rich kaya coconut jam served alongside perfectly textured soft-boiled eggs and seasoned with soy and pepper.
Toast was so good, crispy and flavorful, the matcha was creamy and warming, and the egg was perfectly cooked and with perfect texture.
Sharon H Comforting Teh Tarik and Morning Drinks
Foamy, fragrant teh tarik milk tea and rich specialty coffee concoctions designed to warm and energize your morning.
The teh tarik is superb, a big warm comforting hug, delicious flavour, light and foamy, great way to start the day.
Shaun D'Monte Distinctive Southeast Asian Dessert Fusion
Signature creations like kaya toast chiffon cake, ube pie, and fragrant pandan chiffon deliver inventive Southeast Asian flavour profiles.
Their ube banana pie is super nice and creamy, not too heavy and very comforting.
Vivi Hu Creative Specialty Cold Brews and Teas
Innovative pairings combining yuzu, hojicha, matcha foam, and espresso bring fresh discovery beyond standard cafe fare.
And last but not the least cold brew with the pandan foam! I don’t know who woke up one morning and thought “we need this”!
Kanij Fatema A Comforting Taste of Home
Traditional flavours and familiar breakfast rituals evoke the nostalgic warmth of classic kopitiam dining in Malaysia and Singapore.
Would really recommend the kaya toast and soft boiled egg as well, just like how the Malaysians have it back home ♡
Ming Xuan Mood-Lifting Day Maker
Delectable sweet treats and welcoming hospitality provide an uplifting escape that recharges your afternoon.
So many bad work days have been turned around here. Love the cookies especially, but also divine coffees and little glutinous sweeties

Kaya Toast with Soft Boiled Eggs
The kaya toast with soft boiled eggs were perfectly comforting, and the pandan chiffon cake was light and fragrant.
E W Kaya Toast Cake
The slightly sweet cream cheese icing keeps the cake moist and plays off the saltiness with the kaya adding a coconut tone to the cake.
Shaun D'Monte Beef Rendang Pie
Ordered beef rendang pie, egg toastie and caramilk cookie. Food was excellent. Pie was the best I've ever had.
Benjamin Ward Pandan Chiffon Cake

Shaun D'Monte Ube Banana Pie
Their ube banana pie is super nice and creamy, not too heavy and very comforting.
Vivi Hu Matcha Teh Tarik
love the matcha froam, not too much sweet, enough matcha taste and deep taste of teh tarik, good combo and both things are balanced.
Bunny Miso Caramel Chocolate Cake
The caramel's subtle saltiness delicately counterbalances the rich bitterness of the chocolate, resulting in a symphony of taste that is not overly sweet, but ever so beautifully balanced.

Before you head over
Practical advice on timing, seating, and ordering for your visit
Visit Early for the Best Cake Selection
Arrive early for the best choice of sweets; popular baked slices can see limited selection by 12:30 PM.
Keep Group Sizes Small
The cafe features compact seating, making it well-suited for solo diners or pairs rather than groups larger than three.
Season Your Eggs for Dipping
Prepare soft-boiled eggs the traditional way with a dash of white pepper and dark soy sauce before dipping your kaya toast.
