About Strudel's Cafe

Strudel's Cafe pairs classic diner comfort with house-baked pastry on Keilor Road. Regulars slide into the close-knit tables for reliable daytime staples—think chicken schnitzel with mushroom gravy or hearty egg scrambles—before stepping up to the counter for dessert. Trays of traditional apple and cherry strudel sit beside towering vanilla slices layered with rich buttercream and flaky pastry, served alongside strong, piping-hot coffee.

  • Hearty Diner Fare: Generous daytime classics like schnitzels, omelettes, and big breakfasts.
  • Casual Diner Service: Counter-order model with hot meals brought straight to your table.

  • Traditional handmade strudels and bakery treats

    A classic European bakery cabinet offers traditional baked apple and cherry strudels and velvety vanilla slice made fresh daily alongside cafe coffees.

    The Apple Strudel was perfect, the pastry was so fluffy and soft and the apple was sweet and it had the slightest tang of citrus.

    Angelique Scinto

  • Consistently smooth, piping hot coffee

    Baristas consistently brew smooth, full-flavored coffee served at proper drinking temperatures for dine-in visits and morning tea catch-ups.

    The coffee is consistently outstanding—always smooth, never bitter, and hands down the best in the area.

  • Comforting retreat with warm hospitality

    Hot sustenance and quick service provide comforting refuge and recovery during blustery days or busy public holidays.
