About Sweet Lime Cafe

Run by hands-on owners who remember regular orders, Sweet Lime Cafe serves hearty all-day brekky and in-house baked sweets in an airy, light-filled Mitcham dining room. Regulars drop by for plates loaded with spicy chorizo, potato rosti, and poached eggs, or grab a chicken club sandwich alongside thick smoothies. Display cases feature slices and muffins baked on the premises rather than sourced from commercial suppliers, served beneath lofty ceilings with generous table space.

  • All-day breakfast: Morning plates like the Ultimate Big Breakfast and eggs benedict are prepared right through the afternoon.
  • In-house baking: Cakes, muffins, and slices are made on-site rather than bought in from commercial bakeries.
  • Familiar neighborhood service: Owners George and Katie greet patrons personally, often remembering recurring orders.

  • Chicken Club Sandwich

    We had the Chicken Club Sandwich which was very tasty, and not dry like they can be at other places.

  • Ultimate Big Breakfast

    The Breakfast menu applied all day, so I had the Ultimate Big Breakfast (cheaper than Eggs Benedict plus mushrooms), and my wife had Scrambled eggs and mushrooms on sourdough. All the food was really good.
