What an experience. I had booked a table for my family on a Saturday and thank heavens we did because it was absolutely packed to the brim… however this didn’t deter us as the reviews speak for them self. Food was outstanding quality you can taste the love the chefs put into the food. I had the eggs benedict which was deliciousó and would highly recommend. There was a slight mix up of meals for my mother but this was quickly rectified by the lovely staff. I will absolutely return and would recommend to friends/ family.

Considering it was Mother’s Day and really busy, food was excellent and all of the staff courteous and efficient . Owner has just come out of hospital to look after Mother’s Day , a huge effort. Thoroughly recommend

Great menu plenty of choice. Love the use of the fish references as the shop used to sell aquariums. Staff were friendly and efficient. Plenty of street parking in a quiet street

Had a great brunch at this restaurant only wished we had booked for outside as indoors while fully booked was very noisy and hard to hear each other talking.

Food & Service is always excellent at Let Minnow. Only issue was the noise level inside due to loud customers. Menu has a great range of options catering for all

Corn fritters and breakfast burger were great, coffee pretty good. Service took 25mins for food even though restaurant was only 10% full. There was only 1 waitress but she worked flat out and was very friendly.

Have been here many times and no matter who serves us or the size of the group it's always amazing. Attentive and friendly, and I've never had a bad meal. My go to for group brunches because it's so easy to book and always reliable.

The venue was really busy and very loud. I was barely able to hear people on the other side of the table. Coffee and juices were solid and delivered quickly with a good crema and flavour for two almond lattes, one decaf. The menu sounded great. The reality was disappointing. I ordered the Persian eggs on a tomato and onion base. I received 2 well cooked soft poached eggs on a bucket of a hollandaise style sauce (including a welcome whack of acidity to balance the fattiness) with three slices of tasty Turkish bread on the side. Unfortunately my side order of bacon was bland. And the eggs lacked flavour and colour, either from a lack of seasoning or perhaps a caged provenance. The underlying sauce overwhelmed the whole dish and approached horrible. For my other diners, the waffles weren't tasty enough to finish. My vegan partner with gluten intolerance, despite numerous dishes offering vgn gluten free options was advised all she could eat was the Avocado on gluten free toast. The menu could be obviously revised to state vgn means vegetarian rather the the normal vegan. Overall not worth the trip.

Had great eggs Benedict and coffee for breakfast. Quick to get the coffee but food took 20-25mins with cafe 60% full. Still friendly service. Easy street parking, nice dining inside and outside. Bit noisy with lots of kids, babies.

Lovely little place with interesting menu and delicious food and drinks. Would highly recommend. Love also that they've kept the aquarium shop history somewhat.

I really loved this cafe but unfortunately they packed too many people into a small space and as it was really busy the staff were really busy so not as good in service as they could have been, but they were friendly and the food was excellent! Too many people in a small space meant it was also really noisy

Lovely service and food. Only issue was the heat. Would be good if they had demister fans on footoaths. Staff were lovely and made us feel welcome.

The food was good and well presented and there was minimal wait time. The service was very friendly and efficient. My only complaint was how noisy it was. It was hard to hear what my friends were saying. Let Minnow would be much improved by deadening the sound.
