The breakfast that we had was absolutely beautiful and well presented
Great cafe! Enjoyed lunch here! The toastie was really delicious and a good sized portion! Coffee was good as well! Fresh orange juice is always a winner!
Omg this was an amazing cafe The food was very generous and delicious so tasty. We had eggs Benedict and breakfast roll and big thumbs up. And coffees were hot and perfect. Glad we left the highway to visit this gem.
Visited Kyneton for a weekend day trip and we stumbled upon Ruby Cafe. The coffee was AMAZING and the food is beyond this world! Very generous portions and well seasoned corn and potato fritters. It really blew our mind!
Dropped in for lunch as we were driving through Kyneton. Beautiful place with very friendly owners and stuff. Their food was very fresh and very tasty. We had calamary and eggs with mushrooms and both dishes were amazing (a bit too big for us but we still finished them)! The coffee was great too. We will definitely be back next time we are in Kyneton. Thank you!
Stayed at the Kyneton Hotel and just ate the most delicious breakfast. I had beans and eggs. The baked beans were house made and so tasty. Service was friendly and so the ambience
New owners, since October 25, very friendly staff. Food excellent including pricing and range. Good and fast service. Would highly recommend for breakfast, brunch or lunch. Inside and outside seating: on street and courtyard at the back.
Great cafe in Kyneton. Schnitzel roll had nice flavour with great fresh turkish bread. It was full but quiet and relaxing for lunch. Nice coffee and decent prices. My wife had the chilli scramble which I am told did not pull any punches so you've been warned. Spice lovers would enjoy it and should seek it out.
I stopped by with friends on the way from Melbourne to Bendigo around 7 pm to grab some food. The ambiance was beautiful and very welcoming. It happened to be their first day introducing a new pizza menu, which was exciting to try. We ordered the peri peri chicken and pesto chicken both tasted great. The pizzas were soft, cheesy, and clearly made with good quality ingredients. Definitely worth trying, and I would visit again.
