"Love this place! Generally when I suggest it to people who haven’t been here before they struggle to find it"
Waited at waiting point, didn't take long to get seated, sat down and noticed that silverware was a little dirty. Server was kind and understanding and she got me better silverware, had a few smudges on it but still usable. I had the Magic Mango drink, taste is very good though needs to be blended with Ice. Water that they server should also have ice. Vibe in the dining room was very good, great music, good nature vibe, fancy brunch vibe with good lighting and outdoor seating. Asked for more ice, they gave me ice though it would be better if ice was just blended in. Ice came in a cup with I piece of Paulp from orange juice. I didn't order Orange juice. Food was great, I had the fried chicken burger which comes with chips and it all just went so well together, good presentation and goes on a burger type board. My friend had the brisket, isn't on the menu all the time but it was this time, comes with chips, BBQ sauce and salad with nice and fresh looking pickles. Tasted very nice and all went well together on a fork. Overall, service was very good, give it a 8/10, food was 9/10 and vibe was 10/10, would defentatly reccomend going here for breakfast, brunch or lunch.

My friends and their kids went for a Sunday brunch around 11am and was kindly directed to a table outside with barely shade and too much sunlight. Because we have kids with us we asked the server if he can move us to the table besides us with a perfect shade once the customers there finishes so that we can enjoy our food and he happily agreed. Unfortunately, we tried to wait to for them to ask us to move at the table with the food with us waiting but no one cared to ask us to move, instead we ate our food without enjoying it and we even stood up eating to get some shade. The kids were very irritated and become uncomfortable but no one even asked us how are we going on. So we left the cafe without enjoying the place and the food. We heard a lot of good things about this cafe so we tried it for the first time but unfortunately we had an unpleasant experience and will never come back here.
I wanted to laugh when the food was served because I felt like I was a fool for having to pay $22 for this cheap plate of food. Its soggy steamed veggies served with hummus and a pool of veggie water. It was served on a cheap $2 bowl from kmart, the EXACT ones I had at home! The thing is, it's so ridiculous that I am not even mad. The presentation is poor, and the food is incredibly average. I would have made it at home under 10 minutes for less than $5 bucks with my eyes closed. I would have at least made it more presentable and served on a better plate.I hope the brocalli and zucchini came from organic farms because it was definitely not worth it in any other way.

It's Saturday and we decided to skip preparing home cook breakfast. This cafe is rather hidden and we missed the entrance to the parking area, so got to slow down when approaching. Service & Ambience [4]. Good service and friendly staff. We got the outdoor table. Though indoor won't full but just got table for two. Lovely rustic atmosphere. Outdoor is facing the main road so unless you are those distracted type of person, else you wouldn't mind the traffic noise. Food [4]. The food we order was great. The poach eggs with braised pork (slightly hard to chew though). Coffee was good too. Worth to come back again to try out other food on the menu.

Love this place! Generally when I suggest it to people who haven’t been here before they struggle to find it. It’s a super central Berwick location yet tucked away - the perfect balance! The menu is always on point and arguably they have the best coffee in Berwick! I find it to be family friendly - although there isn’t a kids area to play in or colouring books/pencils (that I’m aware of) they do have an outdoor area which kids can move about in. It isn’t fenced off from the carpark so you can’t let them roam free unfortunately They grow their own herbs and possibly veggies (I could be wrong?) to the side of the cafe too - which I love! Definitely a local fave! ☕️
We use to come here all the time for great quality food and honestly I was utterly disappointed with the food. I ordered a kids omelette which came out burnt, overcooked and saturated with old oil. I wouldn’t have eaten it and my son spat it straight out - he’s 1. Our ‘chicken’ was basically a chicken strip covered with batter - I know times are tough for restaurants now but wow, I would have never expected the quality to be this bad especially with the cost going up. Coffee was still good though - that’s about it Sorry guys had to be honest

Ordered the chicken and waffles? Or chicken and donut? Can't remember the name. But it was delicious. Chicken was beautifully fried,crunchy on the outside and juicey on the inside. Really good play on sweet and salty and the Mayo sauce just adds a little bit of heat. I was going to take a star off because I felt that the popcorn wasn't needed?? Idk. Just seems like a Last minute thing? But I couldn't do that because I also ordered a almond croissant and it was mouth drooling!! Plus the service here by the girls is really good. Always nice to see servers that are welcoming with smiles on their faces and not hating being at work.
Well this place was a pleasant find. I had the chilli scrambled eggs, my wife the mushroom bowl, and my son the fried chicken burger, all tasted terrific. The meals were a good portion size and reasonably priced, and coffee was great. The staff were really friendly and enthusiastic. All over this place exceeded expectations and I look forward to returning again.

Going to Little by Little is always an absolute pleasure. The service is phenomenal. I'm always greeted with a smile, and a warm, friendly demeanour. I think a lot of other businesses could afford to model their customer service after the staff at Little by Little. The food is also always top tier. Their knowledge of product and food is also amazing, giving you insight to where they source their goods. Thanks for always being amazing

Chips and smashed avo - Good. Free water. I found... Hot chocolate & coffee was at Warm-ish temperature. Limited vegetarian options. No vegetarian suggestions provided for burger, roll, sandwich. Ordered stew - Too acidic. Staff member rushed to clear dishes High noise levels inside. Unorganized parking with confusing entry from main road. Narrow entry to inside parking & dangerous sloped exit to main road Queuing outside in the cold weather till welcomed

It may be hard to find parking in their parking lot at peak times. You can park at Berwick station or nearby streets which will be less than 5 minutes walk to the cafe
Super lovely staff and amazing food at this cafe, it's even dog friendly with an outdoor area for you to sit, and the staff will bring your canine friend a water bowl. Not the most comfortable seating but if that's the only complaint a person has, you know you're onto a winner. Trying this place is a must if you enjoy breakfast foods done right.

We were the on a weekday off peak hour around 130pm. Service was so slow that we have to get up from our table to call someone to take our order and to wait for almost 30mins for our food to arrive which was only 2 dishes bao bun and stew. Presentation was below par and bao bun were too big for mushrooms filling. I was hardly tasting anything but Mayo, I felt like eating buns with Mayo. Also, bread with stew was cold to eat. We were there because of good reviews but this place didn't impress us at all.
Usually a long wait at this cafe but so glad we managed to get a table upon arrival on this day! Great options to choose from on the menu. Ordered the Potato Croquettes, Avocado and Feta on Toast + Potato Rosti, Crispy Chicken Waffles and Chilli Scramble on Croissant - which were all wonderful! Literally nothing to complain about. Iced Mocha and Iced Coffees that we ordered were very good too! Staff were very attentive, helpful and friendly. Will be back!

I really enjoyed my visit here. The Mork iced chocolate is to die for. The cold brew is super refreshing and the latte art is beautiful. I also had some fires chicken which was extremely morish! Heaps of other healthy food options too. The vegan chocolate cake looked very tempting. Sitting outside is ok but there is a bit of noise from the busy road and the train nearby. Environment is fine for children too but I didn’t see any toys so bring your own. Overall I would likely recommend this cafe.
Entrance is extremely difficult to find from the road, did a big lap to get back to the entrance. Food was quick to come & beautiful presented, however my fried egg was undercooked & as you can see from the photo still had the membrane raw, I'm all for runny egg, but the egg white including the membrane needs to be cooked properly. That & the fact the waitresses never asked how our food was, I would not return. If you do go to little by little I would make sure everything is cooked through.
Little by little becomes a lot and I'll tell you why. Service was very friendly and attentive. Venue was comfortable and had a home like vibe. Delicious and fragrant coffee. We got chicken and waffles and the brisket burger. Chicken was so juicy and crunchy. Combine with sauce and pop corn, they actually make this combination work. Brisket in the burger also amazing. No dry bits and great sauce to pair. Reasonable prices and great servings

Great place with ample parking. Great coffee and food although slightly pricey most breakfast mains were around the 17-19 dollar mark. The place is not very crowded but somehow it gets very loud inside making it distracting for simple small table conversations. Really good coffee had the soy flat white which was perfect. I had the mushroom dish which I thoroughly enjoyed. Very patient waiting staff and food was served at a very appropriate wait time. Happy to come back again anytime.
On 20-11-2023 at approximately 1pm I took my 77 year old Mum and my 19year old daughter for lunch. We ordered the omelet and the mushroom dish. The food was beautiful as well as the coffees but the reason I’m actually writing this review is because our waitress was just beautiful. She had dark long hair in plaits. She was so polite and friendly and put a lot of effort into making sure we had everything we needed. Thank you.

It's kind of average. The decor is nice, the waiters are friendly, however the menu could improve. For me personally, most dishes on the menu are the same at any other cafe and then a few different dishes e.g. the chicken and waffles dish. The items are pricey and some of the dishes (e.g. soba noodle salad) have a large portion size but I was disappointed with the croquette main dish which left me hungry.
Great little Cafe for brekkie or lunch. The only issue i have is that it can be quite noisy inside. Thou that doesn't stop me coming back regularly.

Absolutely AMAZING!! The french toast is divine. The chilli scrambled is very balanced, nicely flavoured and wasn't over the top spicy. The staff are super friendly and helpful. The main reason I was recommended to go to Little by Little was for the Chai latte and I pass that recommendation on to the next person.

Great little cafe busy when we came but apparently it wasn’t lol. I ordered the Potato Croquettes and they were really yum. My partner ordered the Chicken Waffles and he said they were great too, we shared dishes but I liked the croquettes better, the waffles were yum though! Highly recommend this place , so many good dishes to try! Service top notch too , very attentive staff!
This place is amazing. The food variety isn't huge but what they serve is very creative and delicious. It's good value for money and a great environment to be in. The staff are also very kind, polite and attentive :) Would recommend and i'm a very regular customer. Good take away coffee too when you're in a rush! Highly recommend their hot chocolate and crispy chicken waffle!!
I've been to Little by Little for a few years now, and this place never fails to disappoint. I love the look and feel, the the open area to the lightening. Coffee is always good and on point, and so is the food, the menu switches with the seasons. Food tastes amazing, minimal wait and comes out hot. This isn't a cafe I'd expect in the suburbs, probably why I enjoy it so much.
Love this place. Been here a handful of times with different people. Food was great as always. Inside seating can be a little echoey.

It wasn't busy today, there were still empty tables. The scrambled eggs had no salt..flavourless, rubbery and overcooked. Easily the worst scrambled eggs I've ever had. The smoothie was average. For the price you are better off going to boost, and buying a Coles croissant and eggs and make it yourself and still have money left over. One star was for the friendly waiter.
Great place! Very friendly and kind staff. They serve this special coffee which are from different origins, I believe they change weekly or so, that's great to try for coffee lovers. We also has a basic toast, which was good too. Definitely worth visiting again.

First time to have breakfast here and it was amazing. Very friendly staff, and great food. I would also like to mention that this is one of the few places where the tables are clean ! What a difference to many other places we have been. The food was delicious and the coffee as well. Try the Chai latte and the roasted pumpkin bowl ! We will be back.
Never had a bad meal here. Lots of gluten free options. The coffee here is brilliant, one of the only cafes where I can confidently order an espresso. They are dog friendly too so you can take your well behaved pooch, but you’ll have to go through to the rear yard via the side of the building so you don’t walk your dog through the cafe.
Always our favourite spot in Berwick for coffee! and they have the best chilli scrambled eggs in Melbourne. The outside seating area is not as good as before. The artificial green wall seems a bit cheap.

It was my first time coming over as recommended by my sister and it didn’t dissapoint! Their coffee was great! The chicken waffle is the bomb! So if you’re into brunch this cafe should be in you’re top list!
Always love coming back to this little caffe. Great spaces location, pet friendly and ample parking available. Recommend the Little by little chripy chicken waffles. Good coffee and super friendly service.
The young waiter was so nice to bring a dog bowl for our puppy without us even asking for one. Such friendly and attentive service. Enjoyed the coffee and food too. Will come back again soon.
DELICIOUS coffee. We made sure to grab another each for the road. Food was also delish. Love the potato croquettes! Reasonable pricing. Would definitely recommend.
Amazing little cafe tuck away in a secret corner. Food so amazing, especially the chilli egg tasted so good. Hot Chocolate a must for me to order
Great place! Great food, extra friendly staff. Clean tasty fresh food. Reasonable prices. One of the best cafe I have ever had. We'll be back.
Friendly staff, cute ambience and lovely vibe. Really enjoyed the presentation of the chicken waffles (which came with popcorn!)
Favorite Cafe!!! Friendly staff and amazing food and coffee! Our go-to brunch is their chicken and waffles!! Highly recommend!
Great food, friendly staff. Easily accessible from the motorway. I recommend the Mushroom Trio and the Chicken Waffles.
