It is the best coffee I have ever tasted. Even with soy in my double shot - not many places get it right for me and many manage to make my soy curdled! It was excellent coffee! Pity I never get to have breakfast there because it was packed and we couldn't wait for a table - so I can't... More

We reviewed the coffee primarily, espresso and syphon using single origin beans. This link is my blog review of the cafe, plus check out the other cafes on Melbourne that we visited. http://spottedatespressomelbourne.wordpress.com/?s=st+ali Be prepared to try something different, ask the staff for suggestions. They are very friendly and are passionate about sharing their coffee knowledge. Excellent vibe in the... More

Was a little disappointed, after being rushed to our seats, I then realized there was NO VEGAN meal option at all. I watched my family eat their meal and ordered a soy latte that seemed to get forgotten. I felt like a non person at the end of my visit. More

Great coffee, fantastic food, friendly service and all packaged up in a quirky, typically Melbourne location. Highly recommend! More

Their espresso's are outstanding. Fab atmosphere and delicious food. One of my top 3 cafes in Melbourne. I have a couple of blogs that may be of interest. Firstly, a review of Melbourne cafes my wife and I have visited; http://spottedatespressomelbourne.wordpress.com/ and secondly, a list of my favourite cafes in Aus, NZ, San Fran, NY and Canada; www.espresso-jono.blogspot.co.nz More

This place is located in south Melbourne. Just follow the crowd and don't be surprised if u see people crowding outside to get a place. The wait won't take long as St Ali cafe is huge and is able to fit everyone. I must say there is a wide choice of food selection and drinks but they are pricey compared... More

Great coffee, and wonderful food in a very cool fit out. Some communal tables, and other smaller tables poked around into the nooks and shells which have resulted from gutting the old building. The service here is pretty bad. Once I waited half and hour for my second coffee despite reminding the unfriendly waitress. I keep going back for the... More

St Ali coffee is pretty famous in Melbourne, and for good reason. I had a long macchiato of the house blend and it was delicious. Full of flavor, great texture, there truly is a difference. For breakfast, the Bircher muesli again was a treat. Justifying the deluxe tag, I'd gladly go back tomorrow for it. St Ali is now Melbourne... More

12 of us rocked up here after a show at 9.30pm on a Monday night. Was really the only thing open. They kindly accommodated us and kept the kitchen open so we could eat. The food was pricey and not my understanding of traditional Mexican fare but I ate the Po Boy and was pleasantly surprised. Friends had the quinoa,... More
