We visited Sweet Lime Cafe in Mitcham over the weekend and were blown away by the sheer size of both the cafe itself and their menu. The cafe comfortably seats over 50 people and is nestled at the bottom of an office complex off Mitcham Road. There are an eclectic collection of tables and chairs to chose from ranging from high benches, to booths and a table that looked like my dining room table at home. The current owners bought the business at the end of 2016 and since then have been working on their menu items and offering catering to the surrounding office buildings and families.
We chose one item from the breakfast menu and one from the lunch menu. The coffees tasted great, but lacked the latte art that a lot of popular Melbourne cafes pride themselves on. The prices are very decent and you get value for money with very generous serving sizes. They also have catering options available with a gorgeous range of handmade sandwiches and salads.
The smashed avocado with goats cheese & poached eggs ($16.90) was a very generous serving and came topped with cherry tomatoes and rocket. Each ingredient was plentiful and the flavour combination was delicious.
The Club Sandwich ($16.90) was beautifully presented and tasted fantastic. You could taste a bit of everything (chicken, bacon, tomato, egg, lettuce & mayo) with each bite and it came served with deliciously chunky fries and tomato sauce.
Sweet Lime are new to the online game and are looking to expand their community to those outside of the local Mitcham crew by growing their Instagram presence. Make sure to give them a visit before everyone else realises how tasty their food is!
They are open 7 days a week from 6am - 4pm (Mon - Fri) and 7am - 3pm (Sat - Sun).
