A gem in the new Wonga Park Shopping Centre. Ordered 2 toasties, the pumpkin and pastrami. YUM! Both came toasted to golden perfection, fillings hot, cheesy and juicy. Soy latte and long black delicious, perfect temperature.

Had lunch with friends at Little Lofty today July 4 . Do frequent numerous cafes most weeks and find this is without question our favourite by a mile in the Croydon North ,Wonga Park , Warrandyte Area . Coffee is excellent and the food is to die for particularly the breakfast burger with a side of chips , and the pancakes . You won’t leave the cafe hungry . New owners have carried out some renovations which have improved ambience and on the whole I would be very surprised if you went home dissatisfied with your experience . I am lost for superlatives.!! We have been going to this cafe for over 12 months and it just keeps getting better and better . Regards Ken and Sandra

New Owners in mid June 2025 took over and it's fantastic! They've made so many improvements, the service was fabulous and really friendly. And the buttermilk pancakes, the corn and zucchini fritter stack and the Lofty Benny were all to die for. Incredible flavours, easy parking, dog friendly (outdoors) and restaurant quality dine-in. We all loved it to bits! We were on our way to do a winery or three, and we left with full tummies and big smiles. Thanks Little Lofty Cafe. We'll be back soon.

I’m a regular customer at this cafe as I absolutely love there buttermilk pancakes. Yesterday morning 22/7/25 I popped in with three landscapers that had finished work at my home in Wonga Park. All were very keen to try the pancakes. The food and hot drinks and service did not disappoint. One of the young landscapers was 21yrs on 22/7 so I popped over to the counter and spoke with Cydney if it was possible to get a cupcake with a single candle on it for the birthday boy. Cydney said no problem at all. Cydney brings over the cupcake with the lit candle and we all sang happy birthday to the young fella. Cydney joined in too. Just a shout to Anna the owner and Cydney for being so obliging to assist. Anna for your information Cydney is a keeper and great employee. Thanks for a great brunch too.
