Loved this cafe. Amazing food (delicious & nutritious) - we had pork sandwich and vego brekkie plate dine in + carrot cake & cinnabun to take away. Very good coffee also. Thanks for having us!!!
Amazing staff and really yum fresh food! Highly recommend.
Stumbled upon this little gem for breakfast while we were in Hamilton. Had the chilli scrambled eggs and chai latte, and the coffees came out fast which was good! Highly recommend the chilli scrambled eggs too they were delicious!
Gorgeous cafe! Me & my partner are from Melbourne, and found Little Koi for our morning coffee! Beautiful staff, 10/10 coffee and raspberry & white chocolate muffins were steaming hot and fresh. Will definitely be back on our next stay! :)
What a little gem in Hamilton. Loved everything about the place. If I’m going to give the tiniest bit of feedback: I’d say the egg and bacon roll is already sweet in the brioche bun, so I’d make the chutney not so sweet. But I didn’t really care, I still really love it. The egg was cooked to perfection. As was then Benedict. Well done guys. 👌🏼
We had our quick breakfast here, the coffee is nice and strong. We ordered bacon egg burger, it was great and tasty. Definitely recommend!
Really nice small cutsey place. Not too busy when we arrived so our food came fast. The food was delicious, definitely worth the price and would come again!
Little Koi comes highly recommended, stopped in for a quick takeaway lunch and the variety of selection didn’t disappoint. Everything on display looked great and fresh. I went for the chicken schnitzel sambo. Which was really nice toasted and cheese melted, $17 did feel a little steep but so is everything these days. They have plenty of indoors and our door seating options too. Well worth giving it a try.
Quiet and underrated, this Cafe was open early hours and absolutely firing all cylinders, especially considering the size of the town and as someone passing through. Service was friendly and helpful and coffee portions were big. Beautiful interior and decorations were awesome with so much greenery. Would highly recommend!
Stopped in to this cute cafe to fuel up before a drive to Melbourne. Staff were prompt and friendly. Coffee was great and the food was excellent. I ordered the toasted Reuben sandwich with a side of chips. All perfectly cooked and hot, and the chicken salt on the chips was bangin’. Would definitely come back if I’m in Hamilton again!
