I’d been meaning to get here for literally years. A friend recently told me whenever her mum comes up from Melbourne she goes each day for the cakes. Well I can confirm they are the best and freshest cakes and slices anywhere. Today I had the freshest sandwhich and a magnificent pie. Coffee is worth stopping for too. No idea why the bakery is so busy with this gem almost next door. Previous visits I’ve had the quiche, Sicilian hot chocolate and last week my partner stopped in and surprised me with a lemon cream sponge (not its real name) and wow.

The proprietor is the loveliest person who makes great coffee, & delicious cakes & slices. It's our '2nd kitchen' when we're on the road. Great sandwiches too. There's a nice selection of hot food too.

Food was amazing and atmosphere was warm and cozy. Owner of the place was very friendly and down to earth.. Definitely will be back next time we are in the area... Highly recommended shop to visit won't disappoint

Staff friendly. Coffee good. Beaut cakes. An excellent respite from a drive. Please try the ginger fluff cake! Back again. I can't go past Birch & Perch. This time I'm thoroughly enjoying the butterscotch & macadamia cheesecake. Almost a regular!? The walnut cake is wonderful. You'll love the baked cheesecake (with an espresso)! All the cakes are delicious, created especially for the cafe.

I recently visited Brich&Perch Coffee Shop and had a delightful experience. The spiced beetroot latte was a unique and flavorful choice, and the golden latte was equally satisfying. The highlight was the delicious cheesecake – a definite must-try. Overall, a great place for a cozy coffee and treat!

Devistatingly good! 31 July 25 We dropped in for coffee and cake to break the drive home. Coffee was spot on, New york cheese cake and Ginger cake were both outstanding. Fresh, tasty, baked in house (I asked). Venue was quiet and inviting. Will be stopping in again next time we pass through.

Made a quick pit stop while on a road trip - no regret making this quick exit. Coffee was worth the stop! The date and walnut cake was moist and yummy.

Just popped in for a coffee on the way to Melbourne. The cake display is amazing! Beautiful fresh, house baked cakes and slices on offer. Banoffee slice, carrot cake, cherry flan, caramel slice, ginger fluffy cake to name just a few. Fab coffee also!
