Misha's Café

(Formerly Proud Mamma)

03/11/2023

I'm doing something a little different today. I'm starting off by going to Degani for lunch and then another café after.

I've got a Dr's appointment at 2pm to go over recent bloods, but she tends to check my blood pressure most visits. Believe it or not decaf can put your blood pressure up a bit so I decided not to risk it.

I've already reviewed Degani so not much point re-doing that. One of the other cafés I visited in January has changed hands so I thought I'd do a review of them.

My bloods were all good, Dr happy with blood pressure and weight but glad I waited until after to grab coffee.

I went into Misha's café at 2:40pm to be told they were doing take away only, so I guess they must close at 3pm. As far as I can tell they have only been open 1 week. The man was lovely and very apologetic so I accepted the take away option. I've already reviewed the physical store before so not a big deal.

I then went down to the *insert silly voice here* "pocket park" which is neither a pocket or a park. I sat down and attempted to start writing but it was too cold and the wind was too gusty. So now I'm down in the plaza at the now table-less seat area writing on the one pathetic excuse for a "table" available. Not very ideal.


Now for the review:

  • Coffee look - 1
  • Coffee flavour - 0
  • Price - $5.50 = 1
  • Pram friendly - 0.5
  • Atmosphere - 1
Total: 3.5/5



The new ownership has made my impression of the place go up by 1.5 points which is interesting. The new owners are better at coffee look and atmosphere it would appear

I did notice they have a special kids menu which is nice and not always a given at a café.

The coffee flavour got a bit lost to the milk because from what I could tell from the smell, it would be nice in a regular/small.

So when I did my review 3 weeks ago we all had gastro. Well, this time last week myself and my husband both had Covid. I mean honestly enough already. I've had gastro 5-6 times since May and Covid last week. Can we be done for the year now please?

Our daughter has now figured out how to say hello on the phone and can almost say outside or as she says "ouside" about a million times a day 😒

Until next time...

  For Change Café Bellfield 21/07/2023 Decided to take myself out for lunch after finishing work at 1pm since I have a Dr's appointment at 2:30pm, and couldn't be bothered going home yet. I'd have to go home have lunch, go to the clinic, go home for probably an hour or less and then pick our toddler up at 4pm. A big no thank you to that. Instead I decided to hit up one of the cafes on my list, have a relaxed lunch, go to the Dr and just pick our toddler up a bit earlier. Time for the review: Coffee look - 1 Coffee flavour - 1 Price - $5.50 = 1 Pram Friendly - 1 Atmosphere - 1 Total: 5/5 Holy crap it happened! A café has actually lived up to my slightly unrealistic expectations 😂 The coffee was very well presented in a beautiful cup. In my excitement I may have forgotten to sniff before tasting, but not a big deal because the flavour is there in spades. The foam was luxuriously velvety and a great precursor to the flavourful coffee underneath. The price is fantastic consi...

Mick's at Sweet by Nature (Sweet by Nature) 11/11/2023 The last few weeks have been zooming by with such force I decided to stop for a breather coffee and lunch after errands. I almost didn't because I feel like I'll have so much washing etc when I get home. But it can wait. Let's review: Coffee look - 1 Coffee flavour - 1 Price - $18.30 for meal, so $5.30 at a guess = 1 Pram friendly - 1 Atmosphere - 1 Total: 5/5 I'm not overly surprised they got such a good rating. I've been to Sweet by Nature many times over the years and their coffee and food has always been good. The café section is now a separate business called Mick's at Sweet by Nature. Thankfully the quality of everything is still excellent. When I took my first sniff I knew I was in for a good coffee. The froth was lusciously velvety and the perfect intro on what was to come. As I took my first sip I got a good hit of flavour. The coffee they use is excellent quality. In terms of the price that is ...

Aisle 17 14/08/2023 I've come to a random café straight after work because it's really convenient and I realised it's been a few weeks since my last review. I think I'll have to put a fortnightly/three weekly reminder in my phone since I keep almost forgetting. #mumbrain As you will see I've come for lunch as well. So lots to explore in today's review. Let's get into it: Coffee look - 1 Coffee flavour - 1 Price - $6 = 0.5  Pram friendly - 0.5 Atmosphere - 1 Total: 4/5 The coffee is well presented and not stingy on the all important choc dusting. The foam was a little thinner that I like, but not a deal breaker. The flavour is fantastic. For a decaf it packs a good punch and not too bitter or acidic. Definitely on the more expensive side at $6, but given the quality I could almost let that go. Almost. There are only a couple of tables you would consider bringing a pram to. It's not ridiculously cramped, but would be awkward with a pram further in. The atm...
