How awesome is this place and it's name is prefectly quirky. I had the vegan friendly smashed avocado on sour dough and a iced chocolate with almond milk. Everything was perfect and flavours were great. And the staff really helpful and friendly.

An actual five stars, unheard of from me! But Near Me was a wonderful surprise cafe that we stumbled upon when we were in the Mount for the weekend. My son and I had planned to walk to the main shopping area for breakfast but he was cold and hungry so we went to the first place we found, Near Me. My son is a fussy eater but the staff gave us our special order of a plan croissant and scrambled egg. I had Eggs Bene with bacon. The food was perfect, really, and we eat out... a lot! The coffee was perfect temp and tasted great, but the clincher on this five star review is the staff. Lovely, friendly, talkative, nothing-was-too-difficult staff who even gave my ADHD son allll the attention he needed to make dining in (something he hates), a very enjoyable experience. Keep up the awesome work, y'all. You're doing a great job! We will be back tomorrow!!
