We ate from the lunch menu and found the food to be superbly balanced with interesting flavour combinations, and many gluten-free options. Service was friendly and attentive. Will definitely return!

The Hardware Societe is a great little cafe for a relaxed brunch with your friends or partner!
The food is delicious and the coffee knows whats going on because i had 2!
The staff are a little everywhere however it is very busy and popular so its easy to understand why they are rushed.
The cutlery and crockery are such...

Very disappointed with my experience here! My breakfast in a pot was flavourless and over priced! Will not be returning.
Fantastic coffee and food with great service. We tried this cafe based on tripadvisor reviews and were not disappointed. From the queue outside it was clear this was a popular place for breakfast.

I can't wait to return to this place! Really cute / hipsterish / alternative atmosphere with amazing food! Maybe a bit too busy but i guess it's normal since this place great!
Dining solo, I was lucky enough to get seated straight away at the kitchen. My baked eggs were a little spicy but I enjoyed the almond crunch on top. The tea cosy on the teapot and vintage cup and saucer were divine. Looking forward to trying out the baked goods on my return!
The food and service is excellent. Its outside the box which makes it that little bit special. I had the sardines for breakfast and they were devine. My friends rated their breakfast which was the bircher muesli and baked eggs. Be ready for a line though at busy times. Make sure this is on your list, its a must !!!
After reading reviews on tripadvisor about this cafe we thought we HAD to check it out.
The food was great for a breakfast menu! ( I was a little annoyed when I ordered and asked for a side of avocado and they said "no, we don't adjust our menu") but other than that the breakfast was really nice and I...

You won't...
