Manmaru

I'm a fairly regular customer though I did stop going for awhile when I felt the service was a little erratic. I went back a few weeks ago and I'm glad I did. As a vegetarian who likes to eat regular vegan lunches I have had great meals here. The coffee is fantastic and the sweets too. Everything is made fresh. It's an interesting atmosphere and it's not busy at the usual lunch times except on the weekend. The cafe name is I presume because of the graffiti theme. You can buy products and merchandise to make art. I'm not schooled up on that type of thing, I'm there for the food. The owner whose name I don't actually know can seem a little aloof which to a first time customer can translate as rude. If you talk to him, the owner is quite lovely. Lately we've been discussing the US election, as you do! I have noticed a few of the younger staff need a little extra training; they are not friendly enough, or have issues with the till. I was honest enough once to point out the girl was trying to give me $10 too much change! I'm glad I gave the Graff Caff a second chance. The food and coffee is worth it and if you come in enough, you'll get to know the owner. It's a unique cafe, very vegan friendly and in the heart of Dulwich Hill!

Update as of 28 August 2017 : Graff Caff is now Manmaru, a western Japanese fusion very vegan friendly and run by the original chef/business partner. The original founder left.
I've started going more regularly and found the food and customer service has improved tenfold with the changes.
