Fine aromas

Unfortunately there can be a difference seen in food and atmosphere once the change in owners happened. Ordered the bruschetta and salmon, but wasn't able to eat the tomatoes. It had been soaked in something giving an aftertaste. My friend had a toastie which was nice but basic. The prices are good for the food.

Friendly staff, great food at reasonable prices,ambience is charming and excellent place to catch up with friends. Background muzac is soothing and certainly not too loud. Best licensed cafe in Northern Ballarine. In summer many folk get the ferry from Docklands and love spending an hour or so chilling in air conditioned comfort. Go once, you'll go more!!!

Great coffee and service but food price little expensive though. But happy with everything else.

Good honest service and food very accommodating with menu changes to to my being pregnant

All in all good experience food was good, service was lovely very nice and welcoming people only reason for 4 star and not 5 is because eggs were hard boiled instead of soft other then that very happy

Ammazing breakfast great coffee staff very friendly a must

Coffee and drinks were good meals were okay nothing special. Not as many gf options as expected

This was a good experience as the place is very relaxing. The coffee was good and the service friendly and efficient.

Awesome joint, went to the bakery at first but they had stopped their breakfast service at 11 already. Instead we went to fine aromas (formerly post script), and ordered from their all day breakfast menu, I had eggs on toast but added mushrooms, hash brown and bacon, was beautiful and at a good price, service was swift yet polite. Would recommend for day travellers and between locals alike. Interior was clean and spacious with seating out front with view of bay and surrounding township and a garden area out back.

Now this is a breakfast. This meal had, smoked salmon, steak, sausage, egg,toast,tomato,mushrooms and the list goes on. Take this breakfast on and see if you get it all in. I will be back soon for another one.

Been there 3 times now. Spot on every time.
Went there on a public holiday. It was very busy but the food and coffees still came out quickly.

Good prices at this cute lil cafe in Portarlington. The menus are great! Reused Little golden books - giving the kids something to do while waiting for their waffles (must have these)

The code black coffee beans the cafe uses are delicious too!

Good service. We had breakfast there, bland food. Nothing special to remember.

Fabulous coffee fabulous service fabulous atmosphere

Should get another star for their menu books. Do yourself a favour.

My family has been to this cafe numerous times and I have recommended this cafe to many friends and family. Never been disappointed. Always enjoyed the food, the coffee and the staff that are so cheerful and helpful

Nice courtyard setting for coffee and cake. No EFTPOS is a bit arrogant.

This is the best Cafe in Portarlington staff is very friendly and food is exceptional and they make a awesome cup of coffee if your heading to Portarlington this cafe is a must

Always a pleasant experience visting here. The staff are very friendly and the food and coffee is great. The 1 thing I would want is lactose free milk. Nobody in Portarlington has this, some of us hate soy and almond but put up with discomfort for a coffee.

Ambiance is lovely, food and coffee is excellent. Highly recommend this cafe

Quaint little cafe a bit further down the main drag of Portarlington but worth the extra steps.

Great little Cafe, delicious food and the best coffee!

Poached eggs are poached eggs!! There are no hard poached eggs!! We ordered poached eggs as part of our breakfast and all 3 of us received these hard eggs not runny.
When we asked for them to be replaced with actual poached eggs the response was oh did you want soft poached eggs .
Seriously if you are offering both options then ask the client what they would prefer even though poached eggs are traditional runny.
When the meal came back only 2 of us received correctly poached eggs and the bread under the mixed mushrooms and capsicum was so soggy it was quite bad.
My sons meal had so much mustard it was smothered on over everything to the point that you couldn t even identify what was on the plate. Quite disappointing

Absolutely fantastic place food was great and the staff were super friendly and wonderful with my kids will definitely be back.

Great staff service food drink.. wine beers etc sold as well. Great find

Venue, staff, service and coffee were to knotch. One of the best coffees ever .
I would encourage them to get a bacon & egg roll on the menu, as i wad dying for one. The granola did hit the spot though.

Beautiful meals hot when served....lovely atmosphere....staff friendly. We were very content

A dash of vinegar in cooking poached eggs may be fine for some folks but not half a bottle ! Over powered the eggs. Mentioned to mgr/0wner but blaise and doubt if it will be addressed.. Service was pedestrian. We all sat with finished plates on the table. No inclination to clear them so I asked. No offer for post meal coffees. Apart from the eggs, all enjoyed the food at reasonable prices. Good coffee and lass on the machine is good.

May be the only place which caters for vegetarian, gluten free clients. Quick and good service, attentive and majority of waitresses cordial in their manners.

Great food and atmosphere and I liked the music. A good place to kick back and relax.

Great relaxed atmosphere and best coffee in Portarlington

Excellent Cafe! Fantastic food. Reasonable prices. Lovely, friendly staff and great service. Coffee was so good I bought a bag of it. Can't recommend highly enough.

My new favourite cafe, and the bean they use is called Ex Wife. The best thing to ever happen to me, is to have an ex wife.

Great breakfast friends service and very reasonable prices

Tim and rose are great and food and coffee sensational...highly recommended...

Best coffee in the area. Breakfast is generous and prices are reasonable.

Dropped in for a late breakfast on Saturday, friendly place, great food, simple and well cooked, (loved the fat chips) decent coffee and service. Oh, and the prices were very reasonable, we'll be back

Lovely friendly cafe with fresh food and plenty of gluten free options for coeliacs

Great views. In the main street. Open early to late afternoon. Great atmosphere. Very busy . Limited food choices. Friendly service staff.
