Ashton and Old - Carindale

My partner and I regularly get our coffees here, plus we have the occasional breakfast. Always super friendly, fast service, consistently good coffee. Watch out for the freshly baked muffins on the counter!

Attractive cafe on the main drag.We were welcomed by a firm and direct welcome inviting us to sit anywhere. We perched at the front window bar seating.The first thing that struck us was how dirty the window was (cos you’re sitting about 40cms away from it) - a lot of spattering (hopefully food and not flies) that couldn’t possibly have just been from the last week. Long black arrived way to hot and within minutes looked like a Nescafé.Pork fried rice was a little on the sweet side - needed a salt or chilli kick. Pork belly pieces though were excellent.I always feel under pressure to rate a 4-5 star cafe 4 or 5 stars but we agreed that it was average.

My friend and I had lunch at Ashton and Old today for the first time and we were not disappointed! The A&O Burger was absolutely delicious, dripping with the juices of slow cooked pulled brisket combined with beetroot relish and Japanese mayo! So tasty! My friend ordered the Grilled Chicken Burger and was similarly impressed. Both burgers were served with Cajun Spiced Fries which were the perfect accompaniment. Great food, great service. Still so much on the menu to try....will definitely be back!

A little disappointed as the place looks great but the brekky was pretty average. Coffee and juice were pretty good.

This was my second visit to Ashton & Old... I've now done breakfast & lunch here. The food here is phenomenal & funky...you can certainly get a standard breakfast here but why would you want to? Whether it's breakfast or lunch, I can't go past their cheese & potato croquettes! Absolutely delicious! Coffee here is also really nice & service is friendly & attentive!
