Friction Cafe in Essendon
A new café on the foodie scene is Friction located at Essendon Fields in Essendon. It has a modern interior with lovely table and chairs.


Everything looked great on the menu and it was hard to choose what we would like to eat. We decided on the Waffles, the Smashed Avo with added egg and bacon and the Corn and Zucchini Fritters with added salmon. The Smashed Avo was a generous serving size and great value for money. And it was delish!

The Corn and Zucchini fritters was lovely and light with delicious fresh flavours.

The Waffles smelt great! We couldn’t wait to enjoy start eating those. The ice-cream didn’t melt so we could enjoy them after eating our other dishes. The Waffles were really good and we loved the hazelnut chocolate flavour.

The café was easy to find and there is plenty of parking. We felt it had a nice relaxing environment and the staff were very friendly. The food was great tasting and well presented.
We thank Friction Essendon for a lovely Saturday morning breakfast. All of our opinions are genuine and are based on our experience at the time of our visit.
