    Fabulous Theme Cafe that will surprise.
    A Cafe Jetty Road Brighton SA, must have the largest Marilyn Monroe Memorabilia Collection in Australia, even their calling card is an authentic copy of Marilyn's, California driving license.
    We have been dining at this Cafe for a number of years, there breakfast menu is wonderful and diverse, and is always consistently good.
    After an absence of twelve months we were back for another repeat breakfast.
    We both enjoyed a large plate loaded with scrambled eggs, good size bacon rashers, mushrooms, tomatoes, sausage and toast. While enjoying two very good coffee's, we sat back relaxing in comfortable deck chairs under the sun umbrellas outside on the kerb. Reflecting on such a wonderful, well prepared meal we had just enjoyed, along with our coffee. Reading papers supplied and free Wifi. Once again the service could not be faulted.  A Cafe is the place, for food or just a coffee, and consistently good.

    No greeting, waitress distracted and rude while taking my order. Was overcharged. Meal came out 99% wrong. No service after we had paid to ensure customer satisfaction
    2 stars for a decent portion size. Otherwise wouldn't recommend

    Only popped in to grab a take away coffee, the guy who served me was pleasant. Unfortunately one of the worst coffees!
    My flat white was half a cup of froth, with burnt milk. Just watching her on the machine I couldn't help but cringe as she destroyed ever jug of milk she touched.

    Unfortunately I haven't had a particularly good experience with this cafe. The mocha I ordered was bitter and no amount of chocolate or sugar could make it drinkable. My meal was also a bland mixture. My personal review wouldn't probably marked it as one star, however many at my table were satisfied with their meal so I could have be unlucky.

    The atmosphere is quite nice and the staff are prompt and helpful, even when you ask a lot of questions.

    Several gluten-free options available but small in comparison to all that they offer.

    I was excited to check out Brighton's new cafe strip, as I used to go down there a lot. I check the menu at A Cafe Etc, think it'll be good and promptly walk into Marilyn Land. A little overwhelming, folks!

    I give my order to the rushed looking and a little bit snappy waitress at the counter and then sit at my table. I open the front page of the newspaper and thirty seconds (maybe?) later my full English breakfast was sitting in front of me. Holy Crap that was quick! I know they'd have a lot of bubbling pots and pans going out there, but something feels a little strange about a thirty second meal delivery. On top of that it was overly greasy and for something that has the feel of a hipster cafe, wonder white is not the bread of choice.
