The Lilydale General

Quality cafe near the Yarra Valley! Food is always top notch and the menu is always fresh. On top of all that, they showcase beans from Axil Coffee Roasters and the baristas at the General are the best in the area. Keep up the great work!

Great food and quick service. Only bad thing to say about it is the noise when sitting inside - hard to have a conversation with others. Apart from that, fantastic cafe.

The decor is rustic style with a concrete floor predominately grey and white, lots of natural wood, a splash of colour provided by some lime green chairs. Superb local boutique roasted coffee, nutty with high notes and a smooth creamy after taste, brewed in a Marzocco Linea espresso machine, by an excellent Barista. A good range of fresh baked cakes, muffins, baguettes, croissants, salads are displayed in a large refrigerated cabinet, plus an extensive menu and board daily specials. We found the service excellent, making this a very popular cafe with the locals.
