"This cafe will be my go to brekkie stop in Richmond. Business travel and staying in motels is so boring. The Black Duck Espresso Cafe took away my ennui. So few baristas make memorable macchiatos. In my mind this is the test for any cafe. The macchiato was so good I went back for a second. Great blend, well constructed, just the right length and a gorgeous flavour. My brekkie was the ubiquitous and much maligned smashed avocado with trimmings and a fried egg on top. This dish was also a winner. The rest of the menu was interesting with sufficient variety to keep most happy. The staff are delightful. I had a great start to my day. Back there tomorrow."

"You don’t get service like this anywhere these days. No only is the food unbelievable and quite honestly the nicest I have had in a long time, the staff are so incredibly friendly and amazing. I turned up after closing time not realising, they still gladly made my food with a smile and so welcoming that they have a life long customer here. Honestly either the food or the customer service is enough on its own to keep me coming back. But to have both is incredible. I can’t rave enough. Thanks so much guys xx"

"Nice coffee. Very quick service, and the ladies are super friendly. Breakfast was also good. I just had eggs on toast, but it was tasty. It gets busy with the local RAAF and police as well as regulars and visitors like me, but worth the short wait."
