Three Williams has been on my radar for quite some time. There has been plenty of hype since it opened a couple years ago and is a frequent on social media (especially the highly Instagrammable crunchy brioche french toast), so as you can imagine I was quite excited to finally check it out.
The cafe has a trendy, minimalistic feel to it that I love instantly. Despite going for lunch, Three Williams serve their breakfast menu all day, so of course our selection featured a few breakfast dishes too. Every review raves about the coffee here, which usually I would be all over but I just couldn't pass the peppermint + vanilla tea. The tea was beautiful with a strong vanilla undertone.

The grilled chorizo + haloumi stack with eggplant, baby spinach, fried egg, sourdough and house cranberry sauce (ordered without chorizo) is delicious. The dish was bursting with flavour - the tender, juicy eggplant with the salty haloumi, a runny egg yolk on crunch sourdough (they use Sonoma miche toast, which is in a league of its own). The house cranberry sauce added an element of sweetness and cut through the rest of the dish. Amazing.
Now whoever says they don't make friends with salad hasn't tried Three Williams pulled lamb shoulder salad with roasted beets, glazed carrots, organic black pearl barley and goats cheese. This salad was honestly perfection. The lamb though, don't even get me started. SO incredibly tender. It was just divine.
For something on the sweeter side we ordered the house made granola with seasonal fruit + vanilla bean yogurt (my kind of dessert!). The granola and yogurt are hiding underneath the fruit so you can't see much but take my word for it, the granola is amazing. It tasted like an Anzac cookie in granola form.. mmmm cookie. This would make one delicious breakfast!
All in all, Three Williams got the goods! I often find when a place attracts so much hype it gets built up so much that you leave disappointed and underwhelmed. However, this is far from the case with Three Williams. The food, service and atmosphere are all winners! Get yourself to Three Williams asap. You will love it - I guarantee it.
