Now that we're closing, are you worried about getting your delicious ?

Don't worry. We've got bags in the cafe so that you can stock up before we're gone. Chat with Lee about the best way to brew it at home on whatever piece of equipment you're using.

This is a tough post to make and the decision was even tougher. For a number of reasons and with a number of factors considered, we have decided to close our cafe.
We have had a great time serving the locals around the Totty shops and have enjoyed getting to know so many of you.
While we will obviously miss our little spot this isn't the end for Dodo's Delights. Stay tuned here on the socials and on our website for some changes as we continue to sell all of Rhonda's delicious home cooking.

Amazing what you find behind stuff stuck on the walls! The barber shop mirrors we removed revealed just a couple of colour schemes which preceded our own. We’re starting on our ‘blank slate’ getting ready to make the shop our own! #painting #renovation #comingsoon #melbournecoffee #melbournecafe #cafe #coffee #tottenham #westfootscray #westisbest #dodosdelights

Dodo is off today so Lee gets to choose the tunes. No Englebert Humperdinck on the record player today. Sorry Mum!

It’s Fathers Day in the dining room so Lee knicked one of Dad’s favourite records to play. #fathersday #diningroom #sunday #records #vinylrevival #monacastlehotel

A nostalgic menu and nostalgic music. Bring your old records down to the #monacastlehotel and Rhonda will play them while you dine with us. #diningroom #record #music #vinyl #vinylrevival

When Lee was having his ‘preserving lessons’ with Grandma, Grandpa warned him to be careful when stirring. He said that if you stir back the other way the mixture would return to its original state. Does this count for these #boomerang video things? Orange marmalade available on our website and at Ballan Lions community Market and Cherry Lake Market by Lions Club of Altona this weekend.
