Oliver Brown - Burwood

I'm surprised to find that there're two OB in Burwood. One is here, right opposite the Burwood train station. It's an independent house. They have both indoor seating and outdoor seating. But when it's cold in winter, no one likes to sit outside. But the seats inside the shop are limited and crowded. I ordered #Mixed berry Waffle# and it's really bad. The berry were sour and I felt like I would not have any more. And the take away box is not suitable for such desserts. When I carried it home, the entire box was stained in the color of berries.

Much like many Oliver Brown outlets, I've never had a problem with anything I've ordered, except for this one... I was told that I would have to wait 20 minutes for the churros as they are only made in the morning. - ATTENTION: Yes, I was confused too don't worry. In any event I had time to kill and ordered the churros and a coffee. The service was great though, very friendly but friendly service isn't enough when your food disappoints. Unfortunately the churros weren't the best, they tasted slightly burnt. Coffee was strong(just how I like it) but not bitter which was good. I'm very surprised that the OB in burwood across from the Choc Pot has survived this long, they might need to step up their game if you ask me in terms of executing their desserts properly...

Went here yesterday with two friends. Oh my gosh, delicious! Melted chocolate is absolutely on par with Max Brenner. Bonus is that the menu is way more extensive. I had the chocolate souffle which was yummy. My friend had a crepe which looked great, and we also got a 'choc mountain' - an absolutely indulgent ice cream bowl with three flavours of chocolate ice cream, plus brownie pieces, whipped cream, chocolate sauce and chocolate wafers. Phew! Oddly, though, it also came with a layer of cornflakes at the bottom.. Not sure what's up with that, but I sure can't wait to be back!

They were mopping the floors and cleaning up for the night. So although we were unable to get a coffee, they were more than happy to make us a hot chocolate. After traipsing around Burwood looking for a cafe that was still open for service at 10.30pm, the hospitality was appreciated.

The Belgium Mocha and Hot Chocolate here are superb. Being a tea lover I was delighted that they offer a great selection of tea as well. The desserts on display are amazing (only if they are freshly made). If you are unlucky you may get a dessert that is not so fresh and will have to struggle to finish it. The waffles and fondue are a must-try here.
