Veruca Salt - Kurunjang

A charming little cafe in the beach side suburb of Elwood, Veruca Salt serves up wonderful coffee and food to happy locals. It was really busy when we popped in, but the staff were still sweet and service was prompt and efficient.<br/ <br/ Our coffee was rich and creamy, and we enjoyed some delicious crumpets and homemade slice. Both were really tasty, and great for a mid morning snack. Veruca Salt is a cosy cafe that is welcoming and definitely worth returning to.

Veruca Salt is a cute cafe with an interesting food selection. They make a great coffee, which I paired with the Super Breaky and Veggie Omelette shared between two). The breaky was a large serve and beautifully presented. I only wish the serve of haloumi was larger for the price. The omelette was huge and topped with salad. The flavour was just alright because the tomatoes weren't very fresh and the capsicums were obviously jarred. There's a lot of potential for this place which a few simple swaps could fix. :<br/ <br/ To end on another positive note, the service was prompt and staff were really friendly.

Veruca Salt in Elwood is an upbeat cafe with a beach side vibe showcasing modern cafe food and excellent coffee in a contemporary setting. The cafe situated along Ormond road offers a small amount of seating out the front, with ample seating inside featuring large round share tables out the back and cosier seating options for two closer towards the front near the bar. <br/ <br/ Sunday afternoon adventures found us in Elwood in search for a feed. Ormond road was busy with cafe goers much alike even though it was past the brunch rush hour almost hitting 2 o’clock. With tummies rumbling and a late lunch needed asap, Veruca Salt caught my eye and looked appealing due to it not being overly busy. <br/ <br/ We entered to be greeted by friendly staff who didn’t care where we sat. We sat out in the back room along the comfortable pillowed chairs and viewed the menu that was waiting for us. The menu features all day breakfast as well as hearty meals served for lunch with numerous assortment of mouthwatering sandwiches. We firstly ordered a long black along with a refreshing classic ginger beer as we still analysed the menu.<br/ <br/ The drinks arrived very quickly and where excellent. One can never go wrong with a classic Bundaberg ginger beer on ice quenching ones thirst as it touches your lips. The long black was a well deserve caffeine pick me up and brewed well. The brew was dark, thick and strong with heavy hazelnut aromas that where pleasing. <br/ <br/ As the staff returned we where keen to order as it was now almost 2.30. We picked wisely going for the chicken schnitzel burger as well as the bircher muesli. As we waited patiently for our meals, reading the paper that was on offer it was only moments before our dishes arrived looking outstanding. The chicken schnitzel burger with panko crumbed chicken breast, coleslaw on a brioche bun with fires and sweet chilli and sour cream was a generous serving and a mighty tasty meal. The crumbed chicken was cooked to perfection, nice and moist falling apart easily. The coleslaw dressed the bun well and the addition of melted cheese that oozed into the chicken was dreamy. The highlight would have to be the french fries that were nice and crispy and pair well with the OG combo of sweet chilli and sour cream. <br/ <br/ The bircher muesli featuring grated apple, pear and apricot, blackcurrants, pistachios, strawberries and hung yoghurt was a refreshing flavoursome dish. The bircher was creamy and thick, littered with chunks of sweet apricot and crunchy pear. The addition of poached spiced pear on top combined with the utterly exquisite tart hung yoghurt sent the palate into over drive. The textual crunch from the pistachios and fresh berries where great and the added sweetness of the dried fruit ensured this dish was flawless. <br/ <br/ Veruca Salt is a pleasant cafe run by friendly accommodating staff that serve decent food and coffee in a relaxing environment. The we’ll priced menu offers something for all and the produce is of the best quality ensuring one will leave with a full belly and on a caffeine high.
