Durk's Cafe + Eatery Box Hill

What a waste of money, coffee was terrible but I’ll give that each to there own everyone likes a different coffee. but for the price the food was rubbish ate like 3 freezer burnt chips and a few bites of my 2$ Cole’s processed heart shaped schnitzel. the gravy was almost cold packet mix that tasted wrong never again, as for service well you order yourself from the counter which is fine but nothing positive to comment on.

We ordered the Durks big brekkie, awesome, our eggs were scrambled, the whole dish comes together, I recommend their food we will be back to try more! Thank you, pleasant experience. I will add if youre happy with your plate moving around like mine I enjoyed fighting for every morsel haha.

I ordered a fresh juice without ice and was charged an extra $2 — with no extra juice provided to justify the surcharge. The glass was the standard size and nothing in the menu or at the counter indicated this additional cost beforehand. Charging customers more simply for removing ice, without increasing the product, is unreasonable and misleading. If there is an extra charge, it should be clearly disclosed upfront and reflect actual added value — not a hidden penalty. This kind of pricing practice erodes trust and leaves a poor impression, which is disappointing given how easily it could be avoided with transparent communication. Furthermore, the açai we ordered for dine in was watery and diluted. Quality for the customer doesn’t seem to be valued. Disappointing.

The food here is tasty. I had the eggs benedict and the hollandaise was great. This place was very clean and I would recommend eating here if you are in the shopping centre. It was quite busy at 1pm on Saturday but there were free seats. This cafe seemed to be the most popular in the mall and I would assume this is due to the food.

I have been coming to durk’s cafe for a long time almost every week because my son loves the chicken tacos and buttermilk pancakes. Food is 10/10, coffee and other drinks are good too, only giving 3 stars because of the staff that doesn’t even greet customers and not warm welcoming specially the lady with blonde hair and glasses and the white tall guy who makes the coffee. I always have to ask for cutlery. Even though it’s not busy i can see quite a few tables were dirty so i had to switch a couple of times.
