Boom Cafe & Dining Eastwood

Very friendly staff. Best fusion Korean food in Eastwood ! The combination of gochuchang, spice and flavours in both their wraps and their pastas gave it an original and inventive twist ! Also beetroot infused wraps take away the boredom of the classic white wraps...and everything was flavourful. The coffee they serve is aromatic and whole. Would recommend for just coffee to go or if you manage to get a table on the busy weekends, try out their food. Only critique is that the store itself is small and seating it limited. It can be quite noisy inside, it will be hard for a private conversation.

Food was really tasty and well presented. There was not much service since you order and pay at the counter. They don’t bring water to the table even though it is not a cheap cafe! I would definitely go back for the food as it was great and I liked their menu items!!

6/10/25 - 2.5 stars Not a bad location and generally nice suburban vibes. Open air design and minimalist decor are neat. Found the service adequate, but, the food and drinks were disappointing. Definitely not worth the price. Hojicha latte Intensity: B, 6/10. Watered down too much. Creaminess: A, 7/10. Value: C, 5/10. $8 is not an outrageous piece but, for this, it is. Bulgogi burger Flavour: B, 6/10. Where is this bulgogi? This was a normal beef burger. Not even a good one. Texture: B, 6/10. Again just so average or even subpar. Patty was not very juicy. Value: B, 6/10. $22. Prawn salad Flavour: S, 8/10. Not bad. Liked the spicy balsamic Texture: S, 8/10. Decent mix Value: A, 7/10. $20 is reasonable. Bulgogi beef side: B, 6/10. Dry and not very flavourful. Boom carbonara Flavour: A, 7/10. Would be better if sauce wasn't so watery Texture: S, 8/10. Pasta was well cooked. Value: A, 7/10. $24 Prawn toast: B, 6/10. $25 is too much for this dish.

I have been eyeing on this cafe for a while now since any Asian-fusion is my kinda go to when I look out for food, and plus I live in Epping, which is just a train stop away. The cafe set up was quite minimalist and cozy, it was packed when I went there and lots of patrons were clearly having a great time with their friends and loved ones. The staff was quickly registered my entrance with a warm smile and guided me into one of the seats that weren’t so obscure to the more occupied guests. So yes, the atmosphere and vibe were great also. I ordered the Kimchi Carbonara, one of the most popular dishes - it’s the best combination of the signature Korean and Italian cuisine. Or, should we say, just slapping the most common yet defining food item from those two countries, kimchi and you know, the white cream pasta haha. But hey, it was surprisingly tasty and full of flavors, imagine your most favorite carbonara now comes with two of the most appetite opening flavors - the settle spiciness and sourness, all from the kimchi (and also those succulent pan fried prawns!!) surely you will get this down into your belly in no time. Well, I know I did at least. However, the actual highlight of the day was the Black Sesame Latte that I ordered. It was just the right amount of sweetness and the bitterness from the sesame, one the best drink that I had in a while. And, even tho both item were in a more heavier side, but oddly it was such a perfect complementary to the Kimchi Carbonara that I ordered. Haven’t tried any of their coffee but don’t think they would’ve been on the disappointment side either (which gave me a good reason to come back soon!) If you love a good coffee, or just some quality food that will excite your taste buds, or perhaps just a long catch up with your friends, this will be one of the best place you can go in Eastwood. Highly recommended!

Highly recommend.A perfect blend of traditional Korean flavors with modern brunch twists. The atmosphere was cozy and stylish, and every dish we tried was delicious. Will definitely come back!
