Shelley Street Cafe in Tea Tree Gully offers a straightforward, relaxed spot ideal for local mornings and weekend stroll breaks. As a neighborhood cafe, it thrives on its approachable atmosphere where familiarity is part of the rhythm—regulars dropping in for their morning coffee or to share a quick bite after a walk seem to be the norm.

The cafe’s coffee draws consistent nods for quality and balance, making it a solid choice whether you’re after a strong start to the day or a laid-back mid-morning catch-up. Outdoor seating is clean and inviting, providing a simple, open-air experience that fits well with the casual pace of the nearby streets.

Food here leans toward classic breakfast and light snack fare, with highlights like the Bacon & Egg Wrap and the Shelley Streets Omelette marking the kitchen’s reliable, no-frills approach. The prices are reasonable, reflecting a local spot rather than a destination dining experience. While not every visitor ventures beyond coffee and baked treats, the offerings have enough appeal for those seeking freshly made sandwiches or a modest cooked meal.

Visitors can expect friendly, old-fashioned customer service with a strong community feel. The owners and staff make an effort to engage genuinely, which translates into a warm, welcoming environment that sits comfortably amid Tea Tree Gully’s day-to-day life. Weekends seem particularly popular for stopping by with dogs in tow or to choose from a modest array of cakes and cookies.

Overall, Shelley Street Cafe suits locals who appreciate straightforward coffee, a clean and laid-back setting, and a sense of connection to the people behind the counter. It’s a practical, dependable spot for breakfast or a simple coffee break rather than a bustling breakfast rush or weekend brunch destination.

Good coffee, good selection of cakes and cookies! The cooked food looks good and is well priced, but we haven't tried it. We stop by for a coffee and sometimes a baked treat most weekends when walking our dog, definitely our favourite local cafe

Highly recommend people! Great old fashioned customer service. The coffee is just perfect. The outdoor tables are clean. The food is fresh. This cafe is a little gem. Not to mention how lovely the owners are. I'd give 10 stars out of 5 if I could.

I've recently discovered Shelley's and it's become a regular part of my morning routine. Great coffee, homestyle meals, the best toasties around and very reasonably priced. Stuart and Anna have created a truly wonderful, almost country corner store vibe with old school customer service and friendliness - even the other customers are friendly! Oh and its dog friendly (outdoors) too

Have driven past this cafe many times and now finally visited. Cute little corner store vibes. Friendly staff. Fresh and delicious food. Bacon and egg roll was so good I gobbled up the first half before taking a photo. Iced coffee also very nice! We will be back.
