VELO LOUNGE

Velo Lounge is that chill place you hit up when you want a breakfast that’s better than your average greasy spoon. The lounge breakfast and smashed avocado toast are crowd-pleasers, but don't expect to roll out the red carpet just yet. The décor is bright and fun, and if you need a spot to kick back with your mates, this place will do the trick. Just don’t get too comfortable—service can be hit or miss, with a bar lady who seems to wish she was anywhere but here.

You’ll find a mix of patrons, from students to families, so it’s got that community vibe going for it. Despite a few hiccups with service, it's mostly all good times and decent food. If you’re in the area and craving a relaxed brunch, give it a shot. But if you're expecting fine dining, keep dreaming.
