About Shingle Inn Knox
If you're after a coffee and something to eat while you're out at Knox Shopping Centre, Shingle Inn is a handy spot in Wantirna South. It sits right beside the main food court in a big, open area with plenty of seating, high chairs for little ones and a wheelchair-accessible car park nearby, which makes it an easy stop for families.
Shingle Inn is a chain with a long history of hand-made cakes and pastries, and the Patty Cakes are the iconic item. This is a café first, though, and customers often mention lattes, matcha, milkshakes, toasted sandwiches and the big breakfast. The coffee gets particular praise, with one local calling it hot and strong, just the way it should be, and another noting the generous cup size and the neat coffee art on top.
You can dine in, take away or have orders delivered. Breakfast, brunch and lunch are all on offer, along with dessert, and there are gluten-free options. They also take custom cake orders and do catering if you're planning something bigger.
The staff are a real part of the appeal. The service here tends to be friendly and welcoming, and a waitress named Lila gets warm mentions for her bright smile and kindness toward everyone who comes in. A couple of people have felt the service was brusque on their visit, and one found a meal underwhelming for the wait, so it can depend on who's on and how busy it is.
It suits a relaxed morning coffee, a casual date or a bite with the kids while you're shopping. Check the hours before you head in, as they differ slightly across the week.
