"A delightful place either just for a night out or a special occasion"
Billygoat Hill is a place we can get breakfast in till 3 o'clock you can also get lunch and dinner. When you go to there The first thing on your Menu I think is the best it is the make your own adventure it is where you get to choose from a variety of stuff like bacon eggs anyway you want and add all the stuff what toppings my stepbrother Brooke he's a bit fussy any only likes white bread and one day he came with us to Billygoat another plane bedroll and you know what they gave him a plane bagful my point is that if you want something a little special is they probably make it for you also it's superfast and it's really cheap to get stuff you know how it is when you go to a really fancy restaurant it burns a hole in your pocket well if you go to Billygoat that will not happen My brother he is really fussy he's very picky and located for him in every shape way and full of eating that it's a cook your food for the upmost perfection I doubt that you would find better quality food anyway that also makes the best milkshakes ever When you get there you pick your insights and soon after a waiter or waitress will come and take your order you can order off the breakfast menu until 3 Pm then you have to order off the lunch and dinner menu When I walked into this amazing place I didn't think that it would be very cheap so I told Mum that maybe we had to go home but I soon saw that it was amazingly cheap for the amazing food that you got for the amazing price it was amazing if I haven't already said that amazingly many times I could go on and on and on about how good Billygoat Hill is but my tummy is starting to rumble and I feel like I could go for a cheese and tomato croissant right now with my delicious milkshake that I order hey maybe I'll see you there one-day what if you come right now you will see me there because that's where I'm haveing dinner bye for now
My husband, sister and I went in to sit down and have coffee. We were aware my sister's pram was a slight issue with taking inside so she was prepared to fold it up and get it out of the way. The waitress made it very clear that the pram was in the way and it needed to be placed outside, we agreed and my sister was more than happy to move it out. The waitress could not give us a chance to get the kids seated and the todler in the high chair before hounding us two more times that the pram was in the way. Once the todler was restrained in the high chair my sister folder the pram up and got it out of the way. We left their feeling like we weren't welcome with kids. We found the staff member rather rude and ruined our morning out. We all agreed we will not be returning after the treatment we received. Being locals we regularly head into town for coffees. We will go elsewhere here on in. If you do not want to accommodate children or mums with prams maybe you should pop a sign up on your door.

How good is this place? Comfy, super friendly and easy to get to. Watching the staff interactions with the clientele was a pleasure. The girls behind the counter were clearly a joy to all who entered. Great stuff for first thing in the morning. I had the muesli and it was great , only reason it didn’t get 5 stars was cause I thought a tiny bit more would have been awesome. Coffee was good and extra strong as requested. I enjoyed the visit so much I stayed for an extra coffee. I’m all caffeinated and ready to roll. Yea hah!

LOVE THIS PLACE!!! Its taken me & my partner a LONG time to find somewhere to eat out where we haven't been disappointed with the food and or service We love the atmosphere, the friendly staff & especially the food!! The soup was beautiful & the piece of toasted bread to go with it, as simple as it sounds, so delicious. I have not had a steak as mouth watering & tender as i have at the Billy Goat & every single bite of food on the entire plate is just delicious, including those little fried potatoes from heaven! Huge shout out to you all at the Billy Goat, we are locals & discovered you unfortunately only 6 months ago, we've been 4 times now & are so thankful we have finally found somewhere even remotely close to us, that is AMAZING Thank you so much!!
A delightful place either just for a night out or a special occasion. Small and intimate devoid of those menus and whine list that take an hour to read. The menu is influenced by seasonal produce locally sourced as is the wine list with both more than adequate for the discerning dinner. The service was great and the cost reasonable. We had a party of four and selected the grazing platters, Pork cutlets (2) and Fettuccine Squid (2)- all commented on how good their respective dishes were.. The talking point was the baby squid tentacles on the grazing plate - absolutely outstanding and unique. One tip - make sure you book in advance - I heard a number of diners trying to get a table on Saturday night turned away
I ordered the steak sandwich which I found absolutely delicious. The steak was juicy and tender, not chewy in the slightest, the other topping and sauces all combined perfectly to make an amazing sandwich. Although I thought it was a bit of a shame that it didn't come with any sides, but it was still worth it. Nice decor with a clean interior, although the music was a touch loud, if I visited again, I would choose to eat outside. In addition, the staff were friendly and accommodating.
Wanted to try this place for a while and was very happy with what my partner and myself received. Staff a very lovely, special mention to the chef who I assume is the owner (I could be wrong), he was so entertaining and full of life. I ordered the Big Garden and my partner Big Billy's. Both so delicious! The scrambled eggs were so buttery and fluffy, the potato roesti was so yum and their BGH beans were awesome! Definitely going to make this place a regular!
A small and intimate space, but this is no downside. Billy Goat has a beautiful interior and there is some lovely outside seating as well. Milkshakes are perfect - with great flavour. My partner enjoyed the coffee too (I don't drink it, so can't comment). The food is good value for money too - it is beautiful and fresh, with decent serving sizes. With friendly and helpful staff, I haven't really ever seen a negative to this cafe - it is well worth a visit.
I used to love this place. Breakfast was great and baked beans were fantastic. That was few years ago. Went there few weeks ago for Sunday breakfast . Guessing they've changed the recipe, because beans were nowhere near as good. And it was 1/3 of what it used to be? What happened? You pay $4 for a table spoon portion of beans . Bread was dry and to top it up my coffee had hair in it. Will not be going back. Service and food not the same.
Horrible experience. First time coming to this cafe and will never come again. After having waited over 45 min, they forgot my meal. Secondly, we asked for no chilli in one of the meals - the meal came out insanely spicy and we couldn’t eat it. No apology or compensation for these mistakes after we kindly asked for it as a gesture of good faith. Disappointing to think we spent $165 in this place. Won’t be coming back.
Poor customer experience. Waited nearly an hour for first order of 4 mains only to have the 4th main being forgetten from the order. Subsequently, waited another 10mins for Risotto to be served. We expressed our displeasure with the service only to have management quickly respond with no discount or even apology for the slow and incorrect service! Overall, extremely disappointed and would not recommend.
Found my new fav cafe. Amazing coffee, most important aspect for me! Added bonus of lovely friendly efficient staff and great food and presentation. Reasonable price for the scrumptious muslie loaded with goodies and generous serving size. Cool ambiance. And high standard of cleanliness noted Happy lady after long nightshift!

Picture this, an empty cafe at 7:15am on a Sunday, I stop in for a coffee & a cake and am seated at a table, it is then insisted upon me that I only have 15mins by multiple staff or I have to leave as someone that booked may come in (at least 15 empty tables stare back at me). Cake & coffee were good, but I’m never ever going back.

Went there for dinner recently on a cold night and they had no heating so it was freezing. My eye fillet steak meal was lovely but my husband had the rack of lamb which was not a rack, only 3 cutlets which looked really fatty and were chewy. I think it would be a nicer place to go in warmer weather but I personally won't go there again. My husband was very disappointed.
We have been in Billy Goat Hill with six friends of mine today. We live in Melbourne and we have been there for cherry picking from a farm nearby. It was great experience! Billy Goat is such a nice local restaurant. Friendly staff, great music and lovely food. I had Regional Grazing plate, Eye fillet and glass of Shiraz. Highly recommended ! I give you five stars.
A great hidden treasure in Mt Evelyn. Brunch, Great coffee and milkshake with Forest mushrooms and hand cut potatoes with aoili to share were presented on beautiful rustic crockery. I love this place and their food. It's a compact menu, but has a good vegetarian option. I will be going back to sample dinner. I loved the detail to presentation. Thumbs up from me
I was informed by the waitress that the Thai beef salad is a popular dish. I ordered it and was not impressed unfortunately. It was not authentic. The flavour of the Thai salad dressing was not balanced and too strong. As if there was too much sesame oil and ginger that it was not enjoyable to taste. The cafe was popular among the local and service was good.
Internment but not secluded Fantastic food and fantastic service and ample parking close by. Very reasonable prices

Exceptional service Enough said!
I have been there twice. The first time it was pretty good - innovative and interesting menu. The second time was really great - a group of 6 of us went in for afternoon tea and we had the grazing plate and various interesting drinks and more. It really impressed. Not cheap but still good - the chef really knows how to cook.
Best malt choc oat shake I've ever had!! Great little place, really thoughtful staff. We ordered a big breakfast to share and they logically halved it and gave us two plates. Every was really fresh and tasted great. Very clean. Lively atmosphere.

I ordered coffee and vegi roll. The coffee tasted okay but was too hot and not tamped properly. The vegi roll was tasty but was served luke-warm; it may have been colder because they where waiting for my wife's meal to cook. Service was succinct and I found the experience to be delightful. All in all I will visit again.
I loved the food, atmosphere and staff. An awesome place to eat.

3.5 Anytime of the day .... One of the more trendier cafe in Mount Evelyn, they have a new owner (correct me if I'm wrong). Plenty on the Menu, creative kitchen, rustic presentation to complement all those timber interior elements and one of the better coffee around here. Some "home-made" souvenirs to take home too.
GREAT COFFEE!! We had a lovely breakfast here (bacon, eggs, potato rosti and The Big Billy Breakfast) and the coffee was fantastic! The atmosphere is very welcoming and the staff a pleasure to deal with. If we are ever back in this neck of the woods we will be returning.
Disappointing to say the least! Made a booking, arrived on time, sat there for 20 minutes and still no service. Young staff member continued to clean coffee machine. Not even asked if we'd like to start with a drink!! Poor form. We got up and walked out. Never again.
Went once before and loved the Billy Goat Eggs Benedict (with pulled beef). Went back and Eggs Benedict wasn't even on the breakfast menu (request only) and brisket was unavailable. Salmon was not the same. Lol. I can get that anywhere. Bring back the brisket!
My partner and I have a lovely dinner here last Friday. Friendly and attentive staff. Food was a little slow to arrive but well worth the wait. I would describe my steak on mash with greens and a red wine jus as rustic, well seasoned and full of flavour.
Best coffee and food in Mount Evelyn.

With a premium cost you should get premium food. That was definitely the case with this place. A nice variety of options. Would definitely recommend. Oh they also support the local footy club and any place that supports others is a huge winner for me!
So fresh!! My fiance is coeliac and the staff were so informative on our options, not to mention how delicious it all was and so so fresh. Staff and Chef were so friendly. Can't recommend enough!

Nice cosy atmosphere, prompt and polite service. Busy around lunch time. Coffee was alright, and the food enjoyable, got the beef and Burgundy pot pie, was very nice, if not a bit too sweet. Chips were nice thick cut, and garlicky, a nice side.
I absolutely love this cafe. Great vibe created by genuinely beautiful staff who serve you with real heart. The food is fabulous, coffee matches it. I thank you everytime I come in. Thank you for being there, and thank you for being you.

Lovely service by the ladies behind the counter. My ham, cheese, tomato and seeded mustard toastie was delicious, but would have been easier to eat if cut in half and not attached to the serviette. Great coffee too!
Nice cosy clean cafe. Pleasant background music without the blarring sounds, you can actually talk without shouting and enjoy a nice breakfast. Good quality meals with plenty of variety. Staff pleasant and courtesy.
Just an amazing atmosphere, excellent food, and hands down the best background musical playlist going on in any cafe I have been to. Top notch coffee and friendly staff. Has become our regular cafe over the years.
A must for a visit to Mt Evelyn. Perfectly prepared and served with a dash of friendliness by the staff. You will find comfort here and find it hard to leave.

Loved the food and the vibe of this place. Good selection of food and drinks. A great brunch and lunch spot for a lazy Sunday. Those tomatoes in the photo were the best. You won't regret it if you like tomatoes.
I really love this place. One of the best places for great coffee that doesn't make you shudder when you drink it. The meals a great and full of flavour, the deserts are delicious and great local beer & ciders.
Making a return visit to try the open omelette with pumpkin fetta and olives again. just as jood as the first time. Coffee and service are consistently good here. Rosemary chips with garlic aoli also a winner.
Very good breakfast have been here so Many times and each time was great.

Superb service. We were a group of 11 and we were looked after very well. Nothing was too much trouble. Very friendly staff. We all enjoyed a great breakfast. Would definitely return. Highly recommended.
Cool little local cafe. Smallish place but does have indoor and outdoor tables. Food and coffee is good. Looks Like a lot of people come in for takeaway coffee as well so you know it must be good.
Today I may have possibly eaten the tastiest steak sandwich in existence. Credits to the Billy Goat Hill Brasserie

Ok Breakfast mainly because of the company The beef brisket was obviously pre cooked and microwaved so was not fresh and quite Chewy.Nothing great about it .But the waitress was Lovely
Came here for brunch after going berry picking. Absolutely loved the place. Food was good and the service was really good as well! Also 5 stars for the restroom which was super clean.
Billy Goat Hill is a great spot for a coffee or a weekend lunch. It does get rather busy on the weekend and it can be a bit tight inside, but the food and atmosphere are both great!
Chicken, mushroom, leek and feta risotto on special tonight. It was yummy! Just loved it. Dave and his staff make us feel like royalty every time. Best Thursday night repeat for us.
Nice, steady appears to source locally witch is great. Looses a star for the girl who served us today. Was putting a puppy then continued to serve food and didn't wash her hands.

Fancy presentation, I have order thai beef salad which a little bit salty though ,you must try wedges ,one of the best I have ever eaten. good value for money .
I had a delivery nearby, stop and grabbed a cappuccino. The service was friendly and the coffee was outstanding I would love to dine in one day with my family.
A great drive out to Billy Goat. Food was fabulous, my Malasian Naso Goreng was beautiful. Wifes Spanish Omelet was great as well. Great service with a smile
My morning coffee was spot on, and the egg and bacon roll was delicious! Glad to see a local cafe operating through these difficult times! Thank you …
Lovely flavoursome food. Gnocchi was good, lacked a bit of salt and would have liked a bigger portion for price. Bit noisy due to lack of soft furnishings
Nice atmos, friendly staff but if you charge top dollar you need to nail it. Small latte ($4) and slice of banana bread ($7.95) well over valued.
Charming little cafe/restaurant. Enjoyed the Mexican Brekky and some coffee. Friendly service and pleasant atmosphere!

Great brunch place! There's outdoor seating and they plant some herbs in the planter boxes. Big fan of the tomato relish - worth trying!
Friendly cafe in the centre of Mt Evelyn serving good coffee and a good selection of freshly made food and cakes. Muffins are awesome.
Honestly I don’t think I’ve ever had a bad meal or coffee here. The girls are amazing the food is even better. Highly recommend 11/10
The staff, the food, the coffee and the overall feel are just top notch! I absolutely love everything about Billy Goat …
Amazing little cafe with great food and even better customer service. I've been ooking for the perfect cafe and now I have found it.
Where do they get off charging $5 for a medium coffee? Since when is this Malvern or Toorak?!?Atleast the coffee there has flavour.
Fantastic coffee, nice staff, contemporary but warm interior. Maybe 70% of customers who walk in are locals, which tells you a lot.
Good food, pleasant staff and my extremely hot chocolate was just that! And they have plenty of GF options for my wife! WINNING!!!
Thanks for having these choc-peanut butter gf biscuits in store again today! Didn't manage to get a pic before I started on them!
