When I first moved to Altona meadows Allegro had just opened and I enjoy coffee there at least. Wonderful cafe although it would be lovely if the staff.were smiling when they greet their customers. Thanks

I've been going to this place for so many years now, and still to this day. The staff and service are really good. The coffers are delish and their inside atmosphere is better than looking out into the shopping centre food court

Easily the best oat milk latte in the area. I’ve been to many coffee places over the years and this has always been my top standard. The staff are friendly and bubbly, and the quality is always consistent. Gem in the meadows.
