    Probably one of the few really professionally run Cafes in Benalla. The new decor, seating and inner-city vibe brings us back regularly. Staff are attentive but not intrusive, food is on point, contemporary and well prepared, coffee is Adelaide quality (my highest praise).

    Obliging staff gave excellent service but didn’t hover, which was good. Food and drinks were great. Nice ambience. Seats could be a little more comfortable. Overall, 9/10 .. I keep going back so must tick the main boxes.

    Lovely venue, food was good, although not a lot of gluten free to choose from, but what i had was very good. Great wine and coffee. 👍

    The food was lovely, but not a wide selection provided. Service was OK. Ambience is the main thing missing as it's a bit like sitting in a shed. Needs more decoration and better lighting to make it feel a bit more cosy. I think it is a bit noisy because it's all open and echos a bit. I would definitely not go here if I was on a date.

    The Merchant is a great new option for eating in Benalla. It’s an open and fresh space. Our lunch was delicious 😋
