Mercy cafe has the most consistent coffee in East Geelong and the customer service is always spot on! I loved watching this little coffee shop grow and build out over the last few years and the scenic setting in the gardens is relaxing. Highly recommend if you are visiting the east Geelong Golf club or the gardens or perhaps go out of your way and grab a coffee you will enjoy it.

Jan 2024 update - everything is still so good! I visitied on a busy Sunday morning and the vibe was excellent... Thanks team, for being our local favourite cafe. This unassuming little container cafe co-located with the East Geelong Golf Club over-delivers every time! The coffee really is some of the best in Geelong but it's probably best known (and loved) by East Geelong locals and walkers in the East Geelong Botanic Gardens area. The team also put on Friday night and weekend meals and run the bar in the Club itself. The best way to find out what Mercy has going on is to follow them on social media - you will not be disappointed...

Mercy tips the scale as the best unique Cafe offer in Geelong expertly crafted coffee by great Baristas - sits over looking the 18th hole of the East Golf course amongst the bush like setting of the East Gardens - limited yet outstanding food and beverage menu to fit the stylish conversion of a shipping container - great for both kids and dogs to discover the surrounding bushland.

Fantastic vibes here at Mercy with a nice simple menu which is honestly so good! I had the bruschetta and that was divine. Coffee is great too (Mikro beans).
