12 Claremont St, South Yarra - Open 7 Days
Hawthorn has no shortage of good cafés. Glenferrie Road alone has plenty of options on any given morning. So when so many Hawthorn locals make the short trip across to South Yarra to visit Two Birds One Stone Cafe, it says something.
We are a French-inspired café that takes food, coffee, and the café experience seriously. Wholesome ingredients, a kitchen that cares, and a space that makes you want to stay a little longer. That is what keeps people coming back, week after week.
Hawthorn residents know good food. The suburb has a strong café culture and people there have high expectations, which is exactly why our menu is built the way it is.
We do not rotate through the same tired dishes. Our menu changes with the seasons, built around what is fresh and at its best. The seared smoked salmon is one of our most requested dishes and for good reason. Prepared in a cured pan with beetroot and citrus, it comes with grilled asparagus, cumin-roasted zucchini, charred broccoli, a poached egg, zesty lime, and a potato-quinoa-kale rosti. It is the kind of dish that is genuinely hard to find elsewhere.
Prefer something lighter? The smoked-to-serve salmon salad brings together green beans, mango, honey rosemary dressing, baby cos hearts, and heirloom radishes. Clean, fresh, and really satisfying.
Beyond the salmon, you will find classic breakfast staples done well alongside more adventurous options for when you want to try something different. There is always something worth ordering, no matter what kind of morning you are having.
Start your day your way, with a mix of comforting classics and fresh, wholesome options. From plant-powered dishes to our signature favourites, everything is made with quality, seasonal ingredients - perfect for a relaxed, satisfying morning.
Book a Table
South Yarra and Hawthorn may be separated by the Yarra, but a good coffee is worth the short trip. At Two Birds One Stone Cafe, coffee is not an afterthought. It is one of the main reasons people visit.
We source single-origin beans and work with baristas who genuinely care about the coffee in your cup. Whether you prefer a straight black, a flat white, or something cold and iced on a warm spring morning, the result is the same. A coffee made with care and served in a space that makes you want to sit with it for a while.
Our full coffee menu includes:
Our vegan menu is not a token plant-based section tucked at the bottom of the menu. It is a genuine, well-thought-out offering that stands on its own.
Coconut Chia Pudding, Chargrilled Eggplant with grain salad and pumpkin hummus, Sauteed Mixed Mushrooms, Shakshuka, and a Veggie Burger that actually delivers. Each dish is built around seasonal produce and prepared with the same attention we give everything else that comes out of our kitchen.
