Machine Laundry Cafe

We have eaten here before and always look forward to coming back. Excellent menu, we had the 'Fat Boy's roti that had grilled chicken and vegetables with peanut sauce. Their coffee is always amazing and it's in a great area at Salamanca. If you are in town eat here...oh and you can do your washing here. Really.

Generous portions, we ate delicious big breakfast and hot coffees. Love their home style savoury beans! Very popular cafe fast friendly service — indoor/outdoor dining

Loved the breakfast options while doing laundry. Super helpful and kind staff, and can get coins from the Cafe side. They sell detergent too! Quick and clean washing units, some are currently being serviced, so may need to wait for a machine if busy. Had the excellent Parmesian and Pancetta Pancakes (small portion available), smoothie, and a great iced coffee with ice cream. Great concept place that really gave this long traveler a great start to her day. Thank you!

Such a great menu! Creative as well as tasty, with good sized serves. Excellent service. The savoury pancakes both highly recommended. And no surprise that the muffins, savoury and sweet, both ran out while we were there. It's not often I have dessert with breakfast, but a shared raspberry and dark chocolate muffin was magnificent! Highly recommended!!

Great coffee, friendly table service, tastiest breakfast I have had had in years. Ordered Tom's Thing (vegan) with an added poached egg. I come here every time I visit Hobart, consistently good.

Best brunch experience during my time in Hobart! Great location, amazing ambience, quirky decor with the laundromat and vibrant colours all over. The staff have great service attitude, shout out to the good work ❤❤❤ a must go when you’re in the area☺ food wise, can’t really go wrong with anything on the menu. I’m personally not one for sweet food but the hot cakes were not too sweet and the combination of flavours is just right!! We had the Magic Mushies and Thom’s Thing which are really flavourful too.

Had the best experience here today. We’ve been traveling for a while and really needed to find a way to get laundry done quickly. Got here on Saturday morning and place was packed for breakfast with mostly locals not even doing laundry. A bunch of washing machines were out of order but got one right away and the dryer got everything dry. Had a really good breakfast. Service is definitely slow but seems like they’re just a nice small business that’s super popular on weekends and they’re going as fast as they can. Everyone was really nice there.

A very big shoutout to the friendliest staff members here, thank you so much for being so accommodating and attentive!

The cafe offers a quirky, vintage style design with delicious brunch and coffee. Their coffee is good and their meals are big portions. You can opt to sit indoors or outdoors, where you can enjoy the sun on a good day. There are also laundry machines available here.

Loved the theme and menu! You can actually do your laundry and it’s a Cafe.

I have had breakfast a couple of times on my visit to hobart and the food has always been delicious. Service is good with a quirky atmosphere. I had the Thoms thing which included mashed avo, haloumi n chick peas. It wad delish! Highly recommend it.

Outstanding brunch spot. The best eggs Benedict I've had in Australia, and my wife loved the French toast. Great atmosphere and staff too. Bring your laundry because they actually have machines! Super cool spot.

A salamanca institution. Great cafe. Good coffee, delicious food. Quite a funky vibe and I think it's even an operational laundrymatte? Hence the name...
This is a great place to start your day If you're in the area, and know where to find it.

Phenomenal. Service was fast. Coffee served in a bucket was amazing. Breakfast filled Roti was delicious. Highly recommended! A+++

Nicest staff, super friendly. Delicious breakfasts every time and amazing coffee. Our go to whilst in Hobart for breakfast. Only place we eat at for breakfast. Seriously delicious. Can not more highly recommend and will continue to do so. Thank you all for breaking the fast.

Tasmania trip (last minute as usual due to ever changing covid restrictions 🤦🤣). Breakfast at @machinelaundrycafe - not many options around for breakfast on boxing day, but luckily they were open! Lovely food and an interesting space! Lots of people with dogs too 🙂.
.
Machine packed roti bread: with scrambled eggs and chilli jam. This is one of their signature dishes - nicely done. The roti was good, and the eggs were tasty. Can't complain!
.
The old new egg dish: scrambled eggs with feta, garlic sourdough, beetroot relish, crispy pancetta. Delicious scrambled eggs! Adding the pancetta is a must 🙂.

Excellent food and service. The idea of putting coffee in a bowl is more than excellent that I finally find one Cafe that so generous to beat the fake sophistication of drinking coffee in a small potion. The menu is a little pricy but worth to spend if you are seeking for a special brunch.

Great little cafe set in a back alley of Salamanca Place. Filled with locals, this quirky spot serves a great breakfast and excellent coffee. A great and simple breakfast menu combined with an extensive blackboard menu. The staff were friendly and efficient, and their style and character suited the cafe/laundrette vibe (it is a real laundromat and you can bring your dirty clothes to wash while you eat!).

Not a lot of options on a Hobart public holiday but glad to have discovered this cafe in the absence on my favourite. Awesome chilli jam roti wrapped scrambled eggs and coffee

The food is outstanding! The menu hasn’t changed much in over 20 years but take that as a testament to how good it is. It was amazing then when Machine first opened and is is still amazing now. Coffee is nice but the real winner is the food.

Great cafe with superb brekkie and generous portions. Very busy for Sunday brunch and had to wait a while for coffees but wasn't a long wait for rest of our order. Roti with herb scrambled egg seemed to a crowd favourite.
