Love heading there for a nice breakfast and coffee. The quality of the food is great and the freshly baked goods amazing. Staff is very friendly and helpful. It just lacks ambience since the restaurant got redone.

Very up and down relationship with this outlet, such a great spot for breakfast but the quality of food is always a role of the dice. Today it was great! Service was great, taste and flavor of the meal was excellent, sourdough was fresh. Please keep it up peeps!!

Great breakfast venue.

Never a complaint at this establishment the service is always great and attentive. With the coffee made with a heart and as strong like I love it.

The eggs are always perfectly prepared with fluffy and yet crunchy on the edges waffles. Seasoned to perfection.

I've been to this Vovo Telo a few times now for both breakfast and lunch and I have never been disappointed. The food there is delicious and the service excellent. The ice coffee is seriously yum and salads are huge and full of goodies. Def recommend if your looking for a good breakfast/lunch spot.

Vovo Telo is walking distance from our house, so is one of our go to coffee shops! Service is good, coffee is also really good! They are also pet friendly, so our Labrador gets an outing every now and again which is great! Also really enjoy sitting inside in the mornings and watching the guys making the pastries and the smell of the bread baking is incredible! Really enjoy this spot

Had a lovely breakfast here after gym.  The place fills up very fast due to the park runs. 
I thoroughly enjoyed the English scones with the pulled pork filling.
It came in a portion of two topped with an egg each.
I must say I would've opted for the mayo on the side as it was a lot and overpowered the dish.
 But the pork was sweet and crispy, really good. The portion was large as well.
Their cappuccinos were amazing as always.

Pleasant stop for breakfast after gym. 

I enjoy the open area seats and fresh coffee. 
They have lovely Banting brekkie options and wonderful sarmies.

You can also buy bread from them which they freshly make.

Love this small cafe. Always receive service with a smile with extremely friendly and helpful staff. My favourite is their pizzas with a thin Base and tons of rocket. Also i love how their orange juice is freshly squeezed.

Had a mezze platter and pulled pork fold over wrap. Food, as always, very tasty and well presented . Pity about the noise coming from the kitchen!! Sitting on the patio trying to enjoy a relaxing lunch, wasn't happening!!! Had to ask the manager to get the kitchen staff to keep the noise down🙄🙄🙄 Vovo Telo you should train your staff to understand the difference between a restaurant environment and a taxi rank

I am a big fan of Vovo Telo, and the Lonehill branch is as great as the rest. It is so convenient to have breakfast here after Parkrun on a Saturday. Or pop over for coffee before work. Great staff, with excellent and fresh goodies always. The new Banting bread is really yummy too.

Stopped off here after our run this morning for coffee and breakfast! The coffee is amazing!! They don't have toasted sandwiches as the bread they make is difficult to toast but the manager made a special open toasted cheese for my daughter which was great!!

Nice healthy options available for breakfast - I had the scrambled egg whites with roasted rosa tomatoes with fresh avo which was delicious

Vovo is one of those places that will always be where you go if you can't be bothered to leave the area. The food is always good, but never blows me away. Service also always seems to be on the slower side. The coffee is good though and you'll never leave disappointed, but you also won't leave with your mind blown.

All the Vovo Telo restaurants are very good but Lonehill is our favorite. I had the Stanley 44 which was excellent. I had my eggs scrambled - to perfection!! The corn cake was delicious and the rosa tomatoes and bacon were brilliant. Presentation was spot on. I had mine without mushrooms, a personal preference. The rest of the party also had exquisite food. Only reason I'm scoring the experience a 4.0 was they were out of my favorite desert - the Portuguese Custard tartlets. Oh, the service was also a tad slow owing to them being extra busy. I can highly recommend the Volvo Telo - you won't be disappointed.

This place is a little gem.

They have Frankies. Which is one of the best locally made soda companies. It's awesome. Try the lemonade or old fashioned creamsoda.

The staff are warm and welcoming which puts you straight at ease.

Try the Strawberry BLT. It's alittle weird
But it is extremely good.

I make excuses just to drive up to lonehill to come try it. So worth it :)

Discovered this gem after a year of living in lonehill! And I am happy I did! The vibe is relaxed, decor is different and interesting. Friends and I had breakfast here, the food was fresh and tasty and our waitress was so friendly! We will definitely be back for lunch soon!

Freshly squeezed juices are amazing, the teas are also great and served in awesome silver wear, I often go there for breakfast and they make the poached eggs perfectly! Still need to try more from the bakery selection though

I love the decor, the relaxed vibe and the outside area undercover with a couple of gorgeous old velvet couches. The rectangular pizza is delicious. And the chicken, pesto and pecorino sandwich is heavenly. Always a win for breakfast, lunch or a coffee!

Felt like a change and came here for a brunch. I had the salmon and egg croissant but I didn't eat the croissant basket. Everything else was good. Nice venue for brunch but next time I'll ask for a soft croissant rather. Great vibe

Your first encounter at Vovo Telo is a visual one.
The look and feel of the restaurant holds promise for an excellent experience.
The decor is playful and interesting. With alot to keep your eyes wondering and your mouth smiling.

Friendly staff await at an entrance to the deck at the side of the restaurant.
The tables are spread out nicely allowing for comfort and privacy.

The menu is enjoyable to look at and is easy to comprehend.

My experience was of the breakfast hours on a Sunday.
Live music is a lovely idea but it should be acoustic so that the volume is not too loud where you have to raise your voice to be heard.

They make a decent poached egg. And their rye bread is tasty.

Vovo Telo leaves you with a sense curiosity. I will be going back to try out more of their menu.
Definitely recommended as a breakfast spot.

This is the perfect place to meet for a coffee and breakfast over a catch up with friends. The wooden deck outside offers you a nice opportunity to catch some sunlight (bring sunscreen of you plan a long catch up!)
The decor is shabby-chic with mismatched wooden tables and rugs.
The breakfast / lunch menu offers a wide variety of mouth-watering meals.
I went with a classic creamy scrambled eggs and bacon on ciabatta.
Eggs were tasty and expertly cooked and the ciabatta was tasty. The perfect compliment was the freshly squeezed orange juice.
We went on a Sunday, the day a band were hired to sing on the deck. Instead of being soothing and relaxing, the effect was the opposite.
The music was a too loud, forcing us to shout at one another to be heard. Not the ideal atmosphere for a coffee shop. We moved inside, which was then fine.

What a great place to have lunch. We have been here several time and also had a good nice meal. We have been disappointed the last time we went as they did not have stock of anything and the pick n pay was open a few meters away. The food was also not the best on this particular day

I will be going back and I just hoping it is not a trend they have started and a once off mistake.

Breakfast at Vovo Telo was delicious. The portion sizes were just right to satisfy without leaving that bloated feeling. Their beverage menu is interesting with Chocotelo being a great experience. Definitely worth a visit.

Amazing freshly squeezed Juice, fresh ingredients in their meals and friendly service. There's not much I can fault really. We went for lunch for Mother's Day, the location is nice and quiet, and all the food (we always try everyone's food at the table :)) was great, and as said, fresh. Also price wise, it is affordable for lunch. Really a good experience, and if I am in the area again, I would go back to try some other items on the menu. Thank you!

Vovo Telo has a few branches and as a quirky themed restaurant, the Lonehill setting isn't quite right for this restaurant. As a result the vibe is a little dull.

The menu has many interesting choices which all sound exciting and are sure to confuse you when trying to make a decision what to order. When the food arrives it tastes as good as it sounded on the menu and you will most probably leave having had experienced a meal you had never thought to try.

Breakfasts, sandwiches and coffees are all good. The pastas are not that great. Rather avoid to prevent disappointment. In fact even the presentation does not look good. Service is not bad. We did not wait too long for our food. Waiter was attentive and came back to check how our food was after being served.

Great spot for a quick bite and a coffee or a long lazy conversation it caters for both brilliantly. Freshly baked breads and a great menu selection catering for meat eaters and vegetarians. Staff are friendly and you are located in the lonehill shopping centre so it's easy to go shopping before it after.

they've got great mochas, and really nice breads (especially the ciabatta and mini paninis) that f you catch them when they're still warm from their oven, you could eat them just like that. give the gorgonzola and caramelised onion breads a try.
