Checked this again today, and the service is still good. I like a place with magazines and daily papers out for people to read, and they're still here, Menu is good cafe stuff and a good range.

What Guillaume Lemaitre doesn't like about Cafe Alibi:

Located in the high rises of western Civic, this busy cafe has received mixed reviews on its food quality. While some diners were disappointed in the oily and unsatisfactory dishes, others praised the cafe for its delicious and quick meals. Service at this cafe stands out for its exceptional quality, with staff members known for being friendly, attentive, and accommodating. Regular patrons appreciate the top-notch service, commenting that even hatted restaurants in Melbourne lack the level of attentiveness found at this cafe. With a focus on providing a pleasant dining experience, this establishment also offers a range of newspapers for guests to enjoy while they dine. Overall, while the food quality may vary, the consistent and high-quality service sets this cafe apart.
