OMG! I can not believe there is a place like this in Balwyn! Finally I don't have to travel miles for a real coffee, some decent service and a good vibe! After only finding you last week I am now a daily visitor (see if you can guess....) and can not tell enough people about what you guys have brought to the area! YAY! Keep up the great work guys!!!!!

Dear Raj, [The very nice young waitress told me the chef's name].Was very impressed with the lemon slice i tried while passing through this morning. Any chance of sharing your recipe so I can try it myself. Like most items of cooking I'll give it a go, try and recapture the taste then end up coming back down and eating at the cafe. In the hope that you pass on the recipe. With thanks, Karylene. [Feb 09]
So good to see a well run cafe on this side of town; great food and vibe. Don't get a sign, because then it will be too busy!! [Feb 09]
What a great Cafe! Really love the fit-out so now, unlike most in the area. It's a little tricky to find, but have found a cafe to return to over and over - have been twice in two days!! Iced coffee right up there with the best, and food extremely fresh and tasty. Staff very friendly and welcoming. Keep it up Snowpony - we will be spreading the word. Pity about idiots/graffiti!!

Great place! Staff friendly, with no attitude and the food is fantastic. Great coffee..the banana bread was amazing and they even have tic tocs for the kids. Can get noisy, but there is a great side patio to sit in the sun. Cool tunes - rock on pony! [Feb 09]
Great cafe! We loved their menu; only found it last week and have been back 3 times! Hard to find though- they need a sign out the front. [Jan 09]
friends told us about snow pony.. we couldn't believe there was actually a 'cool' cafe opened in Balwyn!! we were excited to say the least!! awesome coffee and food, their banana bread is AMAZING!! they do it with honeyed marscapone and drunk berries.. cool vibe, fitout is really cool with industrial style lights and a huge pic at the back which they are apparently changing every couple of months... they use all the right ingredients to make an awesome cafe in my thoughts - greens eggs, phoenix organic drinks, noisette breads, and organic fruit and veg where possible.. i think this joint will be one to watch, as the owners obviously know what makes a good cafe!!!
This place is a little gem hidden in the endless expanse of bad food and coffee that typifies this side of town. It has a very trendy ambience, with with a simply gorgeous (and original) large photograph on the wall in the front room and a cosy courtyard and backroom. The coffee is consistently brilliant with a good, full bodied flavour. The food is also outstanding - the Snow Pony scrambled eggs (with herbs and goats cheese) are just delightful. The only downside is how noisy it gets in there sometimes, especially when there are too many bratty children...argh! But all in all, terrific cafe that has got so many important things right and a god-send to us coffee/food lovers on this side of town...you could almost believe you are somewhere trendy! [Jan 09]
love the pony, they have also now just put up a roof over the side patio with heaters for winter.. the staff are great, and the food is truly outstanding for a cafe. Coffee is always consistant and creamy with no bitterness. Def one of my fave cafes
Awesome little cafe over here in the burbs! We used to always go to its older brother Porgie and Mr Jones in Hawthorn, but now SP is just around the corner we are pumped; and now the barista from Porgies is at SP so the coffee is perfect, never sour or bitter, and exactly the right temperature. They\'re now putting a courtyard out the back as well in readyiness for Spring, they just keep improving the place, my wife has actually booked her 40th there as they do private functions at night as well. A must have is the mashed avocado breaky dish they do; order it with a side of bacon and a poached egg - you will be hooked! [Aug 09]
Wow!!! Read about this place in this month's gourmet traveller so went to see it and it seems EVERY person in Balwyn knows about it - it was packed! We waited 20 mins for a table, but it was worth it; great little cafe, especially out the side on the patio. We cant wait to go back next weekend [Dec09]
Great coffee, and the staff manage the stress of a very popular cafe quite well. [Feb'10]
