Farboy Cafe is a pleasant, quiet, and clean cafe tucked away from the Mandurah foreshore, with plenty of seating (indoor and outdoor) and parking directly next to the cafe.
There is one secluded table seating outside the cafe.

Ownership of Farboy Cafe has changed (hence the majority of past reviews and photos removed from Google Maps).
Nehal (the owner) was very friendly and talkative. She plans to open the cafe at night time as well as the morning 🌙

Orders are placed at the counter.
Only one cashier/barista serviced the front; she was very friendly.

Lack of staff at the front was an issue (not sure if due to being a Saturday morning), because at one point, the cashier was on her break eating a meal at a table, and a customer stood by the counter and called out that they couldn't not be on the job.
Suggestion: At least one person at the counter at all times to serve customers 👥

I ordered the Chilli Scrambled Eggs ($26.00) and Large Dirty Chai Latte ($8.00).
There is a 1.6% card surcharge on card payments 💳
Total Paid: $32.51, due to some "Discount: free coffee" lines on my Tax Invoice.
My Large Dirty Chai Latte and my friend's Flat White and Creamy Garlic Mushrooms was served in 10 minutes, however my Chilli Scrambled Eggs was served in 20 minutes, despite Nehal reassuring that it would be served in a minute.

The Dirty Chai Latte was nice; it had a flavoursome syrup at the bottom of the mug ☕️
The Chilli Scrambled Eggs was also nice, but tasted a bit plain; it could have been complemented by more flavour. (There were tomato & BBQ sauces provided at the cafe, which I didn't use.)
The amount of rice noodles felt excessive 🍜 The cut chillies gave a great spice kick that my tongue was burning 🌶

I had a bite of my friend's Creamy Garlic Mushrooms, and that was delicious 🍄

Thank you Nehal and staff for the nice dining experience.
Next time, I would like to try a different breakfast dish from Farboy Cafe's menu 🥣

Food here is outstanding, fresh, hot and rich. Their special preparation Dal Makhani is must try along with other dishes even Chawal fry tastes great

Delicious! Specifically came for the secret Indian food menu and it was something different, totally yum! This is coming from my extremely Melbournian foodie sister. We ordered the Samosa chat, and other mixture of stuff to share. It would be nice to have photos of the food and description, because we had no idea what we were going to get, but we were not disappointed! they do take really long to make the food and need to work on bringing out entrees and drinks out first, but extremely lovely people. Good to support locals and YUM YUM. Satisfied completely.

Absolutely love this little gem in Mandurah! The owner is incredibly friendly and truly prioritises customer service. You feel welcomed from the moment you step in. The food is fresh, full of love and warmth, and every bite feels like a homemade hug. Such a beautiful atmosphere and an even more beautiful experience. Highly recommend!

Very enjoyable. Our second time here. Lots of parking, fresh interior with spacious & comfortable seating.(and toilets!!) Coffee has been spot on.and food has been delicious. Tried the Garlic Mushroom Mix first time and second time some dishes from their Indian menu (Tikka Paneer Sandwich,.Samosas and Vegetable Biryani each with its own condiment). Menus may need to be integrated and perhaps a little description for those not familiar with the fare. Wishing your new business well!

I wasn't sure if it was a new cafe ownership or not. But the trestle tables gave it away. Inside very clean and clinical. Menu is limited but very tasty. Staff very obliging and pleasant.

Beautiful cafe but the food and coffee is mid. Hidden spot, barely any customers, the food needs to be good as this is how u will attract more people. Good luck
