Poppi Farmer is an Australian-inspired café at St.-Bonifatius-Straße 1 in Obergiesing. Go for all-day breakfast or a coffee stop away from the city centre. In our original review, the grilled cheese with kimchi was the dish that caught our eye. The café changes the menu with the seasons and closes on Tuesdays. Poppi Farmer’s current menu and hours

What did we think of the food?
Walking into Poppi Farmer made me think of a café on a Melbourne side street or in one of Sydney’s beachside suburbs. It was the earth-toned walls and the big straw lamps as much as anything on the menu. If you have a bit of Fernweh, that feeling of missing travel, this was a good place to sit down for a coffee.
There was an Aussie avo toast and a breakfast croissant on the menu, but my eyes went straight to the grilled cheese toastie with kimchi on the side. I liked the toastie, and I would have doubled the kimchi. It was the part I kept going back for between bites. The food felt light but filled me up. I didn’t miss meat, and the buckwheat bowl with miso-roasted vegetables and hummus sounded good for another visit. The drinks list went beyond a flat white too: there were tonics and kombucha when we went.
If you’re after a greasy hangover brunch, this is probably not your place. I’d go back for a lighter breakfast and a proper coffee, with time to sit under those lamps. That was my visit. The toastie and bowl were on the menu then, so use the café’s current menu to see what is there now.
What’s on the menu now?
The café describes its food as Australian-inspired and says its ingredients are organically grown. It updates the menu several times a year. Check the café’s menu for the dishes and prices on your visit, especially if you have the old toastie in mind. The operator also lists speciality coffee, drinks and natural wines.

If you’ve got time after breakfast, I’d head for St.-Martins-Straße and a quiet walk past the cemetery. It’s a different pace from the main road, and it was the detour I recommended when I first wrote about the café.
