About Dolci Cafe

Tucked beneath the cinema escalators in Mitcham Square, Dolci Cafe runs an all-day Italian hot kitchen alongside relaxed counter espresso and gelato. Regulars bypass standard cafe toasties for hearty bowls of penne carbonara, seafood marinara, and plates of saltimbocca. The floor crew keeps tables moving efficiently even when the dining room fills up before showtime. Pick up discounted cinema tickets with your meal, or linger over espresso and apricot japonaise cake.

  • All-day Italian kitchen: Full kitchen service runs throughout the day, dishing out pastas, pizzas, schnitzels, and seafood alongside counter sweets.
  • Pre-movie dining perks: Located directly below the Mitcham Square cinema escalators, with discounted tickets available when ordering a meal.
  • Group-friendly comfort: Spacious seating and a wide-ranging menu reliably cater to multi-generational family crowds and large groups.

The Dolci Cafe Advantage

Why Mitcham Square diners choose Dolci Cafe for family meals, pre-movie dinners, and all-day dining

  • Generous Italian Comfort Food for Groups

    From pasta and pizza to chicken schnitzels and seafood marinara, the kitchen prepares generous, reliable dishes across an extensive menu that satisfies diverse group tastes.

    7 of us all had different meals but every single one of them was outstanding! The meals here are obviously prepared with love and care. The meals were a generous size and they all had superb flavour.

    Unlike traditional daytime cafes with limited counter food, Dolci serves a full hot-kitchen Italian menu alongside cafe items throughout the day.

    Being able to get a restaurant quality meal at any time during the day, partner can get a sandwich at the same time.
