Under fifteen dollars needs to mean under fifteen, not a A$15 plate rounded down in the headline. These three Yarraville venues publish qualifying base items. Drinks, additions, delivery and any applicable surcharge are outside the figures below. The distinction matters: a small change to an egg order can put it over the cap before the coffee arrives.
Checked 4 November 2026. Research-based guide using the official listings linked below. Prices, dates and availability can change; confirm your chosen visit directly.
The short version: Chi Bao lists spring-onion noodles at A$14.50, Cornershop lists poached or fried eggs on sourdough at A$14.50, and Wembley lists eggs on sourdough at A$14. Check the actual order total before paying; scrambled eggs and other extras can change the result.
Correction: Rebuilt from current primary menus on 4 November 2026. This is a menu-based guide, not a claim that we visited or taste-tested these venues.
Compare the options
| Venue | Qualifying listed item | Catch |
|---|---|---|
| Chi Bao, 46 Anderson Street | Spring-onion noodles A$14.50 | Published online menu; ordering may be closed |
| Cornershop, 11 Ballarat Street | Poached or fried eggs on sourdough A$14.50 | Scrambled A$15 is not under A$15 |
| Wembley, 10 Wembley Avenue | Eggs on sourdough A$14; spanakopita A$9 | Scrambled adds A$2; drinks extra |
1. Chi Bao: check a noodle dish rather than adding starters into a meal
Chi Bao’s own online menu lists spring-onion noodles at A$14.50. Other qualifying items include wonton soup at A$10.50 and pork-and-cabbage dumplings at A$11. These are different dishes and formats; the menu does not establish that every one is the same size or equally filling.
Use the spring-onion noodles as a starting point if your budget is for one dish. Adding a drink, a second plate or delivery can exceed the cap. The ordering page can show that it is not accepting orders, so a published menu is not proof that pickup is available at the moment you read this.

2. Cornershop: the exact egg preparation changes the claim
At 11 Ballarat Street, Cornershop lists poached or fried eggs on sourdough at A$14.50, while scrambled eggs are A$15. The latter meets a ‘fifteen or less’ description but not a strict ‘under fifteen’ one. That is why this guide names the preparation.
Keep the basic order basic if the cap matters. Sides, gluten-free substitutions and coffee are additional purchases. This is a straightforward daytime option to price-check, not evidence that the venue’s whole brunch menu sits below A$15. Confirm any surcharge and the final total for your visit.

3. Wembley: choose between a sit-down base and a takeaway pastry
Wembley’s menu lists eggs on sourdough at A$14 and an A$2 addition for scrambled preparation. Its takeaway spanakopita choices are listed at A$9. Those are separate ways to spend the budget: a basic egg plate or a pastry, rather than an imagined full brunch combination.
At the listed base amounts, scrambled eggs would total A$16 and miss this guide’s cap. A coffee also changes the bill. Check the current menu and counter conditions before ordering, and ask the venue directly about ingredients or dietary requirements. We have not independently measured portions or assessed taste.
