We visited a café known for its exceptional coffee and high-quality coffee beans. Upon arrival, we found that all the seating, both indoors and outdoors, was occupied, so we opted for takeout. While we were there, the café became quite busy and crowded, especially for takeout orders. We tried their iced latte, and the flavor of the coffee was impressive, which prompted us to purchase their house-roasted beans as well. I highly recommend this café to anyone seeking quality, tasty coffee.

It’s a unique cafe along little Bourke street (near hardware lane area). Glad to make it here in the morning on a weekend and the cafe was extremely crowded. We queued about 15min to order two latte and their ham & cheese croissant. We love their flaky croissant. It’s very well baked and on a second thought, I should have bought two croissants instead of one for sharing. Coffee is okay and not bad (not the best I had in Melbourne). One thing great and interesting is the cafe vibe and environment. It’s a very nice ambience to be sitting here, take your morning breakfast and read a book or chill out. Recommend you all to visit :)

In the heart of Melbourne’s ultra-competitive café scene, this spot stands out for its solid reputation and loyal following. The space inside is compact, but what it lacks in size it makes up for in charm – there’s a cosy, almost intimate feel that draws you in and invites you to slow down and savour the moment. It’s very much a coffee-first kind of place, and that focus shows. The brew here is well-executed – smooth, balanced, and satisfying, exactly what you’d hope for in a city known for setting high standards in every cup. It’s not trying to reinvent the wheel, but it doesn’t need to – the consistency and quality speak for themselves. There weren’t any real downsides to mention. While nothing stood out as particularly exceptional beyond the coffee, everything was reliably good – service, ambiance, and overall experience. It’s the kind of café you can count on for a dependable pick-me-up, whether you’re a local or just passing through. In a city filled with standout cafés, this one earns its place with quiet confidence.

A good cafe spot near my home! My bf and I ordered ice coffee and flat white few weeks ago, and both of us enjoyed our coffee😗 the taste of flat white is goood! I can taste the strong body from beans and the smooth balance w milk from my 1st sip!

My favourite for the atmosphere and vibe in Melbourne...and I think my favourite coffee also..well definitely in the top 3! Tasty Tasty medium roasted coffee. Im giving this one an 8.25/10. Arrived at 7am when they opened. It does get quite busy here and it is a small shop.
