Best Coffee in Melbourne?

[wombles]

A mate of mine started a blog about coffee in melbourne recently and asked me where my favourite coffee in Melbourne is. Good question I thought.

There are probably too many to name but I find it hard to go past Brother Baba Budan in the city.

Most Melburnians seem to have take away lattes perma-fixed to their hands...where do you get you favourite coffee?

Theres about 5 excellent places the rest are pretty ordinary.

Usuually well kept secrets you discover yourself and dont want to become too popular,and over run with bogans.

Never drink coffee out of paper

There's a certain one in an alley next to the Vic markets that makes quite a nice brew. Can't think of the name of the place though. Never thought to look.

The deli at Monash Uni makes a great coffee. Think it was rated best coffee in Melbourne by the age.

Being living in inner city for 25 years

Cant go past

1.Marios in Fitzroy
2. Newtown in Brunswick st Fitzroy
3 Flinders lane


and dont go to Vic market shocking coffee

Agree there Fred. The Vic Market coffee is invariably awful.

I've always liked Pelligrini's in the City. Maybe the vibe even more than the actual coffee.

FootyJunkie if I could thumbs-down you, I would!
Chief, my favourite places are the ones hidden down alley ways. There's a heap I've been to who've served up coffee anywhere from consumable to fantastic, and plenty others who've served up rubbish.

Treasury cafe does some pretty decent coffee. There's a few places around Carsales that do good coffee as well. There's a place on Union Rd in Ascot Vale that does good coffee and seddon deadly sins in Seddon.

MacArthur st?

MacArthur st?

Yep, on the corner of MacArthur & Spring Sts. Food & coffees are good, if you go in, tell the guy making the coffees that Justin from Parliament of Vic says hi. He's the jovial bald Lebanese guy, top bloke.

The last coffee I had in the Melbourne CBD was down the Block Arcade and was barely warm.

I actually haven't been but have heard great things about Assembly in Carlton, they used to run El Joyero in Thornbury. They take coffee and also tea very seriously.

I've been smashing the $1 coffee's at 7/11. It may not be the best ever, but for $1 I'm not complaining.

$1 banana bread as well

 

[Mofra]

Brunswick Food Store is one of my favourites
Don't mind Krimper either
