Directions

A cafenista and foodie haven

Coffee connoisseurs frequent this venue in droves for a fix of the house blend espresso roasted by Seven Seeds or the weekly changing single origin blend. Owners Kylie Mackinlay and Luke Mutton spent time at St. Ali, often voted Melbourne's best coffee haunt, before branching out on their own. Laurent Hoffarth (ex Donovan's) manages the kitchen and serves up plenty of crowd pleasers infused with a gourmet twist such as omelette of the day stuffed with preserved lemon, ricotta and thyme or smoked salmon on rye with avocado and a grapefruit salsa. A fabulous cafe and one that will have you coming back time and time again.

    Perfectly casual. this cafe is nestled down a side street but well worth the detour. it has a comfortable rustic interior, a nice relaxed vibe, great coffee and great food. They use some nice blends and singles (mostly from seven seeds) and they have some great, slightly unique, food options on the menu.
    A perfect cafe to chill in and drink/eat it up. The staff are friendly (and don't bother you unnecessarily). Strangely it doesn't seem overly busy - despite the hype. Check it out before it gets too popular.

  • Dead Man Espresso

    Ultimate Melbourne

    Thursday, August 19, 2010

    If you’re a coffee aficionado, Dead Man is gonna slay you. Since its opening late last year, this little caff has been tearing up Melbourne’s blue ribbon caffeine scene with its outstanding blends. Despite consistently rave reviews and a rabid fanbase, both staff and interior have remained charming and simple, with not an ounce of pretentiousness among them: when the coffee’s this good, it seems, there’s no need to skite.
