Looks like Melbourne's oldest espresso bar. Feels like Melbourne's oldest espresso bar. Is - like - Melbourne's oldest espresso bar.
A great place to eat and drink, not just for dinner either. One of Melbourne's better fusion restaurants. It has a frustrating 'no bookings' door policy; Gogo Bar downstairs is a great place to wait.
Be sure to pay the paltry cover charge and check out some live jazz -- it’s the way cocktails ought to be consumed. อ่านเพิ่มเติม
Only place in Melbourne with liquid nitrogen on tap ensuring an ice cold. Ginger beer is another feature. My pick for best bar in Melbourne. No sign so look for a timber door with a brass handle.
Seamstress claim to make Melbourne's greatest Martini. Go for olives over a twist and they'll come sitting on a little bed of ice in a beautiful Chinese teacup. อ่านเพิ่มเติม
Jugs of Pimms are mandatory here. A meal in themselves, they’re bursting with strawberries, oranges and cucumber and very, very drinkable. อ่านเพิ่มเติม
The Australian version of the NYC classic. Actually just a pub. But a great pub. And my old local. Come for a beer.
This place is great. Feels like being in Mexico City (particularly while walking upstairs, lovely food scent). Food is well priced for Melbourne. Everything was tasty and authentic. BTW, I'm Mexican.
In typical fashion, the luminaries behind haunts like Lucky Coq and Bimbo Deluxe put the social experience front and centre.
Some people claim it to be the best pizza in Carlton. A claim worth testing. With your mouth.
Great for Sunday brunch. Nice vibe, great breakfast. The coffee is a bit of a letdown though
The most opulent of Melbourne’s rooftop offerings, it’s not hard to be seduced by Siglo’s post-theatre crowd. อ่านเพิ่มเติม
Coffees are piping hot (always a good sign) and a dedicated take-out area means you can take the mood around the corner to the State Library lawn.
There’s no better way to take in the splendour of the CBD on a long summer's day than the roof of Curtain House. Transition a late night down to a booth at the Toff in Town, and you’re golden.
This is an excellent place to get married. If you're into that sort of thing.
Make sure you check out the richly decorated 19th century glass canopy, wrought iron and carved stone, and the mosaic tiled flooring. Pretty stunning! อ่านเพิ่มเติม
Kind of like Diagon Alley from the Harry Potter movies. Wear your best wizard robes and order a magical brew from the coffee geeks at Degraves Espresso Bar.
The oldest public art museum in Australia. Striking understated architecture and a substantial collection of Australian and international art. People have stolen Picassos here.
The home of the NGV's Australian art collection. Enjoy yourself a Boyd, Drysdale, Russell and perhaps some Shearing of the Rams
The beating heart of Melbourne. Football in the Winter. Cricket in the Summer
Great collection of quirky Australian and international fashion. Outfit yourself you dirty hipster
Robert insists this is amongst the funnest thing tourist can do in Melbourne
Gentrified hipsters. If Smith St is Williamsburg...this is the Lower East Side/Nolita. Explore. Go to the bookshop. Have a coffee. Plot the overthrow of the capitalist plutocracy.
Spanish tapas down a classic Melbourne laneway. Come early and get a seat without a reservation.
Tuesday night = vegetarian degustation. You'll need to book, 2 sittings at 6:30 & 8:30. 3/4/5 course meals @ $35/$42/$50.
Acclaimed by many as Australia's best artisanal pizza, there's much more to Ladro - open for lunch later in the week - its always pumping Sunday evening when the local chefs get their takeaway pizza
A local label tipped to be the next big thing in Australia. Contemporary clothing made for men and women in many shades of grey.
One of Australia's most well know fashion brands. Ksubi's style is casual, youthful and fashion forward.
A Melbourne institution. Book online then watch a movie in the Royal Botanic Gardens. Bring your own rug, cushions, picnic and wine.
When it's late. Real late. And you want to eat. And maybe have a small duck head fight. Come up these back stairs.
Shebeen is an amazing spot started by a good friend. Great atmosphere...the beers are imported from developing countries and all the profits go to charity
Tucked down a back alley behind a dumpster and guarded by a homeless man. This is one of the original laneway bars. All three floors are different. All three floors are good. Make this a priority.
Melbourne is in safe hands with Takashi-san front of house. This place isn't some oldskool Tokyo transplant, but a brave local concept done with style and is poised to become a regular haunt for many.
Manchester Press is a viable CBD option: opt for the chorizo bagel. (And another with just a schmear, if you must.) อ่านเพิ่มเติม
The original Fonda. Started by a good friend of ours. A mexican pioneer in Melbourne.
A cheeky cider or relaxing coffee only adds to the ambiance of this historic park's cafe.
