This venue is one of Good Food’s 100 Essential Melbourne Cafes and Bakeries of 2026.

Melbourne and Sri Lankan brunch traditions converge at this decade-old cafe, which recently relocated to Carlton. Egg-and-bacon wraps are made with house roti, and breakfast plates can be upgraded with spiced chicken sausage. Alongside Coffee Supreme, there’s Dilmah tea and faluda – a sweet, textural drink-meets-dessert layered with rose syrup, milk, basil seeds, jelly and vanilla ice cream.

Must order: The breakfast plate, filled with string and egg hoppers, sambal, chickpea curry and chicken sausage.
