Insider: Melbourne Guide to Brunch



Melbourne Guide to Brunch

Melbourne is hands down the best city in the world for Brunch food. I haven't experienced such a diverse range of menus than what's on offer in Melbourne. Nor have I seen so many cafes in one city that just GET IT.

I lived in Melbourne, Australia for 9 years before moving to Los Angeles. I recently visited Melbs for my birthday so thought I'd take the opportunity to revisit some of my old fav cafes and any new ones that have popped up in and present to you my top picks for a stellar brunch in good old Melbourne.

I've written it up by area so if you're traveling and sticking to a certain part of town, you can easily maneuver the list.
