There are two stores named Birdcage on the same street, so this store should not be confused with the women’s clothing store a bit further down. Birdcage is a cosy little dessert store on the eastern end of Rundle Street. The decor is stylish and elegant with nice earthy colour tones. The wrought iron clock…

House Of Donkey
The House of Donkey is located on the less popular western side of the city, in a double storey cream coloured townhouse. While everything looks normal from the outside, the inside is a hippy like time warp back to the 60’s. The decor is a mismatch of furniture, flowers, bookshelves, palettes, pot plants and knick…
By Blackbird
By Blackbird is a small little cafe and patisserie located in the popular King William Road cafe precinct. Coffee and pastries seem to be their specialty, but they also do all day breakfasts in the form of croissants with a variety of fillings. The place is warm and cosy with a dash of character about…
Colin & Co – Rundle Place
Colin & Co are located at the Grenfell Street entrance of Rundle Place. The place is primarily a coffee shop, however they do have breakfast and lunch options, as well as a selection of sweets. The decor has a funky warehouse feel about it. The floor to ceiling windows maximise the amount of natural light,…
Duthy Street Deli
Duthy Street Deli is your typical suburban corner store turned eatery. While it doesn’t look like much from the outside, the inside is slightly better. With chalk board wall menus, leather seating and a feature wall to one side, this place has a grungy feel about it. There’s a good amount of natural light only…

The venue is located in a prime corner position with plenty of natural light coming in from the floor to ceiling windows. The place is contemporary and stylish with good use of natural earth colour tones. The large square…
Dr Jekyll – St Kilda – Melbourne
I have to say it really sucks not having a car when you’re in Melbourne. While their public transport system is a lot better than what we have in Adelaide, the walking distance from the tram stop to Dr Jekyll seemed like a considerable distance away. As we walked, it started pouring, and not all…
Il Tempo – Melbourne
Prior to our group flying into Melbourne, we already had an itinerary of all the places we wanted to eat. Some of these places didn’t accept bookings and it was down to luck as to whether we’d get a seat. As we wandered out for breakfast, we discovered we had missed out on our preferred…
Cafe Insieme – Melbourne
One of the wonderful things about Melbourne are the small shops and eateries hidden in their laneways. While wandering through the small side streets to see what I could find, I was approached by a waitress trying to offer me breakfast. Sold on the reasonable pricing, I made my way into the cafe. For breakfast,…
Koko Black – Collins St. Melbourne
I must admit that I had never heard of Koko Black until I arrived in Melbourne. They’re a bit of an institution in the eastern states and it’s not surprising that they’re slowly opening stores across the country and in New Zealand. The Collins Street store in Melbourne simply exudes style and elegance with it’s…
