Aweome little hide-away. The owners also have a chocolate lab called Violet (mine's called Charlie) so we've formed a special bond.
Great coffee, brunch and good takeaway meals. About a 450m walk.

Coffee but a bit fancy. This is where you'll see the Melbourne elite enjoying a coffee post walk/run around 'the tan', having an early morning business meeting or a late lunch. Run by a well credentialed star of the Melbourne cafe scene, the decor is absolutely on trend and it only opened this year. Posh but prices are good and service is friendly and unpretentious.

Terrific Japanese food for takeaway or eat in. Great quality, super healthy if you'd like it that way, with some indulgences. Can also be arranged for pick up or on uber eats. I'd eat here 3+ times/week.

Parks & Nature
Literally at your doorstep with less than a one minute walk. Walk around the edges at 'the tan' track where Melburnians come to run, walk, personal train and catch up. Or enter the main gate less than 100m from your front door and wander through splendid gardens that will make you feel at ease and very happy. I love to start my mornings with a stroll around the edges, then walk back through the gardens, coffee in hand.
