There’s lots to love about living in the eastern suburbs of Melbourne, here’s just a few.
Growing café culture
Travel through any eastern suburb of Melbourne and you’ll be spoiled for choice when it comes to finding a place worthy of stopping to get your caffeine fix or tantalise your tastebuds. Within this growing medley of café’s there’s a sub-culture of kid-friendly ones sprouting so keep your eye out for those if you have little ones in tow.
Looking for something new or off the beaten path to try?
Frank’s Cakes, Ferntree Gully – get your Italian cake fix here
Little Hugh, Nunawading – another gem in an industrial area
The Bakers Wife Camberwell – warehouse meets culinary delights
The Public Brewery, Croydon – technically not a café but still worthy of this list
