Vacation Coffee

The interior of vacation is one of my favourite café, but not the coffee. I personally don't like pineapple or too much tropical fruits flavour in my coffee. The decor was vibrant and the location was great that you can sit down and enjoy the first sunshine in the morning. I will try some iced coffee drinks next time.

The coffee here is consistently fantastic. Great brews. Perfectly executed milk coffee every time. Batch brew always interesting with different beans rotating through. The toasties are my Melbourne favourite (I cannot figure out what makes the chicken toastie so incredible, but it is!) Lovely location, with a very Melbourne view to the MCG and tennis centre (watch for AO players/crew during summer) Great team who have consistently followed all public health directions through the pandemic and supported their community in a super tough time for themselves with a smile and warmth.

This place is amazing! We were visiting Melbourne for a trip where we ended up at Vacation twice. We normally eat at hotel buffets, but this time we didn't have the option. I have issues with lactose so I'm looking for a place with vegan options, but my parents would still like to have something with meat as an option. And Vacation provides exactly that, I really enjoyed the granola that I ate both times and the matcha latte (I think, it's pictured below) and banana peanut butter smoothie were really good as well. The seating arrangement for 3 or more people can get a little funky unless you get the only large table, but that was really the only downside for us. So if you're looking for a nice little cafe that has both vegan and non vegan options than this is the cafe for you!

Fantastic and super popular cafe, hidden on a corner right on the southern edge of the city cbd. The coffee is the best in the city! Super friendly service and tasty selection of food. And lovely retro pastel decor. Lots of table seating available. Definitely worthy of it's place on Broadsheet’s Best Coffee list 👍
