Degraves Espresso Melbourne

I personally loved the vibe, it is in a small alleyway with so many cafes around. They offer seating inside and outside. We chose to sit outside under the heaters. It coffee and food were amazing. The croissant was delicious, it was perfectly soft and flaky 👌🏼 The staff are lovely and the service was excellent. Definitely recommend!

We stumbled upon this charming espresso spot by accident on our anniversary a couple of years ago, and it instantly became a favourite. From the outside it looks simple, but inside it has a story and an atmosphere that makes it special. The coffee is absolutely delicious. Truly like a real Italian espresso and the food is consistently lovely. Even though we live far away, we always make a point to visit whenever we can. Highly recommend!

I have been coming here for near on 30 years! Introduced by a dear friend all that time ago. I began to cherish that Degraves always knew how to serve their food, tasty and piping hot, and their coffee always on point no matter how you ordered it. Today I ordered two poached eggs, with a side of bacon, chorizo, smoked salmon and hollandaise. Strong warm latte x 2 and I am in heaven. I always bring family here for the overall experience, and I am pleasantly impressed every time with their service, work ethic and willingness to serve their customers the old fashioned way. Thank you Degraves Espresso for that stable happy experience 30 years in the making, and IFYKYK, Cheers

Well I found my new favourite place in Melbourne for a cup of tea and cake! Brought my Japanese friend here for a coffee for him (which he said was excellent), I drink tea so I'm used to getting pretty average tea but the tea here did not disappoint in any way, it was a fantastic Earl Grey, thank you! And I asked our server for her recommendation for a cake, she suggested the Basque cheesecake, and I am so glad she did! It was amazing!!!! Soft and gooey on the inside, smokey and caramelised on the outside, it was everything I could have wished for. I'd travel back to Melbourne just for this cheesecake!

I had the Pulled Pork Benedict with those crispy potato croquettes and a flat white – absolutely delicious! The flavors were perfectly balanced, and everything was beautifully presented. Cozy atmosphere, friendly service, and great coffee – this place is a gem. I’ll definitely come back next time I’m in Melbourne. Highly recommended!

This place is a gem. Inside the pockets of Flinders Lane. I had the loveliest dessert French Toast “Torrijas” & paired it with red wine. It was the best $15 I have spent. I. LOVE. IT. Tony was absolutely lovely, he was helpful and genuinely has passion at what he does. He was able to sit me on a busy Saturday night after a Geelong Cats vs. Brisbane Lions game in front of a window. Gave me ample time to decide, checks in & recommends without being pushy. It was perfect. I had coffee here before but their food is equally amazing. I will definitely come back & try their basque cheesecake. I’m already dreaming about it.

Quintessentially Melbourne laneway coffee experience. Stopped for an afternoon caffeine hit, got a perfect coffee and eloquent and friendly chat with Tony. Spot on service. Ice cream spot opposite added chill background beats Recommend.

We had an absolutely wonderful experience at this restaurant! The food was delicious — every dish was fresh, full of flavour, and beautifully presented. The service was outstanding — the staff were warm, attentive, and made us feel so welcome throughout the evening. It was my birthday celebration, and to our delight, they surprised us with some extra bubbles to make the night even more special! 🎉🥂 Such a thoughtful touch that truly made the experience memorable. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for great food, excellent service, and a lovely atmosphere. We’ll definitely be coming back! 💕
