About Cocobei Cafe Docklands

Cocobei reimagines Docklands brunch through sharp Asian-fusion flavours in a sunlit corner space. Regulars drop in for plates that stray far from standard breakfast fare—think crispy soft-shell crab tangled in creamy tom yum pasta, fork-tender braised beef ribs over mash, and Japanese miso salmon sets complete with an onsen egg. Four-legged companions are welcomed straight inside with treats from the crew, making it an easy post-walk harbor stop. Drinks skip the ordinary too, rounding out tables with tiramisu lattes made for biscuit-dipping and matcha poured over ice cream.

  • Asian-fusion brunch fare: Plates like crispy soft-shell crab tom yum pasta, braised beef ribs, and Japanese miso salmon sets anchor the daytime menu.
  • Indoor pet friendly: Dogs are welcomed inside the dining area, with the floor team keeping snacks on hand.
  • Specialty coffee and drinks: Baristas pull Market Lane espresso alongside dessert-style pours like tiramisu lattes and matcha affogatos.

  • Signature Asian-Fusion Brunch Plates

    Cocobei delivers creative fusion plates led by crispy soft-shell crab tom yum pasta, combining spicy, creamy, and tangy broth profiles.

    We also tried the Crispy Crab Tom Yum Pasta, which had a nice balance of creamy, tangy and spicy flavours. The soft-shell crab was crispy and added great texture to the dish.

    We also loved the Tiramisu Latte with the biscuit for dipping, such a thoughtful touch.

  • Indoor Dining Welcoming Companion Dogs

    Unlike places restricted to outdoor paths, guests can bring their dogs directly inside the cafe and receive dog treats from the team.

    It was a cold day in Melbourne as any, and we were pleasantly surprised to learn that Rosie was allowed inside this dog-friendly cafe!

  • Signature Braised Beef Ribs

    The highlight of our visit was definitely the Signature Braised Beef Ribs from the seasonal menu. The beef was incredibly tender and fell off the bone effortlessly.

  • Braised beef benedict

    The 48hrs spud vide beef brisket was tender and pulled apart so easily and paired well with the potato pave that had the most crisp shell and soft layers.
