About daydreamers Cafe

This converted milk bar serves up inventive daytime plates with kitchen speed that defies the weekend rush. Expect folded chilli scramble with pork kassler and pistachio pesto, or dessert-leaning breakfast pavlova topped with granola alongside a citrus-spiked Mont Blanc. Coffee nerds order a magic pulled by Jasmin, while the alfresco space handles casual cocktail gatherings and private evening celebrations. Plates land at your table within ten to fifteen minutes, loaded with half an avocado or towering fried chicken bao.

  • Rapid Turnaround: Kitchen crews consistently deliver intricate plates within 10 to 15 minutes, even during packed weekend morning services.

Signature dishes that define the creative Daydreamers brunch experience

  • Chilli Scramble

    more folded eggs than a traditional scramble which I really liked. Packed with lots of additions so every bite had different texture and flavour.

    Stephanie Rose

  • Chicken Bao

    really nice flavours and a huge portion.

    Stephanie Rose

  • Breakfast Pavlova

    probably the best breakfast pavlova we’ve ever had. The only thing separating it from being a straight dessert was the granola, which actually worked perfectly.

    Stephanie Rose

  • Mango Cheesecake Hotcakes

    The mango cheesecake hotcakes are some of the best in Melbourne!

  • Mango Matcha

    delicious. A proper matcha flavour that’s strong but still really balanced with the mango.

    Stephanie Rose

  • Mango Tango

    I had a Mango Tango (mango & passionfruit frappe style drink) which was delicious.

    Trevor Macleod

  • Mont Blanc

    more cream than usual (which I loved), with a really strong citrus flavour. One of the better versions we’ve had.

    Stephanie Rose

  • Magic

    Jasmin makes one of the best Magics around. The quality is incredibly consistent every single time.
