About Hanna's Cafe

Ditch generic terminal concourses for proper Melbourne coffee and generous fare at Hanna's Cafe, set just outside Terminal 4. Situated landside at the ground car park near rideshares, this airy spot provides a quiet pause from airport crowds. The kitchen turns out house-made options at prices well below departure lounge rates—from roast pork with potato and pumpkin to smashed avocado finished with feta, pomegranate seeds, and roasted cherry tomatoes.

  • Terminal 4 Landside Location: Positioned landside by the T4 car park and rideshare zone, offering an uncrowded respite from the terminal hustle.
  • Fair Concession Pricing: Serves well-portioned cafe breakfast and lunch at rates notably lower than airside concessions, with airport staff discounts.
  • Pre- and Post-Flight Refuel: Delivers high-grade espresso drinks, matcha, and quick savory plates before takeoff or right after a long flight.
