Where are the best brunch places in Melbourne?

I'm a total brunch addict. Some of my favourite spots in the brunch/ cafe capital of Melbourne (Fitzroy!) for smashed avo and poached eggs include-

Industry Beans- https://industrybeans.com/
Lune Crossanterie- Mouth-watering pan au chocolat https://www.lunecroissanterie.com/
Rustica- For the best bread! http://rusticasourdough.com.au/

Grace cafe- http://gracefitzroy.com/
Breakfast Thieves- http://www.breakfastthieves.com/about-breakfast-thieves-au
Sir Charles- https://www.sircharlesfitzroy.com.au/
Pavlov's Duck- Try the hoppers (a traditional Sri Lanken pancake) https://www.zomato.com/melbourne/pavlovs-duck-fitzroy

So many options!

Caffé Uffizi is a personal favourite located in Caulfield North on the corner of Hawthorn and Balaclava Road.

Nicely located with Caulfield Park directly across the road (perfect for any takeaway options), they use fresh, local ingredients and breakfast/brunch is a specialty of the head chef.

Would 100% recommend if ever in the area.

I'm renting out in Glen Iris and the best places I've discovered locally for brunch are The Baker's Wife (huge warehouse-style space try the crumpets!), Mr Foxx, Where is Henry, Platform Espresso, Baba Sus (there can be lines on the weekend but their incredible egg waffles are well worth the wait), My Other Brother and Juno & May. Enjoy!

I've never had a bad meal at Top Paddock in Richmond. The vibe and food at Babble cafe in Prahran is good too, have the 'Chapel street hangover' after a big night out.
The ocean views from The Baths in Middle Brighton cafe is a nice start to the day, they make a mean scrambled eggs & tasty corn fritters.

Mitcham in the Eastern suburbs has a hot little strip of cafes in Britannia Mall - Dark Horse on the Brit is my top pick.

The Boatbuilders Yard in Docklands may be most peoples pick for a pint in the sun.... but they do a killer brunch too!
My favourite was their pumpkin baked egg with goat's curd.... droooool

Also tucked away in South Melbourne is St Ali - great coffee

If you're feeling a day trip to Phillip Island head to Waterboy Cafe for their ricotta pancake mmmmm

Both Gattica in Balaclava and Servery & Spoon in Malvern East have my votes. Awesome coffee, atmosphere and a wide selection choices.

I've also discovered some new ones, I really like Serotonin cafe in Burnley, lots of great vegan options as well as your standard bacon and eggs options. Also The Kettle Black in South Melbourne is a fantastic option, although sometimes very busy.

Brunswick foodstore has mad smashed avocado

Big fan of Pg 2 in Richmond (Amazing Campos coffee made by talented barista's) and Neon Tiger in Malvern is great food/coffee.

i love Dawson Cafe/Restaurant in Kew. It has awesome vibes inside cos the staff are so friendly, and i LOVE the food, also not too exy (expensive) :)

Hi, You can try Medicci at the Docklands, Waterfront City. Delicious and very affordable.
