Housed in a heritage-listed powerhouse, Cafe Theobroma is an all-day dining destination located in the heart of Melbourne's CBD. Six connected levels wrap around the perimeter of the original brick building to create a suite of intimate tiered platforms. An evocative, inventive, and highly curated menu offers guests the very best that Melbourne has to offer.
Cafe Theobroma is an all-day dining destination welcoming guests from morning through to late afternoon and offers a unique and refined blend of a café and restaurant.
Start the day with their fiery Chilli Scrambled Eggs or Avocado Pretzel, an elevated rendition of the classic avocado toast. End your meal on a sweet note with the signature Blueberry and Ricotta Hotcakes — light, fluffy and adored for a reason.
The dining room ceilings are 15 metres high and the space floods with natural light during the day. The upstairs level – which comes with its own barista station – is an unhurried lounge to read, work or eat a meal in.
The long stainless-steel bar brews a range of coffee, speciality teas and curated cocktails.
Enjoy their custom blend of specialty espresso — the ethically sourced beans are grinded to perfection. Quality coffee is a main focal point of Cafe Theobroma experience, so much so that it necessitates a separate coffee menu — including a barista's breakfast tasting board of Five Senses coffee and several pour-over and batch brew options.
The wine list is short but sweet, featuring only the finest range of local and imported producers.
