Brother Baba Budan

359 Little Bourke St, Melbourne. (03) 3960 6044
This tiny little place in the CBD is one of the key locations on any serious coffee drinker’s map of Melbourne.

These guys are serious coffee drinkers and while they will make you that weak, soy, latte if you ask for it, they won’t like it. There are a few different blends on offer and all of them are fairtrade and cruelty free.

The cafe itself is small and can be a squeeze at rush hour, but for some reason I find it comforting and don’t mind braving the crush to sip my espresso in the corner.

Once you start you can’t stop – this place will have the serious coffee drinker coming back again and again. Check out the website for ‘cupping’ opportunities, which is what they call tasting sessions.
