Why it's worth checking out
Amiri Cafe sits in the QV precinct on the corner of Lonsdale Street in the heart of the Melbourne CBD. A popular cafe, it's built a big following for its quality coffee and casual fare — the kind of busy, reliable spot that draws a steady stream of workers, shoppers and visitors in the centre of the city.
The appeal is that combination of good coffee, quality cafe food and a convenient central location right in the QV precinct, ideal for a morning coffee, a casual lunch or a catch-up while exploring the city. In a busy part of the CBD, the big, loyal following speaks to a cafe getting the fundamentals right.
With a 4.5 rating from more than 1,900 reviews, it's clearly keeping its many customers happy. Menus, opening hours and offerings change, and a popular central cafe gets busy at peak times, so it's worth checking current details before a special trip — though for a coffee and a casual bite, it's often just a matter of dropping in and seeing why it's so well rated in the heart of Melbourne.
