Why it's worth checking out

Brunetti Classico sits on Lygon Street in Carlton, the heart of Melbourne's beloved Italian precinct. A famous, much-loved Italian cafe and pasticceria, it's a genuine Melbourne institution — renowned for its beautiful Italian pastries, cakes, gelato and coffee, all in a bustling, characterful setting on the iconic Lygon Street strip.

The appeal is that combination of exquisite Italian pastries and cakes, quality coffee and gelato and a lively, authentic Italian atmosphere on Lygon Street, perfect for a coffee and a pastry, a sweet treat, a gelato or soaking up the Carlton Italian buzz. Its long-standing reputation for genuine Italian sweets and coffee makes it a real drawcard, and Brunetti has clearly delighted an enormous, loyal following over the years.

With a 4.3 rating from more than 4,600 reviews, it's clearly a hugely popular, well-loved institution. The pastries, cakes, gelato, menus, opening hours and pricing vary, and a famous, busy spot gets busy on weekends, so it's worth checking current details before a special trip — though for beautiful Italian pastries, a coffee or a gelato, it's often just a matter of dropping in at Brunetti on Lygon Street in Carlton.
