Seven Seeds Coffee Roasters

Seven Seeds sits on Berkeley Street in Carlton, just north of Melbourne's CBD near the university precinct. A celebrated specialty coffee roaster and cafe, it's long been regarded as one of the city's great coffee destinations — combining expertly roasted, quality coffee with accomplished cafe fare in a large, characterful warehouse setting, the kind of beloved spot at the heart of Melbourne's renowned coffee culture.

The appeal is that combination of genuinely excellent, expertly roasted coffee, quality food and a spacious, characterful setting in a convenient Carlton location, ideal for a serious cup, a leisurely brunch or a casual catch-up. Seven Seeds' stellar reputation in the coffee world makes it a real destination, and it's clearly kept its big, loyal following happy over the years.

With a 4.4 rating from more than 3,700 reviews, it's clearly a firm favourite. Menus, opening hours and offerings change with the seasons, and a popular cafe gets busy on weekend mornings, so it's worth checking current details before a special trip — though for an excellent coffee and a quality bite, it's often just a matter of dropping in and seeing why it's so well loved in Carlton.
