Want to know the cutest cafe in Melbourne? It’s gotta be the NEW Hello Kitty and Friends Cafe at Melbourne Central!

Situated on level 1 at the La Trobe St side of Melbourne Central, the cafe features an ‘outdoor’ area with tables and stools carefully watched over by a giant inflatable Hello Kitty. Inside, you dine in Cinnamoroll World - a dreamy blue space featuring Cinnamoroll jumping on clouds and flying over Melbourne.

What can you expect to eat? Well, there are a lot of savouries - bento plates, soba salads, sandos and foccacias, as well as sweets like the Hello Kitty cake, burnt pumkin cheesecake, and croffle and ice cream.

For Mamma and kids, the highlight was the drinks. Sweet iced teas in a variety of favours (Mamma loved the lycee and guava), as well as shakes like cookies and cream, and grape cream.

It’s popular, so you will have to line up for a little bit to get a table. If you don’t have time, pick something up from the grab & go window, as well as browse the gift shop selling toys, prints and shirts. Magical!
