saint ali — a coffee roaster, cafeteria, and general store — is one of [Melbourne’s] original specialist roasters, and has championed smallholders globally with single-origin blends. The cafe is in a warehouse down an alleyway in South Melbourne and has great coffee and a great all day menu. He is also one of the reputed creators of “magical” coffee: a double ristretto and steamed milk (like a flat white). They have great branding and work with artists in numerous creative ventures, as well as promote and sell local vendors of unique food items. They capture and reflect the Melbourne vibe, which comes from someone who moved here eight years ago after living and working all over the world. While you’re there, take a look at South Melbourne Market for food and crafts, a smaller scale than Queen Victoria Marketbut it has a bit more genuine feel and great specialty sellers. Addresses
