Cafe Lafayette

  • Cafe
  • Takeaway

Hiding in the labyrinth of Melbourne’s inner laneways, Cafe Lafayette specialises in Japanese-inspired brunch dishes that will entertain your senses and tickle your fancy.

Start with small bites like baked scallops and loaded chips. Move onto panko-crumbed eggplant, house-made okonomiyaki or matcha French toast. Don't miss the must try unagi hotdog and crispy beef pie. To finish, try pancakes with lemon curd and seasonal fruit, and a rainbow latte featuring technicolour art.

The City of Melbourne respectfully acknowledges the Traditional Owners of the land we govern, the Wurundjeri Woi-wurrung and Bunurong Boon Wurrung peoples of the Eastern Kulin and pays respect to their Elders past, present and emerging.

We acknowledge and honour the unbroken spiritual, cultural and political connection the Wurundjeri, Bunurong, Dja Dja Wurrung, Taungurung and Wadawurrung peoples of the Eastern Kulin have to this unique place for more than 2000 generations.

We are committed to our reconciliation journey, because at its heart, reconciliation is about strengthening relationships between Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal peoples, for the benefit of all Victorians.
