Higher Ground

Higher Ground sits somewhere between the worlds of cafe and restaurant, serving innovative meals for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

At dinner time the venue gets a little more serious, with delicious mains and a short but well-chosen wine list.

The venue extends over three levels, with seating at tables, bars, sofas and easy chairs, and plenty of nooks to hide away in.

These brand new hidden gems are the best way to rediscover Melbourne this summer.

Try Vietnamese iced coffee, yuzu spritzes and classic cold brew.

Head down these laneways to find leafy cafes, tiny hole-in-the-walls and hidden gem coffee roasters.
