The Hardware Société

The Hardware Société is a cafe born in the laneways of Melbourne, with a mission to redefine what breakfast and brunch can be.

With outposts in Melbourne, Paris and opening soon in Barcelona, The Hardware Société's French/Spanish-inspired cuisine is the perfect way to start your day.

Signature dishes such as lobster Benedict, chorizo baked eggs and tuna millefuille have people travelling the world to try, and are sure to make your Instagram friends hungry with envy.

Wash your breakfast down with coffee by Padre or a brunch cocktail.
