CERES Café
Brunswick East	Cycle to the environmental park for a breakfast of eggs, relishes and greenery all collected on site, and tune up your bike at the free work shed while you’re at it.
Kanteen
South Yarra	Right on the edge of a meandering bend of the Yarra river you feel a bit like you’re camping – next to a café. This is as al fresco as it gets.
Hobba Coffee
Prahran	This huge, airy converted garage where 63° poached eggs rule has a tree smack in the middle, which means you can go al fresco even when it’s wet out.
Grub Food Van
Fitzroy	Sip your fresh blood orange juice (with 666 vodka) beneath a stripy umbrella outside the Grub’s vintage Airstream caravan. It’s like breakfasting in the US in the 1950s.
Pope Joan
Brunswick East	Sit in the garden and watch kitchen hands popping out to pick the herbs that will go on your eggs. Provenance incarnate.
