Reviews Market Lane Coffee

It took me a while to get to Market Lane, but finally Mirko took me to their café at Victoria Market in Melbourne. We had a clear goal in mind: filter coffee from Kenya – of course. But we went for the Full Monty instead: While the super friendly and smiling barista brewed our Kenyan filter coffee, she served us a little teaser filter brew from Guatemala to get us ready for the big brew: Santa Isabel, washed Caturra from Luis Valdés – TASTY. The Kenyan coffee came from Embu, SL28, SL34, Ruiru 11 & Batian varieties, and of course fully washed. The cup was sweet and clean, juicy with a bright citric acidity and delicious berry, citrus and yellow stone fruit notes - LINGERING. While enjoying my French croissant, we got served our espresso shot from Colombia. La Esperanza: washed Caturra and Variedad de Colombia with notes of melon and black tea and a sweet honey finish. I remember this coffee very well from Boston – MOUTHWATERING. And then… we also tasty some sweet cascara, freshly brewed for us! What else can you ask for? Specialty coffee at its BEST! Thank you – especially for the amazing hospitality.

Ordered a cappuccino and noted they don’t offer soy option in case you wonder. they seemed to use medium roasted beans and a bit of sour aftertaste, on par with other great coffee shop

Good coffee place - nice taste and friendly service

One of the best café I’ve tried in Melb!! Must try cappuccino! One downside is they don’t do with soy milk, only dairy and oat
