Best coffee north of the city! Quality food, excellent coffee and always lovely service. Can't wait for these guys to re-open
My favourite spot in Carlton. I cannot wait to get back there. Coffee is spot on, the staff really care and the food is A Grade quality!
The staff here are always awesome, and the owner is always very accommodating. Food is brilliant, a good place to do some work as they have power outlets for your laptop or phone and free wifi.

Stovetop really presented well with its modern interiors and giant west facing industrial windows that let in plenty of natural light. They have been in their new expended premises for nearly two years now and their menu read as well as the food coming out to other tables looked.
My brother and I enjoyed the coffee here and had a second round just to make sure. The smashed avo was far from your standard smash with the inclusion of dukkah eggs (a twist on the son in law eggs), and all sitting nicely on falafel fritters. My brother chicken out of chowing into the jalapeño chilies but I snuck them off his plate.
My miso and vodka cured salmon was almost like a salmon benedict. That salmon was delicious and such vivid colours on this dish. A favourite for me.
We finished of sharing a delightfully presented banana and nutella waffles which had other exciting elements such and banana and peanut mousse, salted caramel and fairy floss. Terrific dish.
All up a friendly pleasant dining experience with visually stunning tasty food.
Thanks to Paul and the team at Stovetop Cafe for their hospitality.
One of the best cappuccinos I've had in a long time. Really great quality coffee.
Food-wise, the menu has plenty of tasty options, I really enjoyed the Spanish Omelette with spicy chorizo.
Absolute great experience. Awesome dining area with incredible customer service. The food's representation was 5 star worthy it's self along with the taste. This cafe is now on my favourite list.
Wow! What a venue, everything about this place screams class! An amazing fit out matched by a quality feed. One of the best in Melbourne!
After visiting the Vic Market we were looking for a place to take the kids for a nice lunch. Stovetop popped up on the radar and it was a quick drive to one of the best Cafes we have been to in Melbourne. The space, the food and the staff made this an experience we will remember. Highly recommend visiting Stovetop, you will love every bit of it!

📝: Stovetop’s name comes from the stovetop burners used in a certain coffee maker. They serve up great coffees and delicious unique brunch to customers in the area. The place buzzes with life during brunch and lunctime as university students and professors head in.
❤️: With the revamped menu, the dishes tastes even better with such unique presentation. Loved the Okonomiyaki on the specials board—Japanese-styled savory pancake, topped with poached egg, dried bonito flakes, and smoked salmon.
Loved the unique presentation of the Smashed Avocado, which came on waffle-shaped falafel fritters. The flavors went so well with the charred corn, Persian feta, tzatziki, and pickled jalapeño.
New specials menu wow! I had the okonomiyaki pancake and it was delicious. Not the type of thing I’d normally go for but saw another customer order it and just had to try! Loved the house blend coffee too

@stovetopcafe is a cafe towards University Square/ Melb Uni📍 I love the natural light in this cafe 😍 we enjoyed the nasi Goreng and the baked eggs. Both dishes were so good!
All dishes including the cauliflower salad were so generous! We went on a day where they were understaffed and they were so busy with takeaway orders 🥲 the barista and floor staff were out due to covid. We still really enjoyed our meal and coffees- mum really enjoyed the NasiGoreng 😄.
Super wholesome. ♥️☀️ 🍳☕️

Located in Carlton right near Melbourne Uni is this gorgeous cafe! I have been here years ago and absolutely loved it and I can say that it has not changed one bit in terms of the quality of food and the incredible service 🤍
We had:
🥑 Avocado Bruschetta
🍳 Spanish Omelette
🥞 Blueberry and banana hotcakes
Our fave was defs the smashed avo- I have not had a smashed avo this good in such a long time! I loved all the elements of the dish, the avo was generous, the brocollini was perfectly charred and delicious, a good amount of feta and the acidity of the tomatoes helped to balance this all out- honestly YUM!
The Spanish omelette came out completely different to how I imagined. It was thick, fluffy and full of potato and chorizo, so delicious! A very filling dish. The only thing I would have loved to have seen is the chorizo to be on the spicier side to give the dish that extra elevation in flavour! I loved the addition of the sourdough!
The banana and blueberry hotcakes were the perfect finisher. Drowned in maple syrup, these were divine! I wasn’t expecting the hotcakes to have blueberries in them and they were jam packed and absolutely divine! The addition of granola clusters was perfect for texture and the mascarpone on top helped to balance out the sweetness of the dish. A definite reorder when I revisit 🥰
We felt so welcomed to this homey, cozy cafe! We could not praise the service more. Each staff member was so friendly and made us feel right at home 🏡
A gorgeous interior! A must visit!
4.8/5 🤌🏼
Enjoyed a weekday breakfast at this cafe with a group of colleagues. George looked after our group and provided exceptional service which matched the great food and coffee. Definitely a cafe worth a visit.
