When I’m up in the legal precinct and feel like a treat I can’t go past this place. Sadly Le Rare Roast Beef is so delicious I’ve struggled to taste many others. Chewy, crusty baguette stuffed with rare thinly sliced roast beef, lettuce, tomato and cornichons and finished with mayo and tangy mustard. I can’t eat a whole one... the service is just wonderful and they don’t mind if you practice your hack at French. Highly recommended.
Moderately priced for quick lunch.
Authentic baguette cafe in Queen Street. Tous les jours madeleines et waffles maison (every day madeleines and waffles house). The owner is Murielle and all the staff are French, super friendly and always chatting to customers in French. The soup of the day ranges from Mushroom to lentil and vegetable (+ you can get their half baguettes which are some of the best baguettes going around). Soup always runs out by 1pm - so get in quick!!! Best French spot in the city.
Most delicious baguette I had today that reminded me of being in France 14 years ago. warm bread and creamy mayonnaise with a vegetarian filling. Friendly quick service for my lunchtime snack. I will be back for sure!
A lovely space, lovely food and lovely service. I would recommend to everyone who enjoys fresh sandwiches and good coffee and french accents. I will definitely be back.
Ordered the Le Parisien, the baguette was a little hard for my liking but the simple taste of ham, cheese, mustard and pickle was good. For $11, the price is a little steep but considering all their other fillings with more ingredients are the same price, might try the others another time.
A bonus that the staff all speak French.

Had my first saucisson here. The lady was very sweet, good service. I thought the saucisson was much better compared to the ham. The toasted baguette made it an amazing meal - it was crunchy on the outside, balanced with fluffiness inside.
Been going here for nearly a year as my office is across the road. Staff are always lovely and friendly and now know me by name. The food is absolutely fantastic and the coffee is always made just right. Highly recommend the croque monsiuer for breakfast or a traditional ham and cheese croissant. I have even picked up some french with the owner speaking to me and teaching me each time I go there it's great!
This week place is consistently great. Some of the best baguettes in town and with friendly service. Standard items are all good but best item I’ve discovered from my boss is an off menu item he told me not to name. It’s butter, avocado, tomato, cheese, salt, pepper and a splash of their balsamic/EVO dressing. Dynamite
So good, there is a reason for the queue out the door. Do wish there was more roll combinations but what it there is also good. Ingredients are fresh, bread is amazing.
What I assume to be the owner, was so friendly. He was so polite and the coffee was one of the best I’ve had in a long time! Will definitely come back ❤️
Great coffee, great pastries, small but cozy environment. Best of all great staff and professional barista. I think their magic is one of the best in CBD. It makes me feels like I’m having coffee in Italy 🇮🇹. Couldn’t ask for more!
A small cafe, but the taste of coffee is amazing!
Located in Melbourne CBD, convenient place, so worth visiting!

Great little cafe with sensational coffee. Visit in the morning and you are sure to overhear some interesting conversations between legal barristers discussing their cases. The cafe is the legal precinct. Service was a little slow as they were flat out being prime breakfast time. Certainly worth a visit.
Food is always great here, especially eggs in the morning or freshly made pies for lunch. But the coffee is what I always head to Speck for. It’s just Michel doing the coffee and Catherine making all the delicious food. In particular, I am partial to the croissants and biscotti that is made there. Great for takeaway or dine in. Wonderful atmospheric Italian cafe.
Comfortable and peaceful mood.
Staff is very kind and made me coffee with soy milk that is the most fantastic coffee that I've had until now. Thank you
Michael was an absolute gentleman, celebrating an engagement tonight. Michael is highly professional and made everyone feel at home. The food was immaculate, overall we were so impressed with the service and qualith of the food, will definitely be back! Would give 6 out of 5 stars if i could.
Best coffee in the town, the man brews it with pride and passion.
The almond croissant is my favourite snack, if you like that kind of coffee snacks you will not regret trying it.
The service is second to none in the Melbourne cbd.
