Salford Lads Club

$$

Uncovering this joint in the wilderness of a Port Melbourne industrial estate is like spotting Avalon through the mists of time. Obscurely named as a nod to The Smiths, it's quite the fairy tale spot, with a tyre swing dangling from a grand old tree outside. Parquetry floors and kooky quirks transform this former auto workshop into something quite magical. The Seven Seeds seasonal blend is citrus-bright black and stands up in milk, while the blackboard menu ranges from simple bruschetta with a brie twist to more exotic fair like peri peri chicken or beef rendang. Despite the locale, you're likely to fight thronging crowds.
