A favourite of ours. The brunch menu is sometimes unusual and a bit adventurous but the food is, without fail, excellent. The coffee is also sensational.

The Saint, as it's known to locals, is a cool 2-floor bar / restaurant for European fare, with distressed brick walls, large windows & atrium dining. Young and sophisticated, chic and cool, it doubles as a bar / nightclub after dark. Eat here during the week, dance here on weekends.

One of four bars in The George, the iconic white building on the corner of Fitzroy and Grey Streets. This place is actually relatively new, having only opened in mid-2016. A trendy yet relaxed bar with craft beers, hot dogs and a pool table. The outside seating is very popular for people-watching on warm days. A personal favourite.

Parks & Nature

A bit of a local secret. Tucked away from all the hustle and bustle just off of Acland St, this is where locals come to relax on those beautiful Melbourne spring days when it's not quite warm enough for the beach. Universally popular.

The beach itself is admittedly not great as far as beaches go, but the walk along the pier or the boardwalk is nice. Can get very busy and rowdy during the summer - if you're after somewhere more peaceful, go to Elwood.

A bit of a walk or a very short drive, we generally prefer this beach to St Kilda beach as it is quieter and less touristy. Active types can jog or ride here along designated paths from St Kilda beach. Good views of the city and public barbecues in the extensive parklands adjacent.

The breakwater which protects the harbour is home to a colony of Little Penguins. Although they are present year round, the best time to see them is summer. Head down just after sunset.

The iconic face of St Kilda. A must-see, and great for families. Home to the Scenic Railway, the oldest continually operating roller coaster in the world, and one of only three roller coasters (the others being in Great Yarmouth, UK, and Copenhagen, Denmark) that require a brakeman to stand in the middle of the train.

Built in 1936, the Astor is the grand old girl of Melbourne cinemas. Shows mostly classic films, but you can also catch a b-grade movie or even a sing-along! Look out for the resident cat, Duke, who has free run of the cinema.
