5 Best Melbourne Restaurants
Hardware Société
Best known for their Baked Eggs (Deux), Lobster Benedict and French Toast, Hardware Société has quickly become a must visit for all Melbourne travellers. If you’re looking for the perfect breakfast menu and excellent coffee, be sure to pay the little lane way in the middle of the CBD a visit. With great popularity, comes long queues, so if you prefer a shorter wait, pop by early in the morning. Either way, it’s definitely worth the wait.
