There’s something quietly beautiful about mornings in Melbourne. The streets come alive, the coffee brews, and Melbourne begins to glow. That’s the feeling that inspired Niche. Our baristas don’t just make coffee; they pour their heart into every cup. So, if you’ve ever looked up a “cafe near me” hoping to find somewhere that feels genuine, you’ve found it.
Food is better shared, especially when there’s laughter and good company around the table. And that’s what Niche is all about. Each dish on our menu is crafted to bring people together over good food, whether it’s a family brunch or a catch-up between old friends. Inspired by Melbourne, Australia’s culture hub, our chefs’ love mixing Middle Eastern warmth with a little Melbourne edge. Think fresh, colourful, generous food that comforts without trying too hard. It’s the kind of menu that makes you stay for “just one more coffee.”
