The chip butty with curry sauce at Splash is a culinary wonder – the thick white bread double-buttered and steamed to ensure the carefully laid fries stay put. Spiced with warming flavours (ginger, cinnamon, turmeric), it's honestly one of Sydney's best sandwiches. As a bonus, the park-and-pool-adjacent cafe is firmly kid-friendly, stocked with grab-and-go snacks, picnic rugs and custom legionnaires hats for sale (no hat, no play, after all).
Best for: A sunny day on the green, dogs and babies in tow.

Matcha Kobo
This venue is a finalist in the best matcha and specialty drinks category in Good Food's Essential Melbourne Cafes and Bakeries of 2025. Essential Melbourne Cafes and Bakeries of 2025: Matcha & Specialty Drinks See all stories. Previous SlideNext Slide Cafe$$$$ Ascend two flights of stairs to this new CBD matcha haven, where shoji panels conceal a no-shoes zone with cushioned floor seating. Matcha (including a ceremonial-grade option) finds its way into everything from lattes to sweet drinks poured over house-made jams, to spritzes and even tarts. It's sourced from Uji, a city south of Kyoto, and ground in-house in a stone mill on full display.

Melbourne's essential cafes for coffee
The Melburnian urge to mythologise Melbourne coffee is compulsive, but we do have a point. The city's coffee is world-leading, whether you're after a quick ristretto, oat-milk latte or single-origin pour-over with tasting notes. This category is the cornerstone of Good Food's Essential Melbourne Cafes and Bakeries of 2025. Presented by T2, this guide celebrates the people and places that shape our cafe and bakery scenes and includes more than 100 venues reviewed anonymously across 11 categories, including icons, those best for food, tea, coffee and matcha, and where to get the city's best sweets, sandwiches and baked goods. (These reviews also live on the Good Food app, and are discoverable on the map.) See you at one of these venues tomorrow. Disciple & Kohi No Deshi The contrast between these conjoined coffee shops is as plain as black and white. Tiny Disciple is a calm den of dark wood and minimalist design dedicated to black coffee. Espresso and V60 pour-overs are priced from $5 to north of $100 for those who really want to nerd out over premium Panama Geisha. If it's a flat white you're after, head next door for milk-friendly blends and single-origins in a lighter, brighter setting.
