NORTH MELBOURNE WITH KIDS
Mork Chocolate is a highlight for me in this area. It is a hot chocolate shop (they also do coffee) and they are included in the Lonely Planet’s Global Chocolate tour list. There are seats inside on the cafe and as many again out front. No need for a reservation. No high chairs. I had the Junior Dark hot chocolate with a Vanilla Bean Marshmallow. This company pride themselves on using only a few pure ingredients. It’s possible to buy their hot chocolate powder to also take home.
I love this shop Ace Antiques & Collectibles (they are about to open an additional store across the road soon too.) Just 1 min walk from here is the North Melbourne Library too . It’s small but charming and the kids reading section is so lovely. Spots to curl up with a book – even if you’re not borrowing. There are also nice clean toilets on the second floor.
Just across the road from North Melbourne Library is a beautiful Lebanese brunch spot called Al Makan – make a reservation as it’s popular.
I also LOVE Amiconi just 3 mins walk from the library- this place is VIBES!!!!! So friendly and charming. This restaurant has been a Melbourne treasure for more than 60 years.
Remember, when you are in this area – you are also close to the Queen Victoria Market.
