Coffee rocks here
The bohemian capital of Melbourne. Fitzroy was once a rough area. Those who love noise, socialising and action belong here. Fitzroy is a temple to the boho, bookish, creative, arty, and to the politically astute.

A popular arty chair
Brunswick and Gertrude Streets attract both locals and visitors to Melbourne who love shopping for themselves. You can easily spend a few hours along Brunswick Street. When you're here, you definitely want a coffee of some description. The area is much cleaner than what it once was. On weekends, Brunswick Street is naturally crowded.
