Brunetti has 5 locations in Melbourne - we had coffee and cakes at the City Square location. The staff were polite and cheerful. We found the Hazelnut and coffee torte nice and rich and the rum and raisin cheesecake creamy - both as we expected them to be. The coffees were served hot (yay). Great location on Swanston Street, n... More

Brunetti is a Melbourne institution; the flagship store is in Carlton, spread across 3 shops. The City Square iteration is a great place to stop, and the choice is amazing - you could have breakfast, lunch and dinner here, but definitely must try one of the beautiful desserts. There are a lot of pigeons around and it can be cold... More

The pastries are superb and the coffee is nice, not excellent but well made. However the location itself is terrible..it supposed to recreate the typical Italian cafè on a piazza but indeed the settings are quite poor and sad. The worse thing is the tables and chairs are covered with pigeons defecations..I am italian myself and I've never seen something... More

The many people that eat and drink here each day is testament to how good this place is. The food choice, the staff are wonderful and we always go to Brunettis every time we are in Melbourne. Fantastic coffee. Well worth a visit and guaranteed you will go back. More

Most Americans wil gravitate to Starbucks - which is 100 Meters from Brunetti's. Skip the Starbucks. You can get that at home. Brunetti's will give you a superb coffee, latte, cappucinon. And, you can sit in their outdoor or indoor seating area and people watch or have pleasant conversation with your wonderful coffee. I did not sample the tasty pastries,... More

Had quite a few cups of coffee and scrumptious little sweets at this lively cafe. Brunetti is busy so be prepared to wait- worth it though. More
