Outstanding Korean street toast cafes in Melbourne CBD

Insta-Famous Toastie Shop

Opt for the version with ultra-thick egg. Pair it with an iced dalgona coffee for a perfect meal.

Melbourne’s First Gilgeori Toast

Palette offers Korean-style sandwiches in a light, minimalist setting in North Melbourne. This café blends local and Korean aesthetics and was among the first in Melbourne to serve the iconic street toast, sparking a local trend. The toast starts with buttery brioche, a fluffy omelette, and a hash brown. Customize it with toppings of your choice, but don’t miss the candied bacon. Enjoy it with Seoul’s favorite drink, an iced americano, or a pastel-colored soda.

Breakfast K-Sandwiches

The K-sandwiches at this small hidden cafe are incredibly popular and often sell out by midday. Three Drops Coffee crafts their bestselling sandwiches with fluffy eggs, cheese, and generous amounts of tasty sauce inside soft, pillowy bread. They offer a classic ham and cheese, a vegetarian option, and even a sweet sandwich. Order yours with guacamole and a coffee for breakfast, or preorder for lunch to ensure you don’t miss out. They also serve an excellent bulgogi baguette made with a traditional family recipe and the chef’s secret sauce.
