Melbourne Lane Cafe — Restaurant in Faro

Absolute gem of a coffee place as you can see from the raving reviews and queues if you come here during peak season!

It's going to be well worth it!! The coffee is amazing, which is really hard to find usually in Portugal, but the folks here really know a thing or two about how to brew a nice cup, not to mention the awesome Aussie style ice cream coffee.

The food portions are generous and delicious, with a lot of options for every taste. We particularly enjoyed the chicken avo wrap, which was simple but extremely fresh and delightful, and the mushroom toast with feta and hummous (which goes AMAZING with the extra bacon on top which was done upon request).

On top of that the service is sublime, everyone's really trying their best to make sure you have a good time while enjoying great drinks and food. Even when they had a hitch with their ordering system, the service was still super prompt, food came quickly, and I couldn't even tell anything was...

I visited this cafe this morning as someone from Melbourne myself. Pretty hard to compete with Melbourne coffee but this definitely comes close! Coffee had great flavour. The service was probably the best ive had since being in Faro and portugal in general - staff are so friendly and welcoming. Full praise to the team and owner who have only just opened this cafe one week ago. I got the smashed avo on toast and whilst it was really delicious and fresh I would say its quite expensive for the amount you are getting especially compared to competitive prices from other cafes close by. But there are other options on the menu that would have probably been better value for the same price. Would deifnitely recommend a visit to this cafe, I hope to be back. Wishing this new cafe all the best...

We had been to Faro in Sep and I had made a list of all the places to eat based off of places that were coming up on TikTok because that strategy has never failed. I didn’t think to update this list because we found some great cafes. The owner is on holidays for one of my fav cafes, so I searched TikTok again and someone listed Melbourne Lane recently. Thank god they did because this was by far the best, I am obsessed with Aussie coffee and this is what I was missing. All the menus here and huge and half the time they don’t have everything in stock. This place is a perfect menu, may seem small but I don’t think you could be disappointed. Service was top tier, attentive and everyone was smiling. Loved it, we’re here for a week and we...
