Coffee, Interior Design
Melbourne, Australia
Built into one of North Melbourne's old auction houses, Auction Rooms was the first to patent that bustling communal vibe, with its long share tables circling the copper-plated barista bench, little two-seaters next to the tiled open kitchen, and a conservatory-style outdoor area, overgrown with leafy tropical plants. The café doubles as a roaster, serving up Small Batch coffee, and featuring a rotating selection of daily blends, courtesy of ex-owner and Small Batch maestro, Andrew Kelly. The menu is a compact one-page wonder. New dishes come and go, but the belly-warming classics endure.
