Located just a short two-minute stroll from Melbourne’s iconic zoo, you will find hidden café gem, Parkside in Parkville. A modern building houses a contemporary Scandinavian style fit out with a monotone colour palette, a flood of natural light through floor to ceiling windows, exposed timber seating and potted greenery, making for a bright and airy space to enjoy a coffee before exploring the zoo for the day. Parkside’s menu offers an impressive array of tasty breakfast and lunch options to keep you fuelled for hours with options like the fluffy scrambled eggs on housemade paleo bread, garnished with macro herbs and greens. For the ravenous seeking a lunch sure to satisfy, the grilled rye chicken burger, topped with crunchy Asian slaw and housemade creamy sauce, will not disappoint.
