Stovetop Carlton. Is it Carlton’s Cheers? Maybe? Without implying Ted Danson and Shelley Long hang out here, Stovetop definitely is the kind of neighbourhood spot where “everyone knows your name”. And if not name, then definitely your coffee order. Stovetop is cosy, warm, inviting, and boasts a menu ridiculously stocked with delicious goings-on. Inside, Stovetop is as easy-on-the-eye and cosy as one would expect an immediately-well-loved new Carlton cafe to be. Slightly rustic, slightly filled with a well-designed modern interior, and definitely smells delicious. You know the drill, coffee machine pumping, new cakes and slices made daily, crazy busy during lunch time, a loyal following. Combine that with the fact that the space is a delightful spot for a function, and you’ve got yourself a winner. Stovetop is found on Leicester Street, Carlton. Near Melbourne University, that’s between Queensberry and Pelham Streets. The 19 and 59 trams will get you nearby, as well as all the trams that roll up and down Swanston Street.

I ordered an almond croissant and asked for it to be warmed up. There was no queue, yet it took an unusually long time to serve me. It seemed like the waitress forgot about the croissant in the oven because, after 15 minutes, she finally brought it to me, but it was completely burnt, inside and out. Unfortunately, I didn’t notice until I had already started eating. Overall, it was a really disappointing experience.

@stovetopcafe is a cafe towards University Square/ Melb Uni📍 I love the natural light in this cafe 😍 we enjoyed the nasi Goreng and the baked eggs. Both dishes were so good! All dishes including the cauliflower salad were so generous! We went on a day where they were understaffed and they were so busy with takeaway orders 🥲 the barista and floor staff were out due to covid. We still really enjoyed our meal and coffees- mum really enjoyed the NasiGoreng 😄. Super wholesome. ♥️☀️ 🍳☕️

I just recently celebrated my 30th birthday with 75-80 of my friends and family at Stovetop. To say I'm elated with the overall experience and the memories made would be an understatement. George and his crew made all of us feel like family as soon as the night began, and the space itself was perfect for the night. Not so big that people spread out and don't mix, and not too small that we were on top of each other. The atmosphere and service was 11/10. The food was exceptional. The bar looked and functioned amazingly well also. I couldn't recommend this venue and the people running it more. So much so that I would be inclined to book it again for any other milestone celebrations in the future. Thank you again George and all of the other crew members at Stovetop.

Located in Carlton right near Melbourne Uni is this gorgeous cafe! I have been here years ago and absolutely loved it and I can say that it has not changed one bit in terms of the quality of food and the incredible service 🤍 We had: 🥑 Avocado Bruschetta 🍳 Spanish Omelette 🥞 Blueberry and banana hotcakes Our fave was defs the smashed avo- I have not had a smashed avo this good in such a long time! I loved all the elements of the dish, the avo was generous, the brocollini was perfectly charred and delicious, a good amount of feta and the acidity of the tomatoes helped to balance this all out- honestly YUM! The Spanish omelette came out completely different to how I imagined. It was thick, fluffy and full of potato and chorizo, so delicious! A very filling dish. The only thing I would have loved to have seen is the chorizo to be on the spicier side to give the dish that extra elevation in flavour! I loved the addition of the sourdough! The banana and blueberry hotcakes were the perfect finisher. Drowned in maple syrup, these were divine! I wasn’t expecting the hotcakes to have blueberries in them and they were jam packed and absolutely divine! The addition of granola clusters was perfect for texture and the mascarpone on top helped to balance out the sweetness of the dish. A definite reorder when I revisit 🥰 We felt so welcomed to this homey, cozy cafe! We could not praise the service more. Each staff member was so friendly and made us feel right at home 🏡 A gorgeous interior! A must visit! 4.8/5 🤌🏼
