Melbourne's Best All-Day Diners That Are Open for Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner
These diners do it all, from your morning coffee right through to dinner and after-work wine.
Finding a cafe that does brunch is easy. So is finding a restaurant for dinner. But finding a place for all those awkward in-between times — you know, when you have to walk into a cafe and ask: 'are you still open?' — can be surprisingly difficult. Sometimes you need a 5.30pm coffee, or you need somewhere low-key to do some work over dinner.
Luckily, not everywhere is closed between the hours of 4 and 6pm. These diners are open all day, from breakfast and lunch right through until dinner (and, in some cases, maybe even later) — so you don't have to worry about rocking up just after the coffee machine's been cleaned.
