Market Lane Coffee Collins Street

Overview

Market Lane Collins Street is your destination for espresso and filter coffee, beans and equipment at the top end of the city. Located in historic Portland House near the intersection of Collins and Spring streets, the small shop is one of six Market Lane locationa, with the boutique roastery also operating cafes in Carlton, Prahran, the Queen Vic Market and South Melbourne. It serves its own espresso and filter coffee as well as a small selection of cakes from Beatrix Bakes in North Melbourne.

The Collins Street store was designed by Sarah Trotter of Hearth Studio, with eucalyptus-green walls and tessellated floor tiles meant to reflect the building's Victorian heritage. Textured fabric walls and seating, matte walnut cabinetry and the use of cloudy marble stone are influenced by the work of Australian painter Clarice Beckett (1887-1935), who studied at the College of Art across the street.
