The Upper Thomson neighbourhood is experiencing a revival, with new cafes like November 8 and One Man Coffee opening in the area. Among them, you should swing by One Man Coffee for great coffee and delicious light bites like its ‘Toad in the Hole’ and the much-lauded French toast.

One Man Coffee shares the premise with Crust Pizza; the former opens from 9am to 5pm, while the latter starts from 5pm onwards. It is easy to miss One Man Coffee from the main road if you are not paying attention, so keep an eye out for Crust Pizza’s signage.

The cafe uses coffee beans from The Axil Coffee Roasters, one of the more popular coffee joints in Melbourne. One Man Coffee may not be the most fanciful cafe, but it has good coffee and inexpensive brunch food – definitely worth a visit if you always frequent the Upper Thomson area.
