Just like sister cafe Porgie and Mr Jones in Hawthorn, Snow Pony lures you in with hanging flower baskets and jazz. Once inside, it feeds you with the signature all-day breakfast menu (yes, you’ll find the famous smashed avo here) and a seasonal lunch menu that might include decadent smoked duck and pomegranate salad.

Busy all day with everything from business catch-ups to mother’s meetings, staff deliver cheer with your latte, while you peruse the menu full of specialty produce.

The front room – full of industrial lights, pillowy leather banquettes and a long communal table with sunny yellow stools – gives way to a hidden room, which takes you through a converted outdoor passage to find a surprising back courtyard.
