Amidst the African restaurants and exotic supermarkets sits a cafe with no sign. The black umbrellas and big glass windows at the front are the only evidence that there’s a great eatery lurking within: The Social Roasting Company. It’s a welcome addition to the eclectic Flemington landscape, and interestingly, this is a non-profit operation that makes an effort to hire the long-term unemployed.

The company roasts its own coffee (and delivers it on a big green bicycle – no joke). You can also take home a bag of beans for home. The coffee and the breakfast menu are the heroes here, particularly the baked eggs at any time of the day (before the kitchen closes at 3pm, that is).

If you’re lucky you might also be witness to a lovely singing voice booming out from behind the coffee machine.
