In the heart of Spotswood, lies a hidden gem that has become a favourite among families and food enthusiasts alike. Innerbloom Cafe, open seven days a week, offers a satisfying escape into the world of brunch delights.
This charming eatery not only provides a haven for brunch lovers seeking diverse flavours, but also creates a warm, inviting atmosphere for parents and children. Whether you’re craving a hearty breakfast or a fusion of Australian and Asian cuisine, Innerbloom Cafe is the place to be.
As you step into the cafe, you are welcomed by a relaxed vibe that instantly puts you at ease. The contemporary decor creates a cosy setting, making it a great spot for a casual catch-up with friends or a leisurely family outing.

We love the delicious variety of food on offer. From tasty burgers and fresh banh mi to aromatic stir-fries and wonton noodle soup, every dish is crafted with quality and flavour in mind.
One of the standout features of Innerbloom Cafe is its all-day breakfast menu. Imagine waking up on a lazy Sunday morning, knowing that you can indulge in fluffy pancakes, perfectly poached eggs, and freshly brewed coffee at any time of the day. From classic bacon and eggs to innovative avocado toast creations, Innerbloom Cafe satisfies every breakfast and brunch craving.
For the kids, there’s eggs on toast, nuggets and chips, a cheese toastie, pancakes or waffles. As well as delicious coffee, grown-ups can enjoy fresh juices and smoothies, and even alcoholic beverages.
For parents, Innerbloom Cafe is not just a great brunch or coffee pit-stop. As there’s a promise of play for the little ones, you can stay longer and really enjoy yourselves. The cafe features a charming kids’ playground in the courtyard out the back, where children can roam around while parents enjoy a peaceful meal.
Four dining tables in the courtyard area allow easy access for kids to come and go between their food and the play equipment, while parents are close by to supervise. Each table can fit 4-5 people, so it’s also an ideal space for larger families or small groups.
Now let’s talk play. The small cubby, plastic climbing frame with slide, cars and trike are on soft astroturf, which is ideal for toddlers, crawlers and pre-school-aged kids to enjoy a good run-around. Imaginations will be nicely nudged as they climb, slide and explore with role play.
Some kids’ books and colouring activities are available too.
There’s space for prams or strollers in the courtyard area. High chairs are available but note that there are no baby change facilities in the bathrooms.
Spotswood itself is an appealing suburb that offers a unique blend of urban convenience and natural beauty. Known for its historical significance, vibrant community, and proximity to the waterfront, it’s a destination full of fun for families.
For curious kids, Scienceworks including the Melbourne Planetarium is located just down the road from Innerbloom Cafe, which means you can make a day of it.
