A delicious, caramel, silky blend of beans from our friends at Mansfield Coffee Merchants, just peering around the corner. Followed by a machine where those beans get ever so lovingly and delicately, poured through our San Remo, making her presence known as soon as you walk in to see them. Cheeky devils ...

09.01.2022 Hello amazing M&A customers As most of you will have heard the state government has established more rules for us to abide by at the cafe. As of tomorrow staff at M&A may ask you for ID to confirm your town/city of residence , this is to follow the directives of the premier announced today, that no melbournians are allowed dine in service at regional eateries. Some may find this intrusive and may even decline the ask , we apologise in advance if that is the feeling but we are only abiding by these directives so as to not bring a $10,000 fine on ourselves. With a bit of luck and hope , this will only be for a short while and things will return to normal as soon as possible . We thank ALL our M&A customers for their co-operation in these uncertain times and hope to see you all soon .
