Melbourne - East Ivanhoe - Vita Belle Cafe

East Ivanhoe Shops - Lower Heidelberg Rd

This is my favorite cafe in the Ivanhoe area. The coffee is always good and you never have to wait too long to get it. The service is top knotch, the staff know who you are and always ask how you're going. The coffee strikes that perfect balance between strength and creaminess. The most important thing is that they know how to do a good flat white which some places struggle with. I would almost go so far as to call it their speciality. This is a great cafe to laze around in because they always have ample newspapers on offer which is something other cafe's can overlook. Foodwise they don't cater so well for the gluten and fructose intolerent amoung us but as there are other cafe's in the area that do so it doesn't really matter. Its fine to just go there and have a coffee. The cafe has a great take away trade going because they get alot of traffic on their way to work stopping by and as such are always open from 7am.
