Creator's Key Takeaways
We were consistently impressed by the clear allergen markings on menus across the city.
The mix of sleek modern highrises and Victorian history creates a fascinating juosition that is uniquely Melbourne.
Time and again, even in places where we assumed there wouldn't be a gluten-free option, we were pleasantly surprised.
I love it so much. Just inside is a curated selection of Australian literature. I highly recommend picking up a book and getting lost in it for a while.

Melbourne is a world-class city for coffee and foodies, and it did not disappoint! This was my first time in Australia, and since Nick has been here before, he had plenty of "insider" tips to help me navigate the city while he was in meetings. From the legendary coffee culture to the incredible accessibility for gluten-free and dairy-free travelers, Melbourne is a dream destination. In this video, I’m sharing my 3-day solo (and duo!) itinerary. We explore the iconic "laneways," navigate the tram system like locals, and find some of the best Celiac-safe meals I’ve ever had. What we cover in this Melbourne Travel Guide: Coffee & Brunch Culture: Why Higher Ground and Seven Seeds are a must-visit for any caffeine lover. The Transit Hack: How to use the myki card and take advantage of the Free Tram Zone in the CBD. Celiac-Safe Dining: My 10/10 review of Mamasita (100% gluten-free Mexican!), Seedling Cafe, and the extensive GF menu at Chocolate Buddha. Hidden Gems: Exploring the breathtaking State Library of Victoria (it's like a Beauty and the Beast dream!) and the Royal Botanic Gardens. Local Life: A "Kmart Date," a planning fail at Queen Victoria Market, and marveling at the different birds of Australia. Aboriginal Culture: Visiting the Koorie Heritage Trust to appreciate First Nations art and history. The Hotel Experience: Why we loved the Hyatt Centric Melbourne and how we used our Amex Platinum for room credits. Melbourne has a "creative pulse" that is uniquely its own. Whether you're here for the Victorian architecture or the modern Asian-influenced cuisine, there is something for everyone.
