Smith Street, Fitzroy

Brew your
evening.

Little Daylight is a neighbourhood café on Smith Street. Coffee from first light, breakfast and lunch from the kitchen, and slow afternoons by the window.

A cup under three spouts: Espresso, Milk, Strawberry. Hold a spout to pour your own drink. On the counter: strawberries and ice to toss in, and spoons to stir with.

Your turn. Press and hold a spout to pour.
