Sensory Lab - Réservation de table

Found this hidden gem along little Collins, with not a lot of signs but a very nice artsy decor inside that matches the unique and strong coffee they produce.<br/ <br/ They serve lots of different types of coffee variants but even a standard cappuccino tastes amazing. Very keen to try a different coffee and even one of their cakes. <br/ <br/ One annoying thing about this place is to order a takeaway coffee, you must order from the little window on the street however if you want to sit inside you can order from inside, it's not a big issue but it is annoying trying to wait along a small footpath with other people which can be busy as it is little Collins st!<br/ <br/

Mondays can be such a drag, knowing that the week would be challenging and potentially taxing considering the amount of late shifts I have lined up for the week. Which brings us to my dependence on caffeine as a mood lifter when the need for brain power kicks in. The aroma of freshly roasted and grounded coffee appeases me in the wake of the rush hour despite the frequent whiff of exhaust fumes from vehicles bypassing the narrow Little Collins street. Muffed in my sweater, I made my order at the counter and stole a few glances at the rather tempting plate of glistening, golden pastries that heavily reminded me of my travelling days in Paris.

I don't always find myself in the central business district, but when I do, a stop at Sensory Lab is a must for me. The coffee is exceptional and the perfect way to start my day on a chilly Melbourne morning. The venue on Lt Collins St has a convenient window for ordering from the street, and the service is typically quick, though it can vary depending on who is working at the window. However, if you're just looking to grab a good quality coffee to go, Sensory Lab consistently delivers. An added bonus is the convenience of using apps like Skip when you're running late in the mornings to quickly pick up your hot drink or breakfast.

Points for: clean layout<br/ <br/ Sensory Lab is another of coffee mongul Salvatore Malatesta's ventures. <br/ The interior is nice and clean, and the layout allows your to discover the styles of coffee on offer if you so desire.<br/ For me, I get a strong skinny latte it has a slighty bitter, slightly earthy taste. Not crazy strong so will be ok for most people.<br/ It's a bit pointless taking a photo of a takeaway coffee so no pic this time. Réservez une table maintenant

The coffee here was very nice, I like how they had a very flexible menu. Their cakes and biscuits were also very nice, I had the salted caramel brownie and it was one of the best I'd ever had. However, after we were given a table it took 15 minutes to try to get the waitress to take our order, and people who arrived after us were prioritised before us. However the ambience of the cafe was very nice

The coffee here is incredibly smooth! I enjoy its mild taste - not too over-roasted or sour. The coffee and milk blend perfectly together, with no significant distinction between the layers (rare to find elsewhere). The restaurant has a cool atmosphere and I plan on returning. However, I wasn't a fan of the butter cup donuts. They looked good but lacked flavor, making them not worth the calories.

Came here today for a post-lunch coffee with my sister. We both got long blacks and we shared a pistachio tea cake from the cabinet. Service was quite good- friendly and quite quick. The atmosphere of the cafe is quite clinical though and does not feel like a place you would sit and enjoy your time. I think it's best suited to takeaway. Coffee was excellent.

While the coffee served here is top-notch, I personally enjoy taking home their exceptional coffee beans. They are some of the best I have ever tasted! Additionally, don't miss out on trying their delicious croissants, priced at $5. Overall, this cozy coffee shop is definitely worth a visit for any coffee lover. Réservez une table maintenant

Cool place with good coffee! I had a chai latte there that was gorgeous as well. The staff is really friendly and helpful!My only complaint is about the available space, there should be room for more people to hang out :

Very tucked away coffee place and it's quite nice to chill out in between shopping as it is just located at the back of David jones. The coffee is good and service is prompt and friendly.
