locavore studio, lilydale
/Locavore has become an absolute staple in the Lilydale Main Street and they have just upped the game with a brilliant new renovation with the addition of the providore and the resident coffee king - Proximal - opening their very own roastry at the back.
The cafe is STUNNING. With huge ceiling and natural light filling the space, it is nothing like we have seen in the outer east before. We love the giant mural on the wall as well as the booth seating. The menu remains true to the Locovore flavours with fancy bunch options, all perfectly balanced in flavours.
If you don’t want to bring the whole crew indoors (prams may prove difficult in this one), there is outdoor, roadside dining and even a coffee window for takeaways.
There is a dazzling display of pastries and cakes too - but the Providore next door has fully stocked cabinets of cheeses, deli meats, heat at home meals and all of the sauces you can dream of. Plenty of gift ideas in there too!
The most exciting part (and yes, Mamma is planning on getting there super soon for this) is the Locavore Nights. On Thursday, Friday and Saturday evenings the crew offer a full dinner service including an impressive Feed Me style menu and tasty cocktail menu.
