La Paloma is a favourite cafe’ of mine and is located at 259 Albert Street, Brunswick. As hinted at by its name, La Paloma offers a delicious insight into the culinary culture of simple Spanish food. The wonderfully “no-frills” environment radiates coolness and makes for the perfect scene to enjoy a strong cafe’ latte’. From the terrazzo paved floor, to the soccer paraphernalia and classic tunes being played through the owner’s beloved record player (yes a real turn table!), La Paloma provides an all round enjoyable experience for patrons.
From La Paloma it is just a short walk down Sydney Road to Savers, Don Bosco op-shop, Aldi and episode, amongst numerous other Brunswick icons. To get to this famous cultural epicentre of northern Melbourne all one has to do is catch the Route 19 tram towards North Coburg from Elizabeth Street in the city!
After enjoying one of Melbourne’s best coffees at La Paloma and buying a couple of cans of Aldi tomato soup (my favourite!!) I felt peckish for something in the cake family...
