Town & Country Balwyn

Enjoy a little rest and respite, retreating to the nursery garden of Town & Country Balwyn homewares, café and garden centre on Whitehorse Road. Take a wander through the flourishing shrubbery past vibrant flowering hydrangeas, fragrant rosemary and delicate lavender, unwinding and refreshing the soul before nourishing the body inside this cosy café, or out, under wide café umbrellas pin-striped in charming black and white. For a bite to eat, peruse a menu of contemporary stylings crafted with fresh and seasonal produce in mind. Brunch may warrant a plate of smashed avocado with heirloom tomato and corn salsa with black sesame, mint, feta and charred lemon on multigrain toast or a sweet serve of Dr Marty’s crumpets with passionfruit, mascarpone, fruit, praline and mint.
