August weekends in Melbourne aren’t exactly known for sunshine.
Instead of staying home all day, hide away at our cosy spot in Box Hillβ€”
grab a window seat at Nelson, watch people hurry past outside, and enjoy brunch slowly in the warmth.
The Big Breakfast comes hot and loaded, with perfectly runny eggs
The scrambled eggs on sourdough are always a solid choice
Add a pot of hot tea, settle in, and stay until lunchtime.
We open from 8am on weekends. Cloudy days are usually quieter, so it’s easier to grab a good seat.
Bad weather? Don’t stay homeβ€”come get cosy βœ…

Sharing a very popular combo β€”
a croissant fresh from the oven, still flaking, next to a hot latte.
Pull it apart and the steam goes up, butter and coffee all at once πŸ˜‹
A hot, flaky bite on a cold morning is genuine happiness.
Sweet or savoury β€” can't decide? Try both.
Opens at 7, perfect for an early one.
Worth the trip to Box Hill for this alone β˜•πŸ₯

Run a place long enough and you start remembering people.
There's a nurse on nights at Box Hill Hospital who comes by every morning after her shift β€” same order, large hot latte, extra shot.
These days she doesn't even ask; I start making it the moment she walks in.
She calls it β€œthe one reward after a whole night.”
That's the best thing about a small place like ours β€” your usual.

Winter calls for a cafe you can burrow into.
Nelson's near Box Hill Hospital and walking in just warms you up β€”
🀎 Window table: daylight, very photogenic
🀎 Two-seater at the back: quiet, for zoning out or catching up
🀎 Bar stools: watch the barista work, weirdly soothing
Order something hot, curl up, and the cold-day grumpiness is gone.
After a shift, waiting for someone, or just some alone time.
Save it for your next cold morning β˜•

Been making coffee a while β€” here's how I order mine in winter:

Hot latte + an extra shot, foam on the thicker side. Wakes you up and warms you up, way better than just adding sugar.

And a lazy favourite: a dirty β€” cold milk on the bottom, hot espresso on top, hot-and-cold in one go, all the layers.

Weekends I'd rather skip the city crowds and find a quiet cafe near Box Hill.

Walked into Nelson last weekend and the window table had me β€” winter sun coming in low, wood, warm light, such a vibe πŸ“·

Sit-in coffee, a plate of brunch, stayed the whole morning.
Opens 8 on weekends; come early and the window seat's yours.

Box Hill locals β€” skip the delivery, come sit a while β˜•
