    Kelvin Grove Hot Bread

    Walk two minutes to Kelvin Grove Hot Bread. Get in early for fresh bread while it is still warm. The bakery opens at 07:00 on weekdays, making this the perfect first stop.

    The Menagerie

    Head three minutes down the street to The Menagerie café. Grab a coffee and enjoy your bread. This café is open from 07:00 on weekdays, so you can sit back and let the morning wake up.

    Victoria Park / Barrambin

    Take a 17-minute walk east to Victoria Park / Barrambin. This heritage-listed park offers a quiet, green escape in Spring Hill. It is a pleasant spot for a post-coffee stroll among the trees.
