01 / Why it matters

More than a stop on a list.

Explore the cafés and small shops along Degraves Street, then cross Flinders Lane to Centre Place. This is a compact city walk close to Flinders Street Station, with street art and places to stop for coffee along the way. Each business keeps its own hours and menu prices. A morning visit leaves more choice than a late race-night arrival; allow time to find an open table rather than assuming a particular café will be serving.
