About the Melbourne coffee culture&nbsp;

What is so special about&nbsp;Melbourne&#39;s coffee culture?&nbsp;Coffee is part of Melbourne&#39;s DNA. To true Melbournians, having a coffee is all about the experience. Enjoying a nicely blended coffee and disconnecting from your everyday life.

&nbsp;

But how exactly did Melbourne become so crazy about coffee? The history of Melbourne coffee finds its origins in the 1880s. The city was facing problems with alcoholics and anti-social behaviour on the streets. A temperance movement started campaigning against city boozing. The movement meant&nbsp;that pubs had to close at 6 o&#39;clock. Another effect of the temperance movement was the introduction of grand coffee palaces. There people could enjoy a lovely atmosphere, comfortable&nbsp;surroundings and socialising without the consumption of alcohol. That was when&nbsp;Melbourne developed their taste for coffee.&nbsp;The city only knew about percolated coffee until the 1930s, when a&nbsp;lovely espresso machine arrived in Melbourne at Cafe Florention in Bourke Street.&nbsp;

&nbsp;

After WWII, post-war migrants came to live in the inner city suburbs, such as Collingwood and Fitzroy. That is when a European cafe culture was born. Older teahouses were transformed into coffee lounges. Soon milk bars and suburban shopping centres also jumped on the espresso train. By the 1970s, coffee culture in Melbourne was thriving and this tendency continued to become even bigger in the 80s and 90s.

&nbsp;

Today, Melbourne&#39;s coffee tradition is highly&nbsp;alive and kicking. Now it is all about experimental flavours and single-origin roast.&nbsp;The fascinating history of the coffee culture combined with today&#39;s coffee experimenting is why many people argue that Melbourne has the world&#39;s best coffee.&nbsp;
