I've heard great things of Market Lane, a relative newbie in the frantic Melbourne scene, alongwith Seven Seeds (Mark Dundon's latest venture) ,Cup of Truth, Dead Man Espresso and Flying Goat. However, with the exception of Seven Seeds, I am only repeating the complements of a friend, namely Emanuele Muratore, owner of Ristretto Espresso in Perth, WA (perth's finest by far).
Nevertheless, I spent 5 months in Melb during early '09; the best coffee and dedicated focus was at;
St Ali, Auction Rooms, East Brunswick Project, Mailing Rooms, BBB.
Rays and St Ali were formerly owned by Mark Dundon, but have now changed hands. St Ali is still great though, a hidden gem.
Not sure about A Minor Place, better to walk the 150m or so to East Brunswick Project, who roast their own and are very focused on delivering a great cup.
Hope that helps!...check out coffeesnobs.com.au for more info
