king street doesn't get talked about the way fitzroy or collingwood do, but house blend by zelos has built a quiet following in this part of the cbd anyway. the kind of place you end up returning to on a tuesday because the breakfast was good and the coffee did exactly what you needed it to do. it sits in a strip of the city that's mostly office workers and through-traffic, which makes finding a spot that actually cares about specialty coffee feel like a small, specific win. solo visits work well here, which matters if you're working through a laptop and need somewhere that won't rush you. the brunch menu and desserts round it out beyond a straight caffeine stop. start with the coffee, stay for something to eat.
