Be spirited away to La La Land at this newly-opened cafe
Opening in the middle of Hong Kong's rainy season, Melrose Coffee couldn't have brought a dose of sunny Californian optimism to the city at a better time. Named after the world-famous Los Angeles shopping street that borders Hollywood, the cafe specialises in the coffee and brunch culture of the land of milk and honey, with food and drink offerings geared towards the health-conscious and, of course, the Instagram-devoted.
The social media-friendly aesthetics begin at the door, with a rose-tinted exterior that gives way to a pastel-hued interior of pale woods, terrazzo accents, and pool chair-inspired seating—all of which are bathed in a warm glow emanating from diffused ceiling lights.
