Nestled in the middle of QV Square in Melbourne, Amiri Cafe is a day-to-night Asian-inspired cafe that combines Asian and Melbourne flavours.
A long banquette seating mirrors the expansive monolithic main counter. Custom joinery such as the booth seating and planter box divide the large space into more intimate zones without needing full-height partitions. The overall ambience of the cafe is bright and airy because of the light and minimal material palette –with a perfect balance of neutral and textural elements, much like the equally divided menu of sweet and savoury offerings.
