It features a range of desks, suites, offices, and meeting spaces, alongside plenty of natural light, greenery, and a vibrant café.

Marameo

Marameo describes itself as neo-Italian dining, steering clear of the traditional to make way for the fun. Feast on the likes of ocean trout with blood orange and fennel, followed by a black truffle cacio e pepe, and wash it all down with one of their many spritzes. This is the place to be if you’re after a fun meal in a happening space.

Distance from Hub: one-minute walk

Otherside Coffee

This hole in the wall on Little Collins Street may be standing room only, but it sure packs a punch. Come for the delicious sandwiches – including a caprese, tuna melt, and reuben – and stay for their ever-rotating supply of sweet treats, and friendly staff.
