We found Humbaba on our first morning trek outside the apartment to find breakfast, and went back every day we were in town and they were open. The coffee is terrific, made with care from beans imported and roasted by the owner. Our Humbaba flat whites were never challenged by other coffees we consumed in Melbourne. The staff were friendly, accommodating, and helped translate certain Australian phrases and customs for us, 60-ish Americans. And, BTW, the breakfast was always good and plentiful. They're not open weekends or holidays, so we had to make do with other places farther away, but we always came back to Humbaba!
