THE CAFFEINE FIX

Serving coffee until we close, every single day of the week.

As a proud Melbournian deeply immersed in our vibrant coffee culture, I proudly consider myself a coffee aficionado. Let's be real, for us, coffee isn't just a caffeine fix—it's a whole experience, a cherished ritual that elevates our spirits with each sip. There's something truly enchanting about witnessing a skilled barista meticulously craft your beverage, from grinding the beans to expertly steaming the milk. It's like witnessing an art form unfold before your eyes, each sip delivering a symphony of flavour and aroma.

But beyond the sensory pleasures, coffee is also about connection. It's about coming together with friends over lattes or finding solace in the cozy ambiance of your favorite café. And let's not forget the sheer convenience of having someone else prepare your coffee while you simply sit back and savor the moment.

So, the next time that craving for coffee strikes, why settle for anything less? Join us at Drizzl’d for a truly exceptional coffee experience paired with delectable desserts. Trust me, you'll thank yourself for it. “Yeah, you deserve it!”

DRIZZL’D

Because, you deserve this.

“Yeah, you deserve it!”

Drizzl’d (ZZ). Bringing back good times, great friends, and the art of the decadent dessert. Here at DRIZZL’D, we love to  share the showmanship that goes into making desserts that’s well deserved. Imparting a sophisticated and refined twist to some common dessert favourites, every item on our menu has been dreamt up to ignite sweet memories and is made before your eyes.

Doughnuts, drinks - desserts

“Most popular ones”

Officially founded in the heart of the COVID-19 pandemic, the idea of ZZ came by well before this. It started one night after a long 14 hour work day where my cravings for a sweet treat that’s well deserved were through the roof. I was hunting for something to curb this craving. I found it. I took my first bite. Suddenly, this overwhelming feeling of satisfaction flooded my mind and taste buds. Here, I thought to myself “Yeah, I deserve this”. It was at this point that I knew I had to do something within the dessert space here in Melbourne. And so, ZZ was born.

It’s been a rollercoaster journey and I can’t believe we are now into our third year of being open! There is nothing within this journey I do regret as I’ve learnt so many things through-out this journey. I’ve enjoyed every second of this and it's been an absolute pleasure serving our menu to our customers in and around Moonee Ponds. We are so grateful for all our staff, our suppliers and of course, our loyal customers! We thank you all for the ongoing support through-out these 3 years and we would not be where we are today without you all!

What’s in for the future of ZZ? Only time will tell.
