The industrial looking City Works Depot is home to many gems. When the weekend hits, this little pocket of the city centre thrives. We think it’s worth spending an entire day there to ensure you can experience everything it has to offer.

Smoothie or juice from The Raw Kitchen

To prepare for your exciting day ahead, pop into The Raw Kitchen for one of their wholesome smoothies or juices that will provide you with the perfect amount of fuel for your yoga class ahead. The Raw Kitchen pride themselves on creating beverages that are plant-based, full of nutrients, and most importantly are delicious.

The beautiful contemporary space creates a spa-like ambience, ensuring a clear mind for the days' activities.

3 Bean Coffee for a coffee fix


Time to head up to the top level of City Works, and let the aroma of freshly roasted coffee beans guide you to 3 Bean Coffee’s welcoming, yet intimate coffee shop. Here you can quietly sip back on a delicious and high-quality cup of morning goodness

Now it’s time for breakfast...


After all that drinking and stretching, you’ll probably be feeling a little peckish. Just around the corner is Best Ugly Bagels, a casual, upbeat eatery serving freshly baked bagels right before your eyes, with all the classics and more on the menu. Or head down to The Botanist, it doubles as a florist and eatery with a menu full of goodies like acai bowls or braised beef cheek on potato hash.

Start exploring...


As soon as you step foot in Monstera, it’s easy to forget that you’re right in the middle of the city. Surrounded by lush greenery covering every corner from top to bottom, it’s a plant lover's heaven that one could easily spend hours in.
