Maker & Monger

Its so adorable how people who give Maker and Monger 1 star want to keep the place under wraps. I know buy posting this review I will literally be telling Melbourne and possibly the world how AMAZING and TASTY Maker and Monger toasties are but honestly i just can't keep this tasty secret to myself. Now I'm lucky enough to live in the city of Melbourne and indulge in these crispy, salty and hangover cure treats often, but if you happen to find yourself near (make an effort people) to Parhran Markets seriously you WILL be missing out if you don't taste one of these delectable delights of the senses. Also Maker and Monger are my go to for delighting party guests with a "whipped up platter of my own making", aka sure I made this ;). So now the secret its out I'm sorry not sorry cause we all deserve a little bit of tasty in our lives. xx

One of the best cheese shops in Melbourne! The employees are so lovely, they're so informative and have great suggestions on what cheese to pair with what and love to hear about how I'm planing to eat my purchases. A toastie from here in the winter months is a must! The pimento dip is amazing on pretty much anything.

Without doubt the All American is the best toasted cheese sandwich I’ve ever had, topping Borough Market in London. Crispy outside, gooey flavourful inside and not so hot that you don’t burn the inside of your mouth with molten cheese, it’s perfect. The only problem is all the seating has been closed off at Prahran Market so there I am standing up whilst eating the world’s best toasted cheese sandwich. Looking forward to trying the Rueben

The selection of cheese is amazing, but its not just the selection (which you may be able to find elsewhere), its the way in which they are stored, prepared and matured. The condition the cheese is in is what makes Maker and Monger stand out from the rest (they also understand all Roquefort is not created equal!!!) Staff always happy to recommend which cheese is at its best. The condiments and accompaniments are brilliant too. The butter is other worldly... toasties are worth the trip regardless of where in Melbourne you are.

Maker and Monger bring a wealth of experience and professionalism to the Prahran Market. I have been delighted over many years with a wonderful selection of cheeses and friendly staff to point you in the right direction. They truly put joy into their creations. Their toasted sandwiches are so good - generous and tasty. It is not long after I leave that I am craving my next visit!
