    Coombe is an absolute gem! The Devonshire tea would have to be the best value in Melbourne. $15 per person for bottomless tea and coffee, two large fluffy, perfect scones, served with delicious peach Melba jam and divine double cream is extraordinary. Architecturally, this building is quite intriguing. Enormous windows to enjoy the beautiful trees and dappled sunlight, stylish wave-shaped batten ceilings, skylit panels, and second hand red bricks walls create a feeling of warmth and luxury. The service is exceptional - always aware, but never intruding. Looking forward to our next visit already!
