Full description

The Melrose Café leans fully into its aesthetic, with a candy-pink, girly interior that reviewers describe as fun and photogenic rather than understated. Colorful drinks and desserts — the strawberry matcha gets particular attention — fit a menu clearly designed with social media in mind, and the cafe's aesthetic and trendy scores rank among the highest in this set.
