THE IVY ENTRANCE · 29 SMITH ST FITZROY
CAFÉ NO. 05 · FITZROY
Jour Café
Fitzroy · French Café & Store · Parisian soul in Collingwood

The entrance stops you before you even step inside. The entire facade is covered in deep green ivy — lush, patient, climbing every inch of the red brick wall. Above the warm wooden door, the word "Jour" is written in simple cursive script. The most beautiful café entrance in Fitzroy.

Inside: white walls, white bentwood chairs, a coffee bar as calm as a French kitchen. Outside, Parisian-style tables sit on the pavement — and across the road, retired train carriages rest on a rooftop, covered in graffiti, watching the street below.

"Behind you — ivy, wooden doors, a French café. Across the road — old trains on a rooftop. Industrial Collingwood and Parisian elegance in one glance. A magic combination."

I came on a Sunday morning and ordered a flat white and the French crêpe — blueberries, berry coulis, icing sugar, grilled lemon. One of those dishes that surprises you. The canelé and madeleine from the pastry cabinet are made properly and worth ordering every time.

Come without plans. Sit outside. Order something French. Let the morning take its time.

🚃 Look across the road — retired train carriages sit on the rooftop opposite, covered in street art. One of Collingwood's most surreal landmarks.

AUTHOR'S NOTE
"Sitting outside with my flat white, ivy behind me, train carriages across the road — I felt like I was in two cities, two eras, all at once. That is Jour. That is Collingwood."

Jour Café
菲茨罗伊 · 法式咖啡馆 · 科林伍德里的巴黎

这家咖啡店的门口是爬满绿色爬山虎的。整面红砖墙被浓密的常青藤覆盖,茂盛、安静,每一寸都是绿色。温暖的木门上方,"Jour"两个字用简单的手写体刻着。这毫无疑问,是菲茨罗伊最美丽的咖啡馆门口。

走进去,世界完全变了。白墙,白色的弯木椅,干净得像一间法国厨房的吧台。店外,是巴黎风格的小黑桌椅摆在人行道上。坐在那里,抬头望向对面,你会看到一个地球上独一无二的景象:几节退役的火车车厢,停在对面楼的屋顶上,涂满了涂鸦。

「背后是爬山虎与木门,是一家法式咖啡馆。对面是屋顶上的旧火车。工业风的科林伍德与巴黎式的优雅,在同一个视线里——这是一种神奇的组合。」

我是周日早上去的,点了一杯澳白和法式可丽饼——折叠金黄,裹着蓝莓与浆果酱,撒上糖粉,配一片炙烤柠檬。那是一道会让你惊喜的甜点。咖啡干净、平衡,恰到好处。点心柜里的焦糖布丁蛋糕(Canelé)和玛德琳(Madeleine)每次来都值得点。

不带计划地来,坐在店外,点一样法式的东西,让这个早晨想去哪里就去哪里。

作者私语
坐在店外,澳白在手,身后是爬山虎,对面是屋顶上的旧火车——那一刻我感觉自己同时身处两座城市、两个年代。这就是Jour,这就是科林伍德。
