Mr Baxter Melbourne is the newest bagel spot to land in WeFo and Mamma is already planning her next visit. Serving up everything bagels, loaded sandos, specialty drinks and insane NY-style cookies, this gorgeous little café is quickly becoming a local favourite — and honestly, Mamma can totally see why! Mamma also LOVES that there’s a dedicated kid’s menu for the minis.
