About average
27 of the 154 cafes we read in the last 90 days posted a rising drink, and 18 different trends in six months.
“We follow”: cafes whose posts we read that posted in the last 90 days.
- Very trend-forward1.5 times Melbourne's trend activity or more, from at least 3 cafes.
- Trend-forward1.2 times Melbourne or more, from at least 2 cafes.
- About averageclose to Melbourne as a whole.
- Sticks to the classicsabout two thirds of Melbourne or less.
- Too few cafes to sayfewer cafes we follow than a band needs.
The three glasses: Range, how many different trends each cafe posts. Rising, how many cafes post a drink that is rising now. New, how many cafes tried a trend new to them. A fuller glass means more than Melbourne as a whole.
Each part compares a place's cafes with Melbourne. Range counts at most 3 trends per cafe over 180 days. Rising is cafes posting a rising or emerging trend in 90 days. New is cafes posting a trend for the first time in 90 days, and counts half.
Every part is pulled toward Melbourne, as if 8 average cafes were added, so two or three cafes can't swing it. A suburb needs 5 cafes we followed in 180 days, an area 10.
We follow posts from only some cafes, so the band depends on which ones. That is why it is a band with its sample, never a rank. Suburbs inside a band are listed by how many cafes we follow.

Ahead of MelbourneAhead and missing
Ahead: rising trends cafes here post more than Melbourne's do, with at least 5 cafes here posting and a share at least 1.25 times Melbourne's. “2x” is twice the Melbourne share.
Not here yet: trends Melbourne's cafes post widely that few cafes here have. We list one when the Melbourne share would put at least 3 cafes here and we saw half that or fewer.
A gap means we did not see it in the posts we see, not that no cafe here sells it. Last 90 days, 16 Aug to 13 Nov 2026.

What's trending hereHow these shares work
Each bar is the share of the 154 cafes here we followed in the last 90 days (16 Aug to 13 Nov 2026) that posted the trend, against the 1,181 across Melbourne.
“2x Melbourne” means twice the Melbourne share. It shows only when at least 3 cafes here and 5 across Melbourne posted the trend.
Bayside's signature, the trend it posts most against Melbourne, is Pistachio: 2.9x the Melbourne share.
We don't compare with the 90 days before: we follow many more cafes now than then.

A trend arrives in a suburb with the first post we have from there, by a cafe or a customer posting from one. The cafe may have sold it before we started following it, so it is not where a trend began.
These are the 12 newest. Each suburb's page has its full timeline.

Questions about Bayside
What cafe drinks are trending in Bayside?
In the 90 days to 13 Nov 2026, the tracked trends most posted by cafes in Bayside were Matcha (12% of cafes, 19 cafes), Cold foam (6% of cafes, 10 cafes) and Cold brew (5% of cafes, 8 cafes). Shares are of the 154 cafes there we followed in that time.
Against Melbourne as a whole, it over-indexes most on Pistachio: 2.9x the Melbourne share.
Which Bayside suburbs are most trend-forward for cafes?
2 suburbs in Bayside have the 12 or more cafes we follow that we need to compare them, as at 13 Nov 2026. Trend-forward: Cheltenham. About average: Brighton. 10 smaller suburbs have a trend score but too few cafes to rank.
Bayside as a whole is about average. Suburbs inside a band are not ranked, because a band depends on which cafes we follow.
Where can I get Matcha in Bayside?
We have seen Matcha at 163 cafes in Bayside across posts, reviews, menus and press, as at 13 Nov 2026. The most recent sightings: Major Mitchell Cafe (Carnegie), The Village Café & Bar (Mordialloc), Toasted Truck and Deli - Moorabbin (Moorabbin), Green Tree Cafe (Elsternwick) and Sana Coffee (Cheltenham). Each one on this page links to where we saw it.
What is Bayside's signature cafe drink?
Pistachio. In the 90 days to 13 Nov 2026, 5% of the cafes in Bayside we followed posted it (8 of 154), 2.9x the Melbourne share of 2%. No other tracked trend is as far ahead of the Melbourne share there.
Which suburbs are in Bayside?
Along the bay from Elsternwick, Brighton and Sandringham through Black Rock, Mentone and Mordialloc to Chelsea and Carrum, and inland through Malvern, Caulfield, Carnegie and Bentleigh to Moorabbin and Cheltenham. We track cafes in 44 of its suburbs: Aspendale, Aspendale Gardens, Beaumaris, Bentleigh, Bentleigh East, Black Rock, Bonbeach, Braeside, Brighton, Brighton East, Carnegie, Carrum, Caulfield, Caulfield East, Caulfield North, Caulfield South, center, Chadstone, Chelsea, Chelsea Heights, Cheltenham, Edithvale, Elsternwick, Gardenvale, Glen Huntly, Hampton, Hampton East, Heatherton, Highett, Hughesdale, Kooyong, Malvern, Malvern East, McKinnon, Mentone, Moorabbin, Moorabbin Airport, Mordialloc, Murrumbeena, Ormond, Parkdale, Patterson Lakes, Sandringham, Waterways.
How is this worked out?
We track every cafe we can find in Melbourne. We read the public posts of the ones we follow, plus customer reviews, cafe menus and food press. A cafe counts for a trend when it, or a customer posting from it, posted about it. Creators' posts never count as proof a cafe sells something.
A share is the cafes posting a trend in the last 90 days, out of the cafes in the same place that posted anything then. An area needs at least 10 such cafes before we show one. "First seen" is the earliest post we have since 1 Jul 2025. That is when a trend shows up in what we collect, not when or where it started. Figures run to 13 Nov 2026.
