Flowers of the World is a beautiful cafe & florist in the heart of Southbank, my husband bought me a beautiful bunch of flowers from here and they lasted for weeks so definitely market fresh. I've since tried their coffee as well and can recommend that as well, great place to grab a take away coffee on your way to check out the markets.

Although this is a florist and cafe in one, I have only ever used the cafe section, never bought flowers. I went once with friends for coffee. The service was good - things were brought to the table quickly. The plates were pretty and stylish and the whole place had a relaxed feel. HOWEVER - one event happened that has put me off going there forever - I asked whether they had Italian hot chocolate. The staff member said 'no, we only have the black and gold stuff' (For those who don't know Black & Gold is like Home Brand). I was horrified that cheap, low quality supermarket coco power was used in the cup I paid quite a few dollars for. So despite the good atmosphere and the decent service, I will not be returning.
