M&S Café

You're browsing M&S on George Street, that stretch of Richmond where everyone's popping in and out of the usual suspects, and suddenly you remember there's a proper café tucked inside. It's not trying to be anything fancy—just a reliable spot to grab a flat white and a slab of cake that actually tastes like someone bothered. The setting's functional rather than Instagram-worthy, which is sort of the point. You'll see locals who know the drill mixing with shoppers taking a breather, and it all feels genuinely unpretentious. Prices won't hurt your wallet either, sitting comfortably in the mid-range for what you're getting.
