Our Story
Born from the laneways.
Corner & Co Kitchen started with a simple idea — great food, made with care, shared in a space that feels like home. Co-owners Mia Chen and Sam Porter built this place from the ground up: Mia in the kitchen crafting seasonal menus from local Victorian produce, Sam out front making sure every guest feels like a regular.
We're open from first light to last orders — because the best days are the ones that start with good coffee and end with a glass of natural wine.
Seasonal Menus
Our menu changes with the harvest, not the calendar.

The Team
The people behind the plates.
Mia Chen
Head Chef & Co-Owner
Mia's menus are love letters to Victorian produce — seasonal, considered, and unforgettable.
Sam Porter
FOH & Co-Owner
Sam remembers your name, your usual, and the wine you liked last time.
Jules Moretti
Head Barista
Jules treats every cup like a craft — single-origin pour-overs and a house blend that's become a local legend.
Tariq Hassan
Pastry Chef
Tariq's croissants sell out before 9am. His sourdough is the backbone of the brunch menu.
What People Say
Don't take our word for it.

Richmond
