With funky music, a well-stocked bar and fluoro decor, this establishment targets 20 and 30-somethings who have not yet lost their groove thing. With walls painted in blocks of orange, yellow, purple and green and furniture to match, this venue certainly attracts attention. But patron comfort is also provided with cooling fans for summer, an open fire for winter and a beer garden. Catering for diners as well as drinkers, this cafe-bar serves breakfast until 1pm with the usual toast, eggs, muffins (the whole hog costs AUD8.90). At noon the daytime menu kicks in, featuring wood-fired pizza, pasta & risottos, and delicious focaccia sandwiches.
