SHORT BLACK CAFE - RICHMOND, MELBOURNE

Short Black Cafe
140 Bridge Rd
Richmond, Melbourne

Nestled among all the outlet shops and other stores on Bridge Road is Short Black Cafe. Its a pleasant place with a few outside tables, others inside and even more out the back. If you hit Bridge Road early this is certainly a decent place to stop to breakfast.


Feeling hungry (as always) I chose the bacon and egg Turkish roll. The bread was nice and fresh, the egg lovely and gooey and the bacon plentiful. It was a decent sized serving too and at under $10.00 good value.

M'Lady was far more conservative and went for the fruit toast which came with butter and jam. I have to admit one noticeable difference between places is how they serve their accompaniments. Whilst little packets are fine, serving butter, jam, cream etc in their own bowls is so much nicer!

The coffee was good as well. We both had a cuppa and they disappeared quickly - then we were on our way again to shop till we dropped in Bridge Road!

Short Black Cafe is good. If their breakfasts are anything to go by then its probably a decent place for lunch as well.
