Old Maids

The same locals that hit the happy hour at next door’s Saint Maries head to this eatery for flat whites, miso scrambled eggs and breakfast burgers. Our pick is the Uncle Dutchy, with fried egg, bacon, hash brown and avo. The burger theme carries through to lunch, where you can get almost any style you desire, from chicken to fish and beef. It’s hard to go past the fighting fish (grilled fish, slaw, kimchi, coriander, aioli and chilli), although we have a soft spot for the Hawaii (beef, cheese, grilled pineapple and bacon).

The cafe closes at 8pm and allows BYO, so grab a bottle from nearby Bottle and Hoop and take a seat on the outside tables. When next door’s music is pumping, this too is a good spot to linger.
