Cafe/Bistro/Restaurant Recommendations In Melbourne

Hi,

The wife and I have tried a few of the places recommended in the Age's "Cheap Eats" with mixed results. Thus I thought why not ask the members here if they have any places they would recommend (or maybe even avoid:wink:). Would those who are kind enough to reply please mention if it is a either a cafe, bistro or restaurant - it would be much appreciated:2tsup:.

Cheers

Hi Steve,

I beg to differ. Having spent 17 years working at he Uni of Melbourne I have been in most of the various places around there with varying degrees of success:wink:. Personally I think Threshermans Cafe (in Faraday Street) is far better value for money than a lot of the upmarket places in that area.

That is why I asked for people to state places by name as certain areas can still have good and bad places in them:wink::).

There's a nice bistro in the pub on the corner of Lennox St. & Richmond Terrace, Richmond.
In Bridge Rd. Richmond there are quite a few good restaurants - Djakarta for one, but there are plenty of others - Italian, Vietnamese, Lebanese (with belly dancer).
