Alphabet City Cafe



A local to put other locals to shame, this cafe and bar welcomes old regulars and new-found fans with crazy art, leafy spaces and vegan nibbles.

This is the kind of venue everyone wishes was at the end of their street. Whether it's the bold colour scheme, the uber-friendly staff, or just something about the name, it's as though this cool cafe-cum-bar has a welcome mat outside the size of the Strzelecki Ranges. It probably helps that it's been around forever and there's an army of regulars, along with plenty of new arrivals come to sample the vegetarian and vegan-friendly menu.

As well as the two rooms that face out onto the street, there are another couple of secret squirrel-ish hideaways towards the rear. The whole interior is bedecked with some of the zaniest art on display anywhere and if anything takes your fancy you can put in an offer at the bar. The narrow path leading to the cosy, partially covered beer garden is lined with potted plants and trees for a lush effect, while the walls around the seating area boast enough ivy to make a Harvard graduate feel homesick. Alphabet City is like a really chilled house party that you know you're not going to want to leave.
