95 Espresso

Contemporary

A dark and moody interior that is the epitome of St Kilda's backpacker-meets-beach vibe provides a stark contrast to salads zinging with as much appeal as the bustling pavement tables here. But first breakfast: the full English goes well with the morning-after crowd courtesy of great hash browns and meaty pork sausage. Strong coffee from the La Marzocco machine is toasty with pleasing bitterness, while a cold drip is redolent with toffee and nut flavours. Lighten up at lunch with a poached pear salad or go big with a classy schnitzel. Service can struggle during busy peak times.
