Coffee may be king (Seven Seeds beans are impressively handled, from espresso through to pour-over) but food gets more than a shy look-in at Dead Man Espresso. Baked polenta, poached eggs and slippery jack and oyster mushrooms take a lift from a capsicum-style pesto at breakfast, while a curry creme caramel gives raisin brioche French toast a new lease on life. Regulars know lunch is all about sangers that are as classy as the Scandinavian-inspired decor; try slow-cooked mutton with sweet pickles or pork belly and spinach puree on brioche. The vibe is urban-cool with a smile. Fortunate, because with food this good, you will return.
