Skinnys Eatery

Cafe$

This venue is one of Good Food’s 100 Essential Melbourne Cafes and Bakeries of 2026.

Here’s the skinny: this corner milk bar-turned-diner is quite the scene, patronised by dogs, prams and hungover types in skinny jeans. A simple menu focuses on English muffin breakfast sandwiches (pro tip: add a chicken-salted hash brown) and open-faced bagels, plus there’s steak, eggs and chips for (dusty) protein maxxers. Settle into a coveted booth with a batch brew, refilled for $1.

Must-order dish: House-made square doughnuts, glazed on weekdays and filled on weekends.
