Sweethearts Cafe

Sweethearts Cafe
263 Coventry St
South Melbourne

Good Genovese coffee. Cookies $2.50, biscotti $1.80, muesli slice $3.00. Off yellow walls, bentwood chairs, grey blue carpet, north facing, banquette, Arkley print. Shuts at 3. Soup $7.50. Toasted foccacia $13. Tables on pavement. A girl talks on her mobile, fag in hand. Two bottles of Mt Franklin mineral water. No “help yourself” water. You have to ask.

I like this place. I sat at a sun-filled table and gazed out on Coventry St. But closing at 3? Too early.

  1. I like this place a lot too – think it is quiant and very cosy – the kind of place I come even alone with my book and still feel comfortable!
