.....Bloody Good Coffee:
309 Esplanade Lakes Entrance. Ph.: 5155 5633 Open 7-30am till 5pm 7 days.
“Where you do get a “Bloody Good Coffee”
Location: Set in a row of shops close to The Central Hotel in Lakes Entrance. Parking is on street or across the road in a car park overlooking the “front lake”. Simple seating for about 12 inside, and a further 16 to 20 “al fresco”, the area of which is bounded by low level screens and partially sheltered from the elements. Seating is basic yet comfortable, orders taken inside at the service counter and then served to your table. External seating is ideal for those who like to enjoy a coffee with their four legged friends and water bowls are provided. It is a simple, friendly, and relaxed and casual venue.

Menu: As the business title would suggest, this venue serves and specialises in coffee. That elixir of the Gods without which, many of us would simply descend into a jibbering mass with consummate ease. Ok, having admitted to being a coffee addict, let’s get back to the menu. Coffee, (yeah right), and a range of simple breakfast items.

A good variety of toasts, pancakes, and cereals, then the good stuff. Start with a couple of fresh eggs (poached, fried or scrambled) on toast and, as you wish, add any or all of the following: - sausages, bacon, mushrooms, onions, tomatoes, hash browns, and like any self-respecting breakfast, baked beans! Oh yes!! Build your own or go for the Full English Breakfast and you can also indulge in smoked salmon and/or avocado, now we are getting fancy!
Breakfast Toasties also available, great for a “Tradie” morning tea, then if you are not done yet, some of the more specific “eggy” items, Benedict, Florentine and Oceanic. Smashed avocado, served on Turkish bread with your eggs, are there as well as good old Beans on Toast. (no comments please!!).
Dietary restrictions are catered for in this menu. Just don’t forget the coffee! There you go “Brekkie and Brunch” done, but there is a range of sandwiches and cakes/slices for a little later on or for those with a sweet tooth like me.

Enjoy a sheltered al fresco seat

Experience: I have never had a bad coffee here and I have had plenty, it is taken as almost an art form, is served by friendly staff and at a good temperature to your table or as a take away. I am usually with the “boss” who enjoys her cappuccino every time, and it is really handy having a second “fix” while “boss lady” is next door having her hair done! Seriously what can I say, it is simply Bloody Good Coffee. I am a long black man, and here I enjoy the thick crema on top! Sort of soothing and somehow sweet. I have also enjoyed a range of muffins and cakes here but have not yet managed to convince she who must be obeyed, that I need a second breakfast. I will one day but from what I have seen even I will need to be hungry, very hungry, such is the serving size noted. Prices are set in the low to mid-range and are, in my estimation, good value.

| That's what I'm talking about ! |
Summary: Enjoy the simple pleasures of a good coffee here, made by those who appreciate its value and take care in its preparation. It is popular and seating is at a premium, if you see a spot grab it quick!, then enjoy watching the rest of the world go by as you indulge in caffeine.
