Really cool eatary inside the city. Although you can sit inside, I sat outside, with Flinders street next to me. It is cozy, and though cars come by, it's one way, it is not uncomfortable or disturbing at all. Sam is the owner and I had one of the best breakfasts here with a large Cuppacino. Sam recommends Sam's Omellete - which I will give a go next time around, for sure.So I returned to come see what Sams' Omeltte is all about....well, if your are not very hungry or a big eater - I feel so sorry for you, because this dish is LOADED - bacon, mushroom, sausage, spinach on two toasted slices whole grain with a creamy texture. It is really very tastefull, delicious and alot!

Outstanding service and quality of food. The ultimate casual lunch break for any corporates in the city.The young gentleman Alex is an excellent host.

Small long black (4.50) was strong and incredibly nice, perfect for an early start. Don’t think I’ve ever been served as quickly in the city before either, really impressed. Food looked great with lots of variety
