Good coffee, however slacked on the food side. Looked like something I could cook in a caravan, basic plastic bright plates and poor presentation. Also description of menu items weren’t a rear enough. I ordered a spicy beans and chorizo brunch with sourdough bread and it came out as tacos.. flavour was there but that’s it. Probably wouldn’t be returning.

Melbourne small local cafe at its best. Good coffee and a twist on the usual breakfast list. Had the Eggs Benedict with the pulled pork. Perfect

I went to this cafe in South Melbourne for a coffee. I intended to get a plain croissant but decided against it when I saw they were $5 each. My strong skinny latte had good flavor but lacked milk froth. The price of my coffee was reasonable and the cafe also offers bread rolls and sandwiches, but unfortunately none of them were what I was looking for at the time of my visit.

Dead Men Espresso was a cafe located in South Melbourne that offered delicious coffee and brunch options. I had visited a few times and consistently enjoyed the great coffee and friendly service. During my last visit, I tried the porterhouse open sandwich and breaky bowl. The porterhouse was juicy and paired well with sweet potato crisps, while the breaky bowl was a healthier choice with eggs, quinoa, and various greens. Both dishes were flavorful and served in generous portions. I am excited for the cafe to reopen.
