When I first started frequenting BBB, I was so thrilled that fabulous well made coffee was just around the corner from the office. The standard has since dropped, and the coffee isn't quite as consistant as it used to be. It still is one of the better places for a cuppa in the cbd though, and with a creative fitout, a sexy synesso and the beautiful clover, the experience makes up for what the coffee lacks in excellence.
Real coffee comes back to Melbourne.. I was bemoaning the fact that franchises are taking over and coffee is becoming a flat bland frapachino affair.
I was about 2 Starbucks and a Gloria Geans away from topping my self when i stumbled upon this unassuming yet tasteful caffeine dealing hole in the wall.
With limited space you be rubbing shoulders with all walks of life from the bottom feeding student to double parked Mercedes driving socialites. It is not uncommon to bump into quite a number of regulars as this is a place that does not disappoint.
To enjoy on premise there is of course the coffee, a range of teas, organic juices and soft drinks. As well as a tempting verity of pastries (the almond croissants and the cherry danish top the list for me).
If you like it hot at home, you can purchase one of their many special blends that are ground and vacuum packed while you wait. I highly recommend Blend X, a smooth, robust flavor with a spike in its tail.
When purchasing coffee at around 9am on a weekday there may be a delay due to its popularity Vs size.
