A light, bright room beckons hungry and thirsty patrons into Excelsior Jones. The cafe squats on a corner in a residential part of Ashfield, an unexpected gem that serves a compact but tasty breakfast and lunch menu, not to mention 5 Senses house blend coffee. Old school milk bar favourites, like cheeseburgers and malted milkshakes collide with modern classics like house-made crunchy granola and bacon and egg sandwiches with capsicum relish. The Chefs, Anthony Svilicich and James Naylor are ex Le Monde, so expect great things. Brekkie and lunch specialities, like pork-hock hash, in a buzzing, light-filled dining room.
