The Bearded Jaffle Milk Bar

Half a jaffle held up to demonstrate the oozing cheese above a mound of potato gems.

Cut into triangles, the best way to slice a sandwich.

The Bearded Jaffle Milk Bar is a unique fusion of a corner store milk bar and a toastie cafe, offering a delightful twist on classic favorites. Step inside, and you'll be greeted by the friendly atmosphere, complemented by retro posters and memorabilia that evoke a sense of nostalgia. The simple yet modern furniture and sleek silver La Marzocco coffee machine bring you back to the present century.

There's classics like the pastrami and cheese reuben, alongside the more unexpected Dorito-crumbed chicken parma. The crimped edges of a jaffle make it just a little bit easier to eat than a normal toastie, and a healthy serving of potato gems doesn't go astray.

Don't forget to pair your food with their very decent coffee, made from beans sourced from Sunny Boy Coffee.

Weekday lunch deal

At $15 for a jaffle, side and drink, you're losing money if you don't buy it.
