Operator Diner

At this old school American diner you can expect a low-key, laid-back vibe and a menu brimming with dishes that will do their darndest to cure your Sunday morning hangover. Nab a seat in one of the cushy leather booths and get ready to feast.

For (all-day) breakfast, a stack of fluffy buttermilk pancakes comes with pure maple syrup and maple-pecan butter, while the sausage and folded egg muffin is slathered with tangy bacon chutney. From mid-morning, it’s all about hefty sangas (including ciabatta with cold-cuts, pickled veg and coriander mayo) and a suitably sloppy cheeseburger.

Code Black coffee (in classic diner mugs), homemade iced tea and lemonade, and milkshakes head up the drinks list.

The slick fit-out was done by Brunswick firm We Are Humble, which created a space that would feel at home on the streets of New York City.
