Major Mitchell Cafe

Best Known For

Prawn gumbo roll with braised cabbage, chorizo crumb, chimichurri aioli and a side of chips.

Housed in the old 1950s Glen Huntly post office, head to pink-hued Major Mitchell Café on Grange Road in Carnegie for cocktails and fare with flair. From the bright pink door and terrazzo bar to the pink walls, this is the ideal chill-out spot for a Daly St Roasters Chosen One house blend to go with brunch and lunch plates like a turkey bagel with cranberry and apple relish, brie, dill and horseradish cream cheese. Perhaps devour slow-cooked beef brisket on a sourdough crumpet with braised cabbage, poached eggs, onion ring and Vegemite Hollandaise, while the lunch crowd pairs a glass of Shiraz with slow-cooked lamb shoulder, baba ganoush, carrots, feta, chickpeas, pistachio za’atar and herb pita. Burger lovers opt for chilli soft-shell crab, crispy noodles, slaw, fried egg and coriander.
