"Abacus bar & kitchen is a cafe concept that could and should be replicated and enjoyed all around the world.It has embraced the 'all day dining' model with a breakfast menu that transforms into snacks and evening dining making it an option for any mood or customer. It also has a fully licensed drinks list and al fresco seating to suit the late afternoon spritz while people watching as one of Melbourne's busiest strips passes you by.All of this inside one of Melbourne's best interior spaces, Abacus provides a casual dining experience to remember.The food is good and honest, it has broken out of the traditional mould for opening hours, the customer service is elevated, sustainability is deeply rooted in their ethos and it's a design-driven space that you want to be in. These business characteristics harmoniously work together and the success of them shows in the lines of people waiting for tables to enjoy a meal here."- future food

Colonel Tan's affordable menu combines traditional Thai cuisine with a cheeky American diner aesthetic. The name is a tribute to legendary Thai pop star Tan Punturaumporn. Years ago, Tan’s kitchen staff took to calling him the Colonel when they started serving a Five Spice Chicken that brought to mind a certain chicken-loving colonel from America’s Deep South. Located on Melbourne's trendy Chapel Street you can stop in for dinner, check out some art installations, exhibitions, live music or watch the venue turn into the infamous Revolver Upstairs nightclub!

Had a great time over a large family lunch. We had a wonderful spot for the adults and children, the menu has a great variety of food from nibbles to large meals plus options for the little ones. The staff were fantastic and very helpful when it was time to cut the birthday cake as well.

Another enjoyable evening at Two Doors. Our table of 8 were seated comfortably upstairs and enjoyed some tasty entrees and more than a couple drinks. My highlight was the new stout on tap - it was a hefty 9% but the taste was exquisite dark and bitter but sweet and fruity.
