Hugh Trumbull Cafe

Last Sunday with my wife and sister-in-law, I had lunch before the Carlton/Melbourne game. This restaurant provides a pub style meal. I had the parma, my wife the pie and sister-in-law the fish and chips. All were over $20. The parma came over a bed of chips at around $24, ten dollars dearer than the Aussie parma at my local pub.The glass of wines were each over ten dollars, which we think is an extremely high price for basic wines.The food arrived at the table before I was back from picking up the wine.

Where better to spend time when at the MCG for the Boxing Day test when the players are taking an early lunch due to rain?Yes there are queues to get in but the staff are pretty good at getting you in reasonably quickly and once you have ordered your lunch it comes quicker than the coffee. Meals in the $20-25 range but considering the needed fast turnaround it is more than acceptable and it is a good place to catch up with friends.

My husband, daughter and myself had dinner here before the game on Saturday night. The place inside was fairly full, outside was not too bad. We ordered fish and chips for my husband and my daughter and I had a child's parma each. The wait for our meal was extremely short. The fish and chips were very nice. The child's parma was an excellent size for us. The meal was hot and enjoyable. I fully recommend this placr for a meal.

Great place to grab a quick lunch. Food was nice without been too over priced and the coffee was good. Not too many people when we went but even if it was busy there is plenty of chairs inside and out.

Not many people realise this Cafe is open during the week until about 3pm so it's a great place on the edge of the CBD to have a coffee or lunch meeting.
