Pellegrini's Espresso Bar

Sea food marinara was divine, and I followed my host's advise to eat the Italian way, that is, without cheese. It was, again, divine. I didn't even mind to have pasta sauce all over my top. I had fun. Espresso was strong and my eyes are wide open now. I am fully charged. Please be aware that the space is tight, and you might have to look at yourself while eating. Don't come here with a big bag or shopping bags. Use one of those fanny pack around your waist, and you're good to go.

I had the Spaghetti Napoli (there’s no menu so been told that or with pesto is the only vegetarian option) - was very average/ below average. I expected it to be cheaper $40 for two very basic pastas. No prices a bit confusing

Almost excellent latte. Nice and strong, Just a fraction too hot.

Great food with exemplary service as usual... wonderful memories of old uni days.Keep up the great tradition. 👍

As much a part of Melbourne as the trams that patrol out streets. Amazing food, superb coffee and lovely people. Rest In Peace Sisto

As a student who goes to the city as a school trip my group and i were delighted with how kind, friendly and comforting the place was, food was tad bit overpriced and i didnt afford buying food yet the owner said "i cannot let you leave without trying the gratitini" he passed out a free gratini drink to all of us and it tasted spectacular. Amazing place would reccomend

After 30 years away from Melbourne it was such a joy that Pellegrinis was totally unchanged, a Melbourne icon

Iconic Melbourne restaurant. Love the coffee here. Special place to visit 💖

Ordered a soy cappuccino, was brought a latte. Asked the waiter for a cappuccino, was told its an "Italian cappuccino". All this while the lady at the next table has a cappuccino. It was a nice latte, but not what i ordered.

Fantastic, great place to have a meal and a chat with friends.
