Bistro 55

All things bright and beautiful, that's Bistro 55. Breathtakingly contemporary and stylish, this is the most wonderful spot to welcome the day or contemplate the coming afternoon.

Albany's most mesmerising destination, this bistro makes its mark with sky-high ceilings that are complemented further by an entire glass wall looking out to the world outside. As for the restaurant, it lets its dramatic outlook do all the talking, dressing the glossy floors with minimalist furniture and marble tables whilst punctuating the endless space by hanging stunning light features from the ceiling. In short, Bistro 55 might just take your breath away.

In comparison to its otherworldly surroundings, the breakfast and lunch menus are wonderfully down to Earth. For those early mornings, wake up with the full breakfast that's packed with smoked bacon, homemade hashbrowns and free-range eggs, some creamy mushrooms on toast or the decadent braised beef cheek on sourdough with heaps of parmesan. As for the sweet tooths amongst you, how about French toast with seasonal fruit, caramelised banana and creamy mascarpone?

These goodies are available all day, but if you'd prefer something else for lunch there's plenty to sink your teeth into. Keep it casual and delicious with their range of burgers that cater to every whim, fancy and dietary requirement. Alternatively, mix it up with a selection of small plates that roll out sticky bao buns and fried chicken. And should you be on a health kick, their range of spritely salads is perfect for busy afternoons that don't have a nap scheduled! Keep it lively with an Eighthirty organic coffee, a Mango-A-Go-Go smoothie or a refreshing glass of French Rose. At Bistro 55, anything is possible.
