In this quaint narrow lane called Chancery Lane you will find El Gordo. Spanish influence and the food was different and delicious. Everything was great with the exception of the male waiter who was totally "full on", but I am glad I persevered.

This little cafe is set in an alleyway grandly named Chancery Lane just off Pall Mall in the centre of Bendigo CBD. There are several cafes in the Lane but we chose this one and thoroughly enjoyed the lunch. There's not much room but it...More

Down a laneway. Quite squeezy but with loads of atmosphere. Had a fun chat with a 'waiter'. He was entertaining and made lunch more fun. The food was great.

Fantastic little restaurant in a funky alleyway. Great location, excellent friendly service and sensational food

Very good coffee with flourless orange cake and passion fruit donoughts . Staff were very efficient and friendly.

One of the best coffee’s in town, great toasted melts, burgers and the daily soup specials are great.

Went here for brekky down Chancery Lane near Dispensary Bar. Great coffee (nice depth of flavour and good strength) and ordered jamon serrano and poached eggs. Beautiful jamon and giant crunchy toast with excellent egg. Friendly staff, great vibe. Loved it!

We grabbed an excellent take away coffee here and decided to return for lunch! Our meals were all good. A small misunderstanding in our order was rectified within a couple of minutes without fuss. The food was lovely and coffee excellent!
