A fine establishment!
It's all true! Yes, the crepes are excellent, if not a little addictive (Mel K - the first step is to admit you have a problem!) The drinks are fantastic, including a comprehensive cocktail menu at prices that actually leave a little money left in your own pocket. And, the vibe is fun, respectful and inviting. Heck, they even have an 8-point charter painted on their wall (just near the gaffer-tape nipple lady) to show they intend to keep their integrity in this shallow city.
Pocket rocks it
Periodically there is a burst of incoherent noise from the South claiming Melbourne is a superior city to Sydney. The list of alleged reasons typically includes unconvincing vagueries such as "European feel", "Sports capital [unless you like rugby or league]" and "the seasons [i.e. t's cold and dark half the year]". The one reason that has always resonated, though, is the small, cool bars that characterise the Mexican capital. Until now. Cos we've got Pocket. Pocket rocks it for at least 3 reasons:
(1) It's cool, but welcoming. This automatically makes me feel cool too. Which I'm not.
(2) The table service is very good, including at busy periods. This is so unexpected I feel like proposing to the waitress. And let me tell you, one could do a lot worse.
(3) They are open at all hours, including that dead period in the 3-5pm zone where Sydney eateries of all kinds resemble the Marie Celeste.
I could throw in the availability of tasty crepes, huge bowls of delicious French fries and Cooper's Pale Ale in the bottle, but that would be 4 reasons. Just go there.
LOVE IT
one of my favourite places for lunch! love it !!
Addictive crepes & fries + good drinks
I've become totally addicted to the crepes at Pocket, and try to come here whenever I can - whether for afternoon coffee or an evening drink. Try the nutella & banana - yum... The drinks are good, and reasonably priced. Weekend evenings can get really busy, so just be aware you might have to wait to get in - but it's never that long, and the queue has a fair one-in one-out policy.
