Overlooking Spring Street at Melbourne’s iconic Princess Theatre the Federici Bistro serves a delicious menu, an impressive wine list and great coffee. The bistro has been recently refurbished but maintains pieces reminiscent of its eventful history. Outdoor seating is available.

Federici Bistro is open throughout the day, Monday to Friday, whether it be for a coffee, light snack, breakfast or lunch. For breakfast try our popular Persian Pikelets or one of best Breakfast Rolls in Melbourne. For lunch choose from our extensive menu, our daily specials or from our Mezze Menu designed to share.

Ideally located in the bustling Melbourne Theatre District, the Federici Bistro also offers pre-theatre dining for any shows at the Princess Theatre.
