Hitting up Melbourne recently put me in the way of a very cool little restaurant/bar which I thought other crowd members might enjoy. Sister Bella's is located very stealthily down two alleys (Drewery lane and then down Sniders) and you will find the door between all the bins. The adventure sure to be had whilst searching for this little pot of grunge gold will build a healthy appetite which is a good thing they have an amazing (and cheap) menu made especially for foodies and bar flies alike.
Upon entering the narrow hall which serves a both a den for the drinkers and a passage way to the staircase, immediately I knew I had found a new favourite of mine. Sister Bella’s presents a shambolic air of filthy indifference; paintings are strewn across the walls, complimenting the mismatched lighting scheme, while the tables are reminiscent of old school desks and are complete with graffiti. The atmosphere perfectly suits the cheap beer (a fiver for a Melbourne bitters) and cheap pizza menu (6 dollars, until 6pm where it goes up to 8.50).
I ordered the pumpkin pizza, which was big enough to share as a light meal between two, and I was pleased to see it laden with pumpkin slices and appropriate amounts of cheese! Unfortunately I wasn’t in Melbourne long enough to order anything else of the menu so I would be interested to know how it fares. Perhaps it is not all as satisfactory as there was only six other people there when I visited at around 1pm on a wednesday. Maybe it’s relatively untapped for food during the day? Either way I will definately be returning to Sister Bella's next time I am in lovely Melbourne.
