Down a cobbled lane, tucked away between the law courts and office complexes surrounding Collins Street, Hydra is the ideal setting for a business breakfast or corporate lunch. It has a clean canteen feel with buffet-style sandwich selections as well as daily special menu items and an impressive wine cabinet. Seating often turns communal during the hectic lunch hour but service is prompt and polite. Renowned in the CBD for luscious toasted fruit bread, grilled focaccias, gourmet baguettes and hot coffee, Hydra also offers a classic big breakfast fry-up as well as organic gluten-free muesli and fresh juices for the more health-conscious.
