Bimbo Deluxe

Fodor's Review:

This eclectic bar, with deep comfy sofas and the feel of a local hangout, has the cheapest and possibly the most delicious pizzas in town. On weekdays between noon and 4 PM you can order a dinner-plate-size pizza (from 19 choices) for a mere A$4. If you miss the special, fear not: the same great pizzas are only A$6-A$8 at other times. Try the Agnello (tomato, mozzarella, spiced lamb, arugula, pine nuts, and sultanas). If you're hankering for a sugar rush, there are also sweet pizzas such as chocolate with mascarpone. A range of chilled infused vodkas -- including watermelon and lychee -- are available, and the bar's signature "blonde bimbo" beer is a popular choice. The space is decorated with weird and wonderful bric-a-brac, including Kewpie dolls. A second branch with the title of Lucky Coq opened in the suburb of Windsor, which borders Prahran.
