Established in 1954 by Italian migrants Leo and Vildo Pellegrini, Pellegrini's Espresso Bar is a Melbourne institution located at 66 Bourke Street. Renowned for its authentic Italian cuisine and old-world charm, the café offers a nostalgic atmosphere with red vinyl stools and checkerboard floors. Patrons can enjoy classic dishes like spaghetti bolognese, lasagne, and house-made gnocchi, complemented by the iconic watermelon granita. The café operates without a traditional menu, instead featuring a large hanging board that lists daily specials, inviting guests to experience a taste of Italy in the heart of Melbourne.
