The best coffee and cafés in Fitzroy

Bentwood features a vast brick, stucco facade and near floor-to-ceiling windows, occupying a large corner site on Fitzroy’s leafy Napier Street. We’ve combined rich tones of burgundy, brown and orange to create a warm but luxe atmosphere with soft leather banquettes, blonde-timber Bentwood chairs and exposed brick. Bentwood was once home to the Thonet furniture showroom – Little brass plates remain in the brickwork floor referring to different chair models, such as Le Corbusier and Bresso. Look up: you’ll see a tessellating pattern of red-steel squares filled with a subtle amber glow.
