Blue Vein Cafe

@ 3/621-622 King Street

**Sadly Missed. Replaced by Molly Coddle's.

Situated on a street corner in the south end of King Street is this polished looking cafe. It can feel like a tight fit with its heavy tables, wooden chairs and dark decor but once you settle in and take in the atmosphere which includes a miniature garden to the side and a garage equipped with a huge pair of firey red lips that all disappears.

The service is lovely and despite the lack of staff on the day I visited (let it be noted it was a public holiday) the waitress was very attentive and helpful. Not only does Blue Vein specialise in your typical hot/cold beverage, it also serves woodfire pizzas. The selection here is more than plenty and although we only ordered a small, the two of us were stuffed by the time we swallowed the last vestiages of it. Toppings on these pizzas is quite flexible, when asked if we could have the sour cream only on half the waitress prompty suggested placing this in a separate pot so we could spread it however we pleased on the meal.
