Mietta's Review
Backpackers and travellers of all ages find this Internet cafe a comfortable way to contact the world they have left. Couches, funky standard lamps, laid back staff, chess and backgammon to fill in a few lonely hours. And drinkers in the city enjoy the vibe after work.
Other published opinions
Herald Sun, Hit, 3/2/2000 Rachel Hodder. "If there is one thing owners of the new city bar want, it's for people to feel relaxed when they go there. forget about pretension, leave you air kisses at home, e:fiftyfive, is a laid back venue perfect for catching up with friends over a few quiet drinks. chess and backgammon are on offer and there are lots of couches to lounge on. It has becaome popular with backpackers-there is internet service available during the day, and after work drinkers. Owners Luke and brendan decided to start the bar after a stint travelling overseas. 'We've both been in hospitality industry for years, when we came back, we searched for about 12 months for a property' Brogan says.'We wanted a dramatic entrance but a laid back atosphere so people could just hang out and not feel they had to spend heaps of money."
