Melbourne locals will tell you that the Waiters Restaurant is 'an institution' and has been there 'for ever'. But when pressed on where it is, they often become confused.

No wonder. You leave the bright lights of Bourke Street, into a side lane, up a suspicious looking set of stairs, open the door - and there it is. Looking just like it did in the 1960's - laminex tabletops, hearty Italian food, hearty conversations, no menus, just a blackboard. And patrons in anything from black tie to construction work clothes.

It's good to know some things never change. One of Melbourne's Hidden Gems as featured in White Hat's free email newsletter of great things to do in Melbourne.
