The Daily Espresso Bar
published on 14th December, 2011

Waking up every morning to the same routine did bad things for Bill Murray’s sanity (God only knows why – the man got to hang with Andie McDowell: superbabe). But perhaps he would be singing a different tune had he been able to indulge in some damn fine cawfee and perhaps a scene-stealing muffin before realising that things were getting predictable.

Local lad Laurence Greenfield decided to gut and pretty up the old Swanbourne newsagency into a hole-in-the-wall cafe serving some of the best coffee and baked goods going around (especially since Hot Rob ditched his old digs and became firmly ensconced at Little Willy’s). Mornings have never been so good since Laurence and his forearms at The Daily Espresso Bar (s)tamped themselves as the best kind of predictable.
