RTB (Roastie Toastie Bros) in South Melbourne is a cafe specialising in toasted sandwiches, poke bowls, breakfast and pizza. It also sells wine and cocktails and is on the corner of Palmerston Crescent and Sandilands Street in South Melbourne. It’s very close to my office and I’ve been there a few times with colleagues to eat and have also picked up a takeaway from there as well.
This is a great place for people living or working nearby to grab a drink or a meal, and we really should head there for a beer after work one day.
RTB Swiss Mistress – Roast Beef Sourdough Sandwich
The first time I ordered for pickup, I had the Swiss Mistress and I ordered it for pickup on UberEats, I recall it was ready very quickly.
This was definitely more generous with the fillings than some similar places nearby.
Beer Battered Chips
Here I had the beer-battered chips with oregano, salt and parmesan cheese and a Smokey BBQ sauce on the side. It looks like my colleague Peter has the RTB Brekkie with bacon. The shadows to the left suggest we may have also had a sneaky beer.
My most recent visit was with my team on a morning when the elevators were broken and we couldn’t access our floor (fire escapes were locked from the stairwell) so we went there for coffee and food whilst we waited to gain access.
Chickie Pop Bites & Coffee
Since I was just buying food to kill the time, I ordered the Chickie Pop Bites and Coffee. I was slightly surprised they had this available at breakfast time. I’m not a big breakfast food eater, so wanted something more lunch-like. These were nice and so was the coffee!
More Sourdough Sandwiches
My colleagues Jan and Dhara each had The Pine Apple Express and the Cheese Me Up which both looked great.
Whilst we were there I took a few photos of the wine and cocktail bar areas.
