History
Banff has been part of St Kilda's famous Fitzroy Street for decades. What is now a trendy apartment building, 145 Fitzroy Street was used as a barracks by
American soldiers in World War II, and what is now the Banff restaurant was used to cook their meals.
The restaurant has changed in name and style many times over the years. At one stage in the 1980's, its rumoured Madonna visited and was so impressed with the food, she coaxed the chef into leaving - joining her entourage to cook on demand!
It has been in its current successful state for two years, and is a very popular choice for breakfast, lunch and dinner for its great value and welcoming, homely atmosphere.
