About The Boot Factory

Originally the building for well-behaved prisoners to make shoes and boots for prison guards, The Boot Factory is now a popular Coburg venue to catch a delectable bite to eat on Pentridge Boulevard. Since being converted, the café has breathed new life into the history of Pentridge Prison (circa 1850s), by inviting locals and visitors from afar to unwind in a series of four dining spaces, each with the charming characteristics that still remain. As much as possible is made from scratch using local produce and time-honoured traditions, seeing guests satisfying hunger with a plate of sesame-seared tuna poké, avocado, sushi rice, charred pineapple, cucumber, seaweed salad and furikake; or wrap your hands around a Wagyu burger with bacon, relish, pickles, Swiss cheese, aioli and oak lettuce.

Great location, really comfortable atmosphere
This is in a great spot in the growing Pentridge precinct. It has a great atmosphere and the staff are lovely.
Food is healthy but also have some of the usual favourites for everyone. Great selection and service was excellent.
