Where do we begin!

Maybe we could start with our names?! Jesse & Hayley! We’re off to a flying start!

In 2013 Jesse transformed a nostalgic lolly shop on Mitchell Street, and ‘Get Naked Espresso Bar’ was born. For the past 9 years he has delivered consistent, high quality and delicious coffees which our regulars would say are the best in town. He is deeply passionate about exceptional customer service and making his customers feel like they are part of our family every time they visit.

Fast forward to 2021 and after adding another small person to our family, taking on a huge renovation on our home, and managing the ever changing hospitality covid climate, we thought why not take on a new challenge! When this opportunity was presented to us we couldn’t resist and were so excited to expand our offering from the coffee shop, into a place where not only could you enjoy amazing coffee, but an awesome brunch!

The things we loved the most about the former ‘Ex lion tamer’ was the amazing culture that had been built, with consistent regulars who supported the business for 4 years since conception. We loved the team! Our team are incredible and backed us 100%. We loved the overall feeling in the space, and we hope that our customers can feel it also, and finally we loved that this would give us the opportunity to expand our existing business and challenge us in new ways.

The name ‘Nude food breakfast bar’ came about after months and months of notes on our phones, phone calls to each other saying ‘I’ve got it!!!’, many family members suggestions and lots of ‘back to the drawing board’. Would you believe we nearly chose ‘Ground control’?! I think we finally found a winner in Nude food! We think it ties in nicely to ‘Get naked espresso bar’ and everyone loves the word ‘Nude’ right?!

We do hope you’ll visit us when choosing your next brekkie or lunch spot in Bendigo. We believe we have something really unique to offer and our consistency, passion, quality and good old fashioned customer service are what bring our customers back time and time again.

We can’t wait to see you!
