About For Heaven's Steaks

South-East lunch crowds head straight to this 2002 Clayton fixture for one order: Italian-style steak rolls built with truck-stop speed. Tender griddled beef and pork sausage patties get stacked onto fresh, crackly crusted rolls with roasted peppers, egg, and a cut of house chilli oil—dripping, savoury, and heavy enough to fuel a workday. No chips, no fryer sides, zero filler. The room runs on brisk counter service and nineties sports memorabilia, turning out a heavyweight steak sanga to tackle straight off the griddle before the bread softens.

  • Classic Clayton Steak Rolls: Fresh, crackly rolls stacked with tender grilled beef, Italian sausage patties, egg, roasted peppers, and chilli oil.
  • Streamlined Italian Menu: A tightly focused counter lineup sticking strictly to made-to-order steak and sausage rolls without chips or distractions.
  • Retro Diner Atmosphere: Operating since 2002 with 1990s sports memorabilia, unpretentious charm, and rapid counter service.

  • Nostalgic 1990s Sports Diner Setting

    Walls lined with retro 1990s basketball and soccer memorabilia give the spacious dining area a relaxed, vintage milk-bar charm.

    The cafe decor has a 90's sports memorabilia theme about it ( Michael Jordan appreciation) that might not appeal to everyone but I loved it!

Frequently Asked Questions

Do they serve chips or other sides with the sandwiches?

The shop focuses strictly on its signature steak and Italian sausage rolls. Traditional sides like hot chips or extensive cafe options are not offered on the menu.

Should you order the classic or the double roll?

The classic steak roll is hearty and substantial on its own, making it the best starting choice for first-time visitors. The double roll adds extra meat like Italian sausage or extra steak, making it a very large, heavy portion.

Is it worth adding chilli oil to your sandwich?

House chilli oil is a strongly recommended addition for an extra kick of flavour that complements the steak, sausage, and peppers.

Is it better to dine in or take your sandwich to go?

Sandwiches are assembled on crusty rolls with juicy meats and antipasto fillings that can soften the bread over time. It is best to dine in or eat your roll immediately after ordering.
