Will come back..Michael Hunter2022-03-11Great coffeeSherry Mackay2022-02-24Hubby and I met up with a friend here for a coffee break this week. It has recently changed owners and names (prev. Mistress of Spice), so we came to check it out. There are a few tables outside, so we bagged a corner one. Donning masks and showing our double vaxx screens, we ordered coffees, banana bread and a smashed avo on toast with dukkah. We had one flat white, one strawberry milkshake and one cappuccino – all good, nothing super exceptional but fine. My smashed avo was fabulous – light and airy, the fetta mixed in with the avo giving a delightfully tasty spread over my toast. The dukkah was spicy and full of flavour, and not too overpowering – dealt with a light hand. It was very filling, so I took the other piece home, which I enjoyed later on for arvo tea. This café is kid-friendly, dog-friendly, and also has lots of interesting gifts and take-home readymade dinners. A useful and tasty addition to the neighbourhood.Kerry Jensen2022-02-16Picked up coffee for my daughterDaniel Tanner2022-01-14The staff are friendly and fun. Shop front is packed with gifts and trinkets which are interesting to look through while waiting for a takeaway. Coffee seem around average for Brisbane. It seems like milk ratios are often off and coffees are slightly too milky.Bob ahmed2021-12-24Andy2021-10-05Great friendly service and good coffee some of the best in the area. The shop sells a lot of odd bits and stuff, it was a bit confused as to what this store is, coffee shop, a spice store not really sure but good coffee
