Finally a good coffee. It's been a week of bad to average coffee's and thank god the guys at Felix know how to make a good coffee. Requested extra hot and yes l got extra hot. Got a medium and cup is smaller but at least the coffee tasted like coffee. I found the cafe to be pretty cool too. Loved the ambience and l spotted sriracha scramble on their menu. Will be back for that.
I’d been to Felix once previously and didn’t think the food was particularly flavourful - so this time, I ordered what I considered to be the most flavourful dish on the menu “sriracha scrambled eggs”.
I really enjoyed them, the eggs were cooked well. They were still soft and had plenty of the sriracha over them. It also had some sort of pickled/slaw component and that was super yummy. The lime yoghurt sauce really helped to nicely break up the flavour of the eggs and the cashews on top provided for good crunch.
This cafe is also a nice meeting place, it is very airy and open. You will often find people brunching with friends or working on their computer alone at the bar stool area.
Enjoy😊
I’ve got so much good feelings for Felix for goodness!
I ordered the gnocchi which surpassed my expectations and delivered on the healthy comfort food option! Those fluffy potato pillows were dreamy. We got seated straight away, had great service and the atmosphere was fresh and visually appealing.

ordered the gluten free arepa (not vegan). never had an arepa before but it reminded me of a hash brown, only with the potato swapped for their cornmeal. wasn’t too oily so i was glad for that and it provided a nice texture. kinda expected 2 arepas considering the price but oh well. there were 2 poached eggs but one wasn’t runny when i cut into it :( the avocado wasn’t soft and easy to cut into/spread, so i assume it wasn’t at its perfect ripeness. (but i’ll also never say no to avocado lol) altogether everything tasted kind of like nachos, but less crunchy. the chilli chimmichuri was the best part, adding a lovely spicy (mild at most tho) flavour to everything when you had all the elements together.
there wasn’t any element that i disliked so altogether it was a decent dish. although i do find it slightly pricy at $19.5, it is brunch in the city so it’s also what i would expect. service was lovely and speedy and i would be happy to come here again to try some other dishes (hopefully more gluten free options in the future)
Finally came back to this laneway cafe, I had to after I saw this new addition to the menu.
Beautiful interior, great staff, and this was delicious.
I loved the texture of the hotcake and how it reminded me of pumpkin pie, in flavor and texture. And the coffee hit the spot just right :)
Beautifully made coffee with an abundance of choices available on the menu.
Service is generally quite fair and ambience within is nice. A let down is the laneway noise and can often make it difficult to hear any conversation you are trying to have with someone.
Been to Felix a few times and revisited today after not being into the city in a while.
Short Review - I love it!!!
It’s a little bit unique and not your normal ‘same same, but different’ cafe menu that you normally see. Today I had basically a tofu burger. It clearly sells itself better than that on the menu and with slaw, Kim chi, cucumber, it’s a healthy burger alternative that doesn’t leave you requiring a nanna nap in the afternoon.
Great coffee and great food down a CBD Lane way... am I in Melbourne? Nope.
Get around this gem of a place brisbane!!
such a quaint café! came for brunch and the food is so delicious and healthy. the place is tucked away and has a very relaxed feel with music playing in the background. staff are very friendly. would definitely come again. even the bathroom is cute!
Really nice atmosphere and the staff is lovely. The food is amazing especially the bacon and eggs. Well proportioned and delicious. Multiple choices to choose from via beverages and food. However more space to the cafe would be nice.
Went there for brekky once a while back. I think i ordered the wrong thing, the soldiers. they're not that great. Will have to come back for another try i reckon. The place has a nice atmosphere and secluded on the lane.
Well, A taste of Melbourne in Brisbane. I like it. The food is different, fancy and tasty, oh and healthy as well. It’s been a while since I’ve traveled to Brisbane and was not expecting to find this in Brisbane. Highly recommended if you’d like non-traditional cafe food. I was jealous when my colleague ordered the big breakfast!!!
Very busy!! Be quick to get in and grab a table! Only one slice of avo for $17, and the French Toast was $24 in the pics, it was nice atmosphere. Little on the pricey side for what you get, but was very delicious. Waiters were lovely!
Arrived at 12.30 pm for brunch on a Tuesday and the cafe was bustling with people. It took me a while to find it as it was located on the side of a narrow driveway which can be overlooked quite easily. Really love the ambiance in this cafe; great natural lighting and lovely interior.
Tried the Hash Brown, Salt + Pepper Octopus, Single Origin Batch Brew, and Iced Latte w Soy. The food overall was pretty good, the coffee was amazing! My friend enjoyed the hash brown. For the Salt + Pepper Octopus, I felt like it was a bit overpriced for the amount of octopus served. The octopus tentacles that seem to be covered in the Salt + Pepper seasoning were not as tasty and it made the tentacles taste fake as it was kind of overcooked... I do find the ingredients used for the food healthy and overall pleasant to eat.
Might not come back for the food next time but happy to try their pastries as there were some on display that look really good! Will come back to have coffee again!
Very nice coffee hidden in the city. Very quiet area. The food was delicious with excellent asian flavours and the smoothies were really good. The service was super quick and efficient.
The organisation is not really efficient we had to wait 40 minutes to get a table while we have been told 10-15minutes. Tables remained empty while patrons are waiting downstairs.
This has to be one of the best places I have been to for breakfast in Brisbane, and I do not regret waiting in line to get in. The coffee has this lovely flavour that came through the oat milk and the aftertaste was beautiful. The breakfast I ordered was just the perfect serve, enought to fill you in and it was more on the healthier side of things. It was a great take on big breakfast but a more healthier alternative. The vibe of the joint is so relaxing and the staff are so friendly, you feel welcomed from the first time you step in until you leave.
The coffee, cake, and meals here are all lovingly made on-site, have lots of flavour and inspiration, and are beautifully presented. It's a good spot to sit in and have breakfast or brunch while overlooking Burnett Lane, or to grab some takeaway.
Ordered the tofu katsu, it was surprisingly a big piece of tofu that's been fried with pickled slaw to cut out the greasiness of the deep fried tofu. Flavours were well balanced and quite delicious. Customer service is really friendly, food comes out quickly, nice atmosphere inside. A little pricey but to be expected in the CBD. Overall, worth trying.
A great sport for breakfast / brunch - our food was delicious and the portion size was awesome. We also got a Chai latè and berry frappé (forgot to take photos), both were good. The price crept up a little, but we felt the food we got was worth it. The space inside is very cosy, but makes for a lively vibe when it’s busy. Overall, worth a visit!
