nice breakfast, good value, nice view if sitting outside .
Food & drinks - my friend and I ordered their big breakfast and classic eggs benny with chimichurri hollandaise, respectively. Both were not only nicely plated, but actually tasted delicious - unfortunately I forgot to take photos of both our food and the view. The chimichurri hollandaise made their classic eggs benny stand out amongst the typical classic benny you get. For drinks we had the extra hot mocha (I know, a 34 degree weather and I asked for extra hot) and iced chocolate. Though the mocha did come quite hot as requested,the taste was mediocre (hence the 4 star rating) but the iced chocolate was good - not too sweet!
Ambience - despite the hot Brissy weather, we decided to sit by their enticing terrace overlooking Brisbane city. They do have retractable awnings that you can ask to be pulled down when it gets too hot. Otherwise, you can also choose to sit inside their cosy rustic and air conditioned part of the cafe. Really relaxing ambience and the staff were friendly and hospitable - ensured we weren’t too hot outside.
I would definitely come, most especially for the view! I am yet to try their desserts and I am looking forward to it! 😀
Have not been back since the Farther’s day in 2015 so checked it out again.
Walked in around 7:00am on Sat. and I was the first customer of the day.
Selected to choose the sitting at the balcony so I could enjoy the view while I was having my brekkie.
Discussed with the young lady about what I would like for my savoury dish with only poached eggs and smoked salmon but no carbohydrates. This request really made the young waitress confused and she had to ask if the chef could tailor it for me. Eventually I have settled with my orders and my Campos coffee came to the table. Doubtless, it was a perfect morning coffee for me. Presentation, smoothness and strength were all good. Then the savoury dish came the next. When I looked at the presentation, my first feeling was odd. The chef was too lazy to make a nice presentation but just two poached eggs with smoked salmon not even any greens for decoration. It was a disappointed outcome!😅
