Have not been back over one year so checked it out for brekkie in the morning. Upon arrival, there was already someone placing orders so I followed the queue. It did not take a long time to have my coffee and the croissant with ham & cheese. After the friendly owner handed over my orders to me, the first thing attracted my attention was the croissant was served in a recycling container instead of paper bag like the other competitors. It gained a very good appreciation from me because it reflects the passion from the cafe. In addition, they served the croissant hot enough without toasted. I love it!
Honestly, I could not find any flaw here so full mark should be deserved.πππ

Lift Bakery Cafe is a little gem on Gladstone Road. Only a couple tables inside and a few more on the footpath, but the coffee and food was great and the prices are very reasonable.
Enjoyed an exceptionally generous Iced Latte with an extra shot and a wonderful Raspberry and Coconut Muffin for under $9.
Great coffee - Rouge...strong, but not bitter - 4.
Great muffin - loaded with berries and very moist - 4.
Look forward to returning to explore more of their menu.
The best!!! Delicious food and friendly people. Only place for us to have coffee and brekky on the weekend. My partner has dietary requirements and they are always make an effort to accommodate our order and tastes incredible.
Long black thick and muddy as the Brisbane river on a dark night. Complex sensuous and sinuous. Sitting on footpath watching life passing by. Breakfast a melange of eggs avocado dukkah. Very pleasant. Easy parking. Top notch
Just had an amazing coffee (espresso double shot) and a mini walnut brownie. The decorations friendliness and quality goods on offer make this the best cafe I've been to so far in Brisbane. It closes at 3 so don't come after work. I'm sad today is my last day here I would like to try more on offer here. Plenty of space and it also holds exhibitions.
A real local gem. Lift offers a great range of delicious breakfast items at an affordable price. coffee is very good too. staff are really friendly and accommodating. recent expansion into next door has provided more seating options and it's air conditioned π
A little Lift. Great coffee and cakes, friendly staff and strangely awesome spot to sit out front and watch traffic and city view
Great little Cafe. We stop by to pick up dairy free cakes or sweet balls every so often and the other day stopped in to have some coffees. My chai latte was very good and we loved the dairy free raw lemon curd cheesecake. And they brought water to our table without us having to ask. Finally, some good service in Brisbane! Thanks guys, we'll be back.
Excellent brekky here, so glad we visited Lift! Very friendly service and yummy extensive cooked breakfast menu (12 or so options) and tasty coffee. Delicious special menu as well. Will definitely be returning!

I made an account just to review this place! I loved it! And I will return.
I spent one week in Brisbane, and unfortunately only found this place on my last day. Everywhere else I ate in Brisbane had poor service and bland, subpar food. Not this place! Service was excellent, the waitress offered me water and tea. She told me about the daily specials and even checked back a few times to make sure she had my order right. It was a very nice change from the surly attitude I had received from wait staff else where in the city.
I ordered a waffle with berries and a side of scrambled eggs. The waffle was tasty and satisfying, light but flavorful. The eggs were excellent as well. Everything was made fresh in house. I really appreciated the use of simple, good ingredients to make a delicious meal.
They also have a lovely selection of desserts that you can take away. They are all made in house and look like they've been made with care.
I'm not a coffee drinker, but I overheard other patrons talking about how lovely their lattes were.
What a find!. Was heading down vulture street looking for a place for a lazy sunday breakfast when we looked across the street to see lift cafe. There were a few ppl out front so we decided to give it a go.
Big thing for me is getting water on the table without asking - the waitress was friendly and immediately placed water on the table and took our coffee order. Coffee was out in a few minutes and was amazing. The food came out about 10 minutes after we ordered and WOW what value. $12 for an amazing bacon and eggs on toast with relish and organic local bread.
Staff were great, food and coffee reasonable priced, i'll definitely be back.
Love it!. I've been to Lift the last two weeks for my weekend brunch and going back again today. It's fantastic. Firstly the place has great food (finally a menu that isn't trying to obscure its food in pretentiousness!) and they make a good cup of coffee. For me the litmus test is eggs on toast with avocado, and they pass with flying colours. Secondly it is well priced. It shouldn't cost you $35 to get a delicious brunch and coffee, and at Lift it doesn't. I usually only need about $21 for a large coffee and whatever I want on the menu.
But honestly I really enjoy the service. The wait staff are great (one recommended us mushrooms when they ran out of avocado... exquisite!) and they have been very friendly to me every time I come. I also like the cute decor inside and the tables out the front are rarely taken. Beats the wanky cafes in nearby West End any day.
Lift Bakery has amazing food, especially the home made pies and baked goods created by the lovely owner John. The coffee is great and there are heaps of flavors to choose from for milkshakes and soda. The staff are super friendly and attentive and the prices are excellent :) love going to Lift!
I love lift. Happy and friendly vibe with the loveliest owner, Jonathan. Food is always great- definitely need to try the pies! And coffee is good too.
Diana. What a great little bakery cafe this is.The coffee is Rouge & perfectly brewed & presented. Full bodied & smooth just as I like it. I complimented it with some sublime fruit toast which bursted with huge chunks of delicious fruits. Oh & the rest of the bakery items here are delish too!
We got some takeaways of the dessert tarts from this cafe and they were very delicately presented and also tasted amazing! Definitely βLIFTβed the dessert standard to a new level! They also offer good varieties and we are glad that we found this hidden gem in the area which we can go often. Canβt wait to go again next time to try some more of their other food and desserts! : )
What a beautiful breakfast to start the day. Brioche with bacon, mushroom spinach, poached eggs with housemade hollandaise. and House made brioche french toast with Nutella and fresh strawberries. Definitely will be coming back to try other dishes on the menu. Highly recommended πππ
Turned up with a pretty huge group, and they service was still impeccable. What they were able to accommodate with their team of 3 was amazing. The food came out quickly and was delicious. Loved the fact they brought out the kids food first, very smart.
Would definitely come back again.
literally just spontaneously stopped here this morning and now will ensure i come back. best dirty chai iβve ever had and the waitress was so so lovely. Very very good price and lovely baked goods in the cabinet!

This is such a Fantastic place. The decorations are amazing and very unique, with a vintage style.
The food is awesome. They have a great variety of meals from scrambled eggs with toast to chilli meat with beans and vegetarian options. The sweet treats are their specialty. They also make wonderful cakes for special events.
By the way, the staff is so nice and friendly. Coffee is great, although it changes depending on how is making it.
The owners are so friendly. It has been my favourite place for almost 5 years and counting.
What a perfect coffee made for me , and with such a friendly barista . The raspberry tart that I only intended to eat half of , was just too delicious to not eat it all . The meals looked lovely so will be back to try .
Food and coffee always top notch. Cool funky cafe. Great selection of bakery treats for purchase to.
