Bare Bones Society is always reliable for a good coffee. We drop in for a quickie yesterday. Warmly greeted by the familiar Barista, I ask for a large Cafe Latte. My coffee is ready in minutes. Intense and full flavoured, this is a great coffee. Thank you guys!
Staff were lovely and friendly, we were quickly seated and our coffee ordered taken quickly.
Bare bone society offers an all day breakfast menu, a lunch menu as well as a small menu for the 'little ones'. Wide variety of choices, and the price range was slightly higher, however, portion size was large enough for the price!
Had a great meal here, the chips were so crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. The burger was also very yummy.
Their menu has a lot of variety and the cafe cabinet looked really good as well; makes you want to try everything! I had a cold pressed black coffee and it was quite nice also. Good place to have a hearty breakfast and lunch.
Staff were also very friendly to us!
We went there thrice, the quality of the food, coffee and a very good service. Very best recommended for breakfast in our area. We got takeaway from this place and we enjoyed alot.
Despite always being busy, the staff are polite unflustered and service is quick. Beautiful food and amazing coffee. Food is reliably perfect.
Every time I come I enjoy it. Coffee is great and the food choices are so above the ordinary it’s not funny. The skill set and training of Kym Machin is so obvious. Extremely lucky to have Kym and Jade in the Centenary Suburbs. 5 stars- every time.
Came here on Saturday morning and it was packed. However, the service was quite quick, thanks to the agile waiters. Located in the Jindalee Homemaker, the restaurant was semi-outdoor.
Ordered C.A.B.L.A.T burger. The portion was big, it was enough to feed two people. The burger itself stacked quite high and very appealing. The fries was very tasty and well-cooked. Too bad that I could not finish it as I was too full.
The coffee was great as well. Perfectly made, not bitter or burnt. It was very easy to drink.
Will come back here again next time and try out other breakfast menus :).
Great food and service. Had the breakfast burger. Struggled to get thru it. Good portion and tasted great. Staff were friendly and attentive
Hard to fault this cafe, Zomato led us here. Good service, great coffee and amazing food. The flathead tail tacos were fantastic, all fresh tasty ingredients. Deserves a more quaint location rather than the shopping plaza area. Some of the best quality/value in Brisbane.
Unexpectedly one of the yummiest Avos on toast I have had. Absolutely delicious. Staff were friendly and service was quick. My only criticism is the location isn't the best being in the middle of a car park and the air-conditioning wasn't handling the hot day, but otherwise a great place to visit
Been here multiple times and have never failed to be impressed. Great food, great atmosphere, great staff, and really decent portion sizes.
Bare bones society is my go-to cafe whenever i have brunch dates with my friends
Lovely staff, cute layout, good food and drinks, good for the pricing. Very laid back and easy going, definitely a good chill environment. Love eating here.
If you're shopping and need refueling - this is the place for you. A great menu with something for everyone and great coffee. We didn't eat but the food coming out looked amazing.
This place is well worth visiting for breakfast, lunch or dinner. I've been impressed with the food every time I've been and the coffee (Toby's Estate) is always well made.
The Friday night Italian themed dinner was quite good. I had 3 courses and was happy with every course. We had a large table of friends out on the deck area and the ambience was nice - quiet enough to hear people talk at the other end of the table, warm due to the heaters and nice lighting.
Great place good food good service, was was busying. We ordered chicken burger and cheese burger. Both were nice and cooked well- cheese burger did have a middle eastern taste to it which I think was the tomato relish.
I came here for brunch this morning with my family. It was quite a chilled place and decent level of service. The prices are slightly more expensive than other cafes but the portions are large for the burgers so you'd be better off sharing a burger. I ordered the crumbed pumpkin flowers stuffed which was yummy. I didn't like the stems though. All in all a good experience and all the meals came out at the same time.
Good quality suburban cafe with friendly and attentive service, plenty of space, and decent good value food. Would highly recommend dropping in if you happen to be around the neighbourhood. It's located in a shopping plaza which makes parking easy. Highly recommend for families with young children.

This place packs out, and I can see why. We were directed to our table by a youngster trying his hardest in the hospitality game, he looked after us the whole time and had plenty of experienced hands close by to help him - you did well son, shake off the nerves you have because they shone through but thank you and good luck.
Toby estate coffee was on offer and I quite like this blend, considering it was a packed house I was really suprised to see our coffee's and mains come out as quick as they did. The coffee didn't blow me away but it was good, lacked strength. Ordered the "bit of everything" as per the menu states, whilst awaiting I admired the staff doing their upmost for the customers and constantly checking in and clearing tables, we to experienced this great service. I also noticed the presentation of the meals coming from the kitchen, they looked fantastic! This was also the same when our meals arrived, great presentation. Was very hard to choose a stand out in this meal but if I was to choose anything it would be the pan roasted cherry tomatoes and the bacon, the cherry tomatoes were perfectly cooked and weren't to soggy and were firm in places that made them explode in your mouth when you bit into it. The bacon was just devine, perfectly crisped and just a joy to eat.
Bare Bones is a little on the pricey side but a really good sized menu, this cute little cafe shares the block with a furniture store so once your done with your meal you can go m for a browse. Location is great, smack bang in the middle of a shopping complex.

Saturday brekky date!
I haven't been to Jindalee (atleast not this part) in a little while and clearly a lot has happened there since! Established in 2013, Bare Bones Society greets you from pretty much right in the middle of the carpark. From the outside, it looks like you are literally walking into someone's house. Once inside, that's exactly how it feels - like you have just stepped into someone's massive dining room. Decor and styling, I would describe as very simplistic with a mother's touch. Fresh flowers adorn the tables with only tea/coffee condiments on the table - zero clutter. The staff were warm and friendly - shared a couple of laughs with us during our date which provided a really nice personal touch.
To drink we ordered our usual coffees, mocha (with extra chocolate) and extra strong flat white (otherwise known as MB 's liquid tar). I'm a little strange and can't have a hot drink without a cold one, so I ordered the Don't Kiss Me juice (cold and flu buster). To eat - I ordered the 5 spice crispy pork belly salad with green papaya, pineapple and Asian slaw. Mr MB settled for the A little bit of everything a.k.a The Big Brekky.
Bare Bones Society use the Toby Estate coffee blend which has to be one of my favourites. It is bold and lingering without tasting bitter and the chocolate slices through nicely blending altogether very well. The juice was freaken amazing - carrots, lemon, garlic, ginger - to name a few. It was sweet, it was strong - I could drink it by the bucket load!
My food was lovely. It was beautifully presented however, my pork belly was served as two long slices underneath the salad. I would have preferred that the pork belly be served on top so I could taste it on its own and then as part of the salad. The pineapple was nice and sweet and combined with the tangy green papaya, it was a great match. The salad definitely needed a sweet element because the papaya on its own, was incredibly tart. As a whole, the salad had excellent texture, a great combination of flavours and the asian herbs provided a gorgeous fresh hit. The other half seemed to thoroughly enjoy his brekky but you'll need to read his review for his opinion.
Overall, the food was great, our coffees and juice - delicious, staff and location were great. Depending on what you order, you may pay a little more than the average cost for brekky (we did today) but it is worth it.
Thank you Bare Bones Society!
This is one of my favourite places to go for Breakfast. The coffee is always awesome because they do tobys coffee beans, which is one of my favourites, i like to try the different single origin blends. Food is always great, sometimes i have breakfast, and sometimes i have lunch. Staff are friendly, parking is easy, and my experience here is always great! p.s love the peanut butter protein balls.
Have only been here for breakfast. But solid hardy meals and lots of choice for people that prefer a healthy food option. Coffee is pretty great. It is usually full of fitness people whenever I am there.
Great food great service every time I've been. It's a shame in this dead of summer they either don't have or aren't using their air con. It's hot but tolerable with the fans. Their burgers are amazing. Pictured is the CABLAT and their fries are even better. Their salads I'm less a fan of. I don't usually like fusion Asian salads though so it might just be me. The one pictured here is pretty much herb as the greenery. Which is very fragrant but just not my cup of tea.
Yum! This place was delicious despite the location, the pork belly salad was full of flavour and I just want more.. serving sizes are generous and the staff inviting.. will definitely go back.
Great little place for brunch on a Sunday. The coffee was delicious and the powerhouse smoothly was very refreshing. All the food looked delicious and I struggled to pick between 2 or 3 outstanding options (breakfast burger 2.0 - didn't regret it). Took a little while for the meals to come out but staff were attentive and it was well worth the wait!
Corn and chive fritters for me and french toast for the wife.
Loved the fritters. Great combination of flavours from the fritter, bacon (everything tastes better with bacon), haloumi, smashed avo, creme fraiche and tomato relish.
Had a taste of the french toast as well. A very light brioche, something approaching a dense sponge cake texture. Maple syrup was subtle, not too sweet. The ice cream was pushing the sweetness a little high but the bacon brings it back down. Ah, bacon saves the day again.
And Toby's Estate coffee on the side was a good accompaniment to the brekky.
Came here before it got super busy and enjoyed every moment of our brunch. We started off with a vanilla milkshake and chai latte, enjoyed both drinks. For the food, we ordered the french toast, corn fritter and cheesy fries. Everything tasted so good but the fries werent as crunchy as we thought it would be. Overall would come back again :)
The girls who served us were very helpful. The food was surprisingly good considering the 'boutique cafe' saturation in the area. I must say a little on the pricey side but definitely enjoyable. We will be back.
Very packed everytime I go! It is good food, however a bit pricey. Would recommend though if you don't mind the price. Staff also had good customer service
Good experience both times I've been, great food that isn't too expensive but also feels like the more healthy option, great service and nice setting
I'm glad to be so close to an establishment like Bare Bones Society. It offers up the kind of food I like eating. The heirloom tomatoes were a knock out and I'm curious to try their dinner offerings.
Been here a couple of times, it's true what they say - it can get quite busy! Coffee is ok, but the food is quite good! I love the way they serve their food, as well as the different concoctions they dish up on the menu. Definitely worth going to. Will be one of my regular spots 😊
Love love love! Bare Bones. Admittedly I've always thought the location was odd, being smack bang in the middle of the Homemaker carpark and all.. but the food and coffee definitely make up for it.
I trekked to Jindalee on my lonesome last Friday in search for smashed avo and a cup of Toby's Estate and certainly wasn't disappointed! Wait staff were friendly, attentive and quick as per usual, however I found it to be a little more expensive than normal.. (perhaps something to do with the avocado shortage?) Regardless, it was still a stellar experience. Worth the trip!
Unless you have a booking, it's pretty much impossible to get a table here - but that however speaks for itself as the food is really decent! Love the "goodie bowl" and their smoothies! I love that there are so many healthy options on the menu with some good variety that won't leave you feeling like you're missing out if you are watching your figure. The service is fast and friendly too, which is great, and the place has a charming atmosphere!
Dropped in for coffee and a muffin on a Sunday afternoon. Very friendly service and the coffee was excellent! The muffin was a little dry, but yummy. We will be back to try a meal next time!
This is a great place. The food is always lovely and great coffee. The only downside is, its that busy. Wish it could be my local, would love to have it closer.
What a great little place! Busy café in the middle of a car park! Fab coffee and hooray for almond milk! I had the fritters and they were so good! Big serving, everything was so fresh and delicious. I loved this place! Great work guys!
Simplicity, from the venue to the food it's simple but this amplifies the experience everything is crafted to a high standard I always know what to expect every time round might I add I keep my standards and expectations to a high bare bones and have never been let down. It's quite the staple for us jindanites and consistently churns out great times, an amazing atmosphere and eggs Benedict to die for.
I was in the area and had 30 mins to kill so stopped into Bare Bones for a coffee. They offer lactose free milk options so I was very happy and my coffee was delish! The brekky menu looks great and I love the fit out. I will be back!
Awesome brunch place they serve good foods with ok price. Their price is around 20-30ish for a plate of brunch meal. I wouldn't say it's the most affordable ones but they do serve good foods. Their place is pretty crowded too , good presentation of foods tho.
Food is amazing. I had fritter with avocado, haloumi and bacon, and I loved it. Fritter was a little bit bland, but there were bacon, haloumi and tomato chutney to have with, so no biggie. Received good service even though it was busy. Will definitely be back to try other dishes :)
Ventured to brunch at Bare Bones Society which is located in the centre of homemaker city at Jindalee. Quite a random spot but nonetheless, it was very busy on a Monday morning at 10.30am.... I ordered a flat white and my friend ordered a cappuccino. The coffees took a long time to arrive and were not hot enough. It was Toby’s Estate coffee so of course it tasted good. However, it was lacking warmth and we could literally chug the whole cup in few seconds.
Busy for a reason!. Yes the place is busy. Yes I'm still happy to go there and wait a bit for my food, coz the food and coffee are delicious :) worth the wait on Saturday mornings.
Amazing food. I have never felt the need to write a review, but the food and service at Bare bones was exceptional and warranted comment. Certainly not what you would expect in the burbs. My only opened only complaint is it is only opened on Friday night for dinner.
Lovely bustling suburban cafe restaurant. Visit if something else takes you to area.. Bare bones is a solid suburban cafe restaurant located in a homemaker warehouse area of Jindalee.
We went for lunch on a weekend, and boy was it busy. There is table service, but we did have to flag attention from a waitress to get some menus and water. Once that was done though - a tasty quick and very quality casual dining experience.
We had a chicken salad and a philly cheese steak burger. I had a very simple but satisfying chocolate malt milkshake on the side. Good quality and tasty food, better service would make this a more frequent visit.
Great food, coffee & juices. Funky cafe. Will definitely be back.
As a westsider bare bones has quickly become my go to brunch spot, it is a relief to have somewhere fashionable, delicious and trendy nearby rather than hiking over to Paddington or new farm. The smashed avocado is one of my all time favourites and I am always impressed by the creativity of the chefs who post different specials and different menus each week... One criticism would be that it is overpriced. The smashed avocado is $14 for 1 piece of sourdough and some feta and avo .... the extras are all $4.5 each so once I've added on 2 poached eggs, bacon and hash browns to make it a decent meal I'm at nearly $30 .... I don't know how long bare bones will be able to keep customers with such insane pricing but the food, coffee, service and ambiance is wonderful - please rethink your pricing, most breakfast spots do 2 aides for $5 now
Good little suburban Cafe. GREAT coffee. Best sweet potato chips I have ever had in my lifetime. Service is average, but not unpleasant. Food could come out faster at times. Been here a few times. Overall, a nice outing every time.
Not sure what cafe they are referring to in the last review, but Bare Bones is most definitely open before 20am on a Sunday, to my knowledge it's open from 8am! Amazing food and coffee, and you can't go past their cold pressed juices. Staff are always friendly, and I take my hats off to the chefs for consistently providing fabulous meals when the restaurant is pumping.
Local gem. Love this place, always good food and it's nice to have a "brunch" place locally. The service is mixed, sometimes we'd have really good service, other times totally average the food would take over an hour to arrive. They need to work on their service system during busy periods.
Other than that, food is great and the quesadilla and haloumi salad are my faves. They do change the menu quite often though. Also, Friday night themed dinners are fabulous and good value. Check out their facebook page.
Definitely a lovely place for coffee, breakfast, brunch and long catch ups.

Great service, food and coffee. I completely disagree with the last review. Yesterday I accompanied my wife to this establishment, yes it was quiet busy, but that's a great sign of good food, beverages and service. I ate the byron bay burger, while my wife had the club, and we both agreed it was probably the best meal we've ever had. The burger was juicy but not under or over cooked. The club featured a various amount of amazing flavors and if the sizes had been any bigger there is no way I would've been able to finish it, but I would've tried! Coffee was amazing, it was smooth and creamy and beautifully presented. The service was great. They looked like they wanted to be at work and are extremely friendly. The girls didn't hesitate to ask how everything was and listened intently as I told them. They then informed me of the Friday night dinners, which if I get time I will definitely try! Overall amazing place! I wouldn't listen to any one who uses my kitchen rules as a tool to base their opinion of food
Different & Delicious. Interesting and different menu here.
Both items I have had were great.
Mushroom Burger >>>> 8/10
Warm Salad >>>>>> 9/10
Coffee >>>>> 5.5/10, a bit cool and lacking in bite for my taste.
Delicious!. My sister in law ad I went here today and the food was delicious. I had the smashed avo on sourdough which was just the right amount. It was a little slow getting the food out but it was busy. But overall it was great, I would go back.
Fabulouse Evening. Went with a group of friends for Friday night dinner. The theme was American and the food was delicious! I had the sliders for starters, loved every mouthful, the freshness and mix of spices where perfect. My main meal was also delicious and my steak was cooked to perfection. All my friends had a great evening and we will be going back. Service was relaxed and professional, highly recommended.
Lively. Friendly. Professional.
Absolutely amazing food, excellent value for money, great atmosphere, friendly staff, all in all an excellent lunch. Highly recommended.
The food was delicious and the service was outstanding. To be working and providing great customer service everyday would be exhausting, but the gentleman who served us and the team behind the counter were able to create a warm and welcoming environment for all diners. I barely write reviews but this is one worth writing for. Thank you for your service, we shall return again.
Mothers day disappointment. I have been here 3 times for casual lunch and have always enjoyed it. Booked over 3 weeks ahead for Mothers day only to find a few days beforehand that it would be a set menu/set price/set time. Well this should be good I thought. Wrong - Overpriced, overcrowded, loss of quality of food - vegetarian goats cheese tart- basic puff pastry (undercooked & burnt on the bottom) very little goats cheese, very little basil, very boring, very expensive at about $25, no sides. Chicken main raw near the bone and bland and boring on a sea of dull polenta.If only they had stuck to their usual menu my family would have been happy. As it was it cost me $250 for a disappointing 2 course menu for 5.
I am having lunch here with my mum tomorrow, Dad doesn't want to go back, will post again with hopefully a better review as I know Kym can do better.
Awesome breakfast. Bare Bones Society is a great little spot for brekky. While the menu at first glance might look limited, the wide variety of extras means you can build around the standard meals and have a delicious breakfast to your own tastes.
The food is great value for money - big serves and my husband and I always leave satisfied. Always busy, but they are generous with the number of staff they put on, so tables are turned over quickly when other guests leave and there is never a long wait.
I would highly recommend Bare Bones Society.
The Best In The West. I went this morning with my friend who has been several times, although I live closer to the city I will be coming back. We had the green eggs and mushrooms with goats curd, and we shared and loved every bite. The serving are large enough to share so maybe have a sweet treat at the end. It was early so it was not that busy and meals came out quickly, he staff were friendly and not overbearing or non caring as you find in some places and the owners Kym and Jade were a real delight and we were so proud of them and what they have achieved. I also,run a business and find it so hard to please everyone, but knowing all this they were just so humble. I can't wait to go back again!! Loved it :) priced well to, big breakfast and coffee for two under $40 at this standard is awesome.
Three visits so far and I keep coming back! Can't resist the coffee, always good! The pulled pork burger rocked my world, will have to try every burger on the menu after trying that one! Toddler friendly which is hard to find these days! Staff were really helpful and service was super fast. Thanks Bare Bones!
This cafe is such a gem. Very Melbourne vibe to it. Coffee, food, service and atmosphere are all excellent. 10/10.
Yummy !. I just had lunch there for the first time today and I say ...... Fantastic ! Service was great as was the food and the coffee was divine ! It was a full house when we got there and the atmosphere was fantastic :) will enjoy this place again and again :)
We had a lovely breakkie there this morning. The girl that served us with so friendly and genuine. The meals were very nicely prepared and satisfying. And it was a nice chilled atmosphere. We've been here before and will definitely visit again.
Great service, unique & delicious food (we had the cauliflower veloute with maple bacon & shallot jam - AMAZING!) excellent Toby’s Estate coffee. We will definitely be back!
Really good suburban cafe with great coffee and food. The tomato soup special is very tasty if it's available.
Great cafe with amazing food and coffee! Went there for lunch and would definitely recommend! The staff are lovely too - thank you!!
What a great spot in the suburbs to enjoy a coffee and brunch with friends. The service is quick and always with a smile and the coffee is damn good too. I always love getting here early around 8-9am while it is calm and quiet and before the craziness begins.
We dined at 9:30a.m. on Sunday. A table opened up as we arrived and we were served and seated immediately.
The decor was smooth, clean and comfortable.
The menu was impressive, with many delicious options. These were supplemented by specials.
The food arrived quickly and it was hot, fresh and very tasty. The coffee was good and the passion fruit smoothie was excellent.
The staff were very helpful and checked in a few times.
We’ll be back.
Always busy. Decent coffee and the food is good. Not the greatest location (it feels like you're in a car park, because you are) but nice anyway.
