When I used to work on George Street a few years ago, this was my favourite coffee shop. I had the opportunity to stop by and have coffee and banana bread today - it’s just as amazing as I remember!
Met at this new cafe for a quick catchup with an old friend - Ordered a pumpkin + avo sandwich made fresh that day plus a soy latte.
Ambience and atmosphere was relaxed, and I particularly loved the backyard scenery. Wasn't too loud and the environment was nice for a lovely conversation (4/5)
Service and staff was pleasant, and quite efficient for a new cafe. Also very accomodating when I told them of my nut allergy. (4/5)
Food was also decent. I enjoyed the presentation of my food, but taste-wise, it was a little over average - good, but not too memorable. Coffee was very decent though. Not too strong, but if you're asking for a smooth, good-tasting coffee, this place does it right. Previous reviews have mentioned the limited food items on the menu. I agree, as the menu seems to be only limited to appropriate time frame for breakfast-brunch. We came at lunch, and luckily there was still some food items left. (3/5)
Overall not bad for a new cafe, it definitely has room and potential for some more improvements, and I look forward to going back.
A great addition to this end of the city. The coffee was well made, delicious and prompt. Staff are friendly and welcoming, and no rushing you out. I love the back courtyard and it's a comfortable, clean space to relax.
Was actually on my way to try out the Wanderer when I passed this coffee shop & decided to try it. Pleased I did as they pour a beautiful flat white. I ordered a double shot as I was informed the coffee was a pretty mild roast. The double shot fulfilled my desire for a coffee hit & it bought out all those delicate tones in the brew
Rounding off my days at on the other side of town, my companion, Iron Fist, decided that the second cafe that we should try was at Frankie and George, along George Street, not far from Iconic. Being quite a minimalist, he was drawn in by their simplistic yet bright setup. Ordering at the counter, the options were much the same as any regular cafe. Like Iconic, the cafe also featured seating out the back, but today we didn't have time to appreciate the setting.
Bircher Muesli is a must try (available in Vegan option). Best coffee in Brisbane CBD and gorgeous courtyard out the back, perfect for work meetings or work day escape.
Friendly crew, deliciously smooth coffee, and interesting spins on the standard cafe-to-go options (no cooked big breakfasts here). I had the Bircher muesli with yoghurt. I asked for a dollop of honey, which really made the dish. It may be a small thing, but the padded stools are really comfy! A great start to the morning.
Seriously great coffee, great service, well priced! The team here are so polite and lovely. Open weekends too, helpful as most places in the area are shut. Hope these guys survive 🙏
Seems to be a popular little place with seatings in the back patio. Coffee is great. Food is ok. We had the Benedict, Ham & cheese croissant and Big George.
Unassuming but definitely inviting. Great food options. Too generous in portion, I was soooo full! The donuts were quite unique too. The coffee was on point.
Nice place for breakfast, tasty food, good coffee, friendly staff
Oh My Gosh! best coffee in the area, i love that they use real chocolate too! great service and will now be my regular!
