Review Forking Espresso - Brisbane

Great little Austrian cafe. Plenty of parking and a warm greeting upon arrival and table service. The food is delightful and there is a massive variety. We were served by Ash and she was extremely attentive, friendly, and provided wonderful service. Lovely atmosphere and well worth the trip.

A great European cafe. Lovely espresso served with water as it should be. Tradition straight from Vienna. Julius Meinl, the best coffee maker from Europe.They have newspapers to read which makes my coffee even more delicious. Staff are very friendly. Prices are good. Im going to be a regular there. Thats for sure...

I eat here regularly and the food and service is normally very good. However, yesterday (Sunday lunch) it took over an hour to receive our food and the portions were unusually small (one small piece of bacon and two chipolata sausages) for a k&k breakfast. Admittedly they were reasonably busy but not up to their usual high standards

Great local restaurant We had a wonderful Sunday lunch at this local Sinnamon Park restaurant. The lovely outdoor balcony was full of families and a piano accordion player in lederhosen - which gave it an almost authentic beer garden feel. The food was delicious and the service was super friendly! This is Austrian cheer and hospitality at it's best!!

Found K & K by chance as we were attending open houses in Sinnamon Park. As we are from German background were super exited when finding out that's a Austrian Cafe. Ordered coffee and Apple strudel with cream. Disappointed with the strudel as the apples were hard and not cooked properly and the pastry was soggy and not baked. My mocha and my daughter's hot chocolate were served in a glass that was not warmed up prior, resulting in cold beverages within 2 minutes. All in all not impressed - could've been a new regular joint for us. Don't ever think it's good enough as your customers don't know how it really should taste like. There are also customers like us around who do.

For A in our trip around the world in Brisbane we chose Austria, and so we found ourselves at K&K. The restaurant is located at the Sinnamon Park local shops, which offer convenient parking. Seating is well spaced and airy, mostly being on a covered deck that offers a late 80's - early 90's feel. The menu is extensive, which I can only imagine would make it challenging to manage stock and maintain quality. I had goulasch (beef shin braised in paprika sauce with a dumpling), and my lunch partners had a Vienna schnitzel with kipfler potato salad. To drink I had an Austrian beer, which was very enjoyable, and my dining partner had a Vienna coffee, which she also enjoyed. I'm advised that the schnitzel was "fine" and so was the goulasch. The dumpling seemed to have been made some time earlier, but was not bad. In hindsight I should have expected that... For desert we had an apple strudel and a cherry crumble tart. Both were fine, but I wish the strudel was a bit richer in spice. The presentation was a little cafeteria like. I suspect that cutting the menu down by half or to a third of its size would enable the chef to offer some amazing Austrian fare. While not out of this world, the $80 bill seemed a shade more than what was justified by the quality. After getting ourselves into the mood with some Austrian yodeling folk music on our way there, the local radio background music seemed like a bit of a letdown, TBH. Visually the dining space could be lifted with some Austrian cues to extend the Austrian theme in the point of sale area. The floor staff were all polite and genuinely sought to ensure we were well tended to. The lady from the kitchen who managed my payment got a bit flustered about something that didn't need to be a problem, and was uncomfortably gruff with the waiter that started my payment process, but remained polite with me. Please respect your staff. It's free, and reflects well on you. If you're up for some Austrian food and you're in the area, consider giving K&K a go.

Delivers consistently high standards of service and food including Austrian specialities. The large veranda welcomes both customers and their pets. The coffee is excellent!

Shocking service, rude staff, very average breakfast and coffee. Coffee was only warm. Waited a long time despite 3 staff on the floor. Live locally and decided to try this cafe for the first time, never ever again! We asked if they had sourdough on the menu and were told no but when we went to pay we saw that all their loaves for sale were sourdough. When question the staff gave a poor response and the owner just looked at us, really dissapointing. We also asked for spinach with breakfast and were told they don't serve it. We said we saw it on other plates but were told it was a salad mix "and we won't seperate this out for you". Quite agressive.
