Yes I've been there twice now. Two weekends in a row around 8am. Both with friends and all trying something different from the menu. Everyone had only positive things to say, except maybe the portions were large and they shouldn't have eaten it all. If you're going for breakfast they are not going to have your typical breakfast foods. But who doesn't love a lunch style menu for breakfast. Regardless, you'll have trouble deciding what to have. It's an eclectic menu and if you prefer something on the lighter side there is a bakery onsite as well. I was told the chef likes to play around when I asked about a particular biscuit/cookie. Think red velvet biscuit with marshmallow inside. The staff are very friendly and helpful giving recommendations with regard to what might satisfy your craving when you've narrowed your decision down to two. For my part there were a lot of meals with eggs which I'm very fussy about so typically just don't choose it (makes sense ). But there were a couple I just really want to try next time and was told some accommodation could be made. Having said that the ingredients in each meal are so well thought out I would really not want to change things up. Unless it was to maybe ask for the egg on the side. Will I be back. Yes definitely, even if just for a coffee and pastry. I will try to not be so excited to eat and even take some photos.

Two visits in one day. Yep, it's not what I'd planned but let's roll with it…read more Picnic might look fairly familiar as you walk into this new Camp Hill hidey-hole. There's good reason. It's the newest member of the Venzin Group family who've delivered Brisbane the likes of Green Papaya and Pawpaw Cafe. In fact, interior wise, you'll feel right at home and wonder if you're in a Pawpaw transplant. You're not although there's touches that keep it familiar. One such touch is executive chef Rory Doyle who's graces in the menu are clear. There's hearty and non-traditional breakfast menu items that all let you select breakfast and a coffee for under $20. Then there's familiar lunch items like the Picnic Burger (this had sold out by the time I headed back for lunch at 12:20pm) and gnocchi. I had the pumpkin gnocchi which was light and filling. It's good quality and again under $20 with a drink. I was pumped for time when I stopped in on my way to meetings this morning so opted for the fruit toast and a coffee. The fruit toast is the lightest I've ever tasted. It really is a fruit brioche. Paired with a light layer of Pepe Saya butter - delicious! Coffee is, as with Pawpaw, Campos but the team are consistently good baristas so the quality remains high. Like Pawpaw there was a steady flow of people and already they're experiencing weekend lines as people trek to taste the new venture. Service is fast, but done well. Granted, I visited on a Thursday but still both visits had at least several other diners in at the same time. For all the similarities, this isn't Pawpaw. It is its own cafe in its own right. Today was the first of many visits I think, and I'm looking forward to see how Picnic grows into it's name and space.

During the week Blue Poppy offers the usual range of espresso-based coffees and teas, as well as a number of juices (and poppers!), pre-packed sandwiches and usual café fair that is thick cut banana bread and other small sweets. During the week only pre-prepared food is available, though they do offer a cooked breakfast on weekends. The banana bread that I had was nicely toasted, and pretty thick given the price. The coffee, made from di Bella beans, is excellently pulled. There is no bitterness in the espresso and the beans are well balanced. If you can get in between 7.30-8.30am, the coffee comes in at an astounding $2 for the regular (single shot) size. Cold pressed iced coffees and iced chocolates are also available in the fridge. The place has a warm suburban feel, and the staff are exceedingly friendly. Despite being staffed by a single person, the service is prompt and quick. Dog friendly, though the dogs are kept outside.

Look for the thai restaurant neon sign near Windsor train station and you've found The Low Road…read moreCafe. For locals and commuters you're in for a treat with fresh Genovese coffee being poured and an interesting and unsurprisingly quirky menu on offer. I had stopped in for breakfast and was greeted with choices including a Breakfast Salad (haloumi, leaves, dukkah egg, asparagus) and more standard options like avocado on toast. In the end I set my sights on the Breakfast Banana Split - fresh banana, berries (raspberries and strawberries), toasted museli, grated dark chocolate, toasted coconut and, frozen whipped banana). Served in a sundae glass it felt a lot more "naughty" and calorie-laden than it actually was and the frozen whipped banana (a great recipe with ridiculous ease) gives this a creamy sensation without the regret later in the day! Verdict: The coffee is consistent and for commuters stoping enroute to the train, this is key. The menu is cute and quirky and from my experience today backs it up with the goods. Four weeks in since opening, locals have clearly adopted this new kid on the block as their own and there's already customer / barista first-name-basis relationships in action. But, to be honest, it didn't blow me away. It's a great staple for locals but not for a trip to visit here alone.

Granted, it's mostly been for a sneaky take-away coffee but recently we stopped for 'elvensies' and the hummingbird cake was all you could want for a morning tea. This is a family-friendly cafe so if you have kids they're more than catered for - 100s and 1000s on the kids cups and a drawing area for their imaginations to run amok. Should kids not be your thing, be prepared for the little rugrats to be, well, be kids - making noise, running around and burning energy. If you can deal with that then you're in for a treat in a cafe that was once a dark and dreary looking antique store.

We arrived to find that it wasn't. A decision was made to walk to Rosalie, but we didn't even make it more than a block before seeing the welcoming sign 'open 7 days'. It's al small cafe, but with only a few tables it feels bright roomy. It is also air conditioned, which is a bonus as we head into the nasty summer months. The staff were very friendly and welcoming. Menus were already on the tables and they were trialling table service, which was executed promptly. Coffee was made well and the breakfast was filling, reasonably prices and well presented. I had the vegetarian breakfast of haloumi, tomato and spinach with toast. My partner had the mushrooms and we both had no complaints. A few flies buzzing around was the only frustration, but something that it difficult to avoid at this time of year. I look forward to going back and trying other options.

Its sheer ostentatious colour scheme has a hypnotic effect, you start to salivate and when you regain consciousness you're inside. Show tunes play in the background making you want for nothing more than to hop on a stool and wait of a frosty cold milkshake to slide your way. Then you realize you're in Milk. A modern take on the traditional milk bar/diner from classic times of jukeboxes and Fonzarelli. Being a café that's situated in one of Brisbane's busiest suburbs, Milk caters for a wide range of consumers. For those are time poor and in a rush, there is take away coffee and a display fridge carrying a selection of premade wraps and sandwiches. In addition, there is also a wide range of cakes, candy, ice cream and slices for the sweet tooth. After ordering at the counter, those with time in their corner have the option of sitting inside or outside. All around me there are mothers, business people, teenagers (on holidays) chatting, laughing and networking. It's a relaxing and family friendly atmosphere and the staff only amplify the surroundings. You can tell that Milk, with its nod towards traditional good service and quality foods encourages repeat business. For a lot of people in the room, I wouldn't be surprised if they were regulars sitting at their favorite tables eating their favorite food. For my induction into the Milk fold, I've ordered a Chicken Licken Burger ($16.90) and a Banana Milkshake. When it comes out it's more than worth the dollars I've chucked into it. Halfway through I'm full but determined to finish my meal. Not because I'm a sucker for punishment but because of how great its tastes. The pain is worth it.

I first heard about it from a friend and she described it to me as a 50s milk and burger bar, so naturally my eyes widened and I was keen for the first opportunity to eat there. Walking in there is just so much yellow! Yellow lounges, yellow and white striped interior awnings, yellow staff shirts, and a yellow website if you feel like having a look. It's really well furnished and gives off an air of retro glamour without any of the tacky elements that people sometimes associate with retro, yet it's also modern. I don't know how they managed to pull that off, but the end product is an amazingly inviting café where I want a boy wearing a bowtie and Ray Bans to take me for a milkshake and ask me to go steady. Or a bad boy wearing a leather jacket à la Grease. Either is good thanks. The breakfast menu caters for every nation. And by that I mean you can choose from an English brekky, Welsh, Australian (with chips, obviously), Irish, Balinese, Scottish, Jamaican, Italian, and so many more! And I saw kiddies running around with cute little cupcakes. They also serve real tea, not teabag tea and make a really good cup of coffee. Did I also mention the music? I heard flashes of Tom Jones, the Beatles, the Carpenters and, wait for it, Disney. Beauty and the Beast to be exact. Be Our Guest, to be more exact. Need I say more?
