What a find! Cannot believe it has taken so long to find…read moreit. This place is great - it has changed hands since the last review and some changes made, still praiseworthy. The family love this place including our dog. It is on Ekibin Road - there is parking out front but best to use s side street. Walk up - do the COVID check in - find a table inside or out in the backyard garden ( our preference as we take the dog) There is a dog playground at the back next to the table - most dog friendly cafe I have seen. But let's get down to what's important- coffee & food - both good. The long blacks more than passed muster and given an excellent score by the other half. The capppuccino on almond always hits the spot. Coffee is excellent. Food is also excellent - the snag varieties vary day to day so check for favorites. Good selection of vegan and GF options. Top marks!

Adding another gem to Annerley/Moorooka/Tarragindi surburban cafe landscape this place is well on it's way to becoming a brunch/breakfast favourite. We visited Subsay morning 10ish - while we had no reservation (and it happened to be Father's Day - oops) we were still seated & served quickly. Menu features many bfast faves with some twists thrown in such Banana Bread French Toast the husband ordered along with specials like the Moroccan eggs that I had. Many gluten free & vege friendly options available. Carnivores fear not maple bacon & homemade sausage varieties abound. Coffee orders were taken promptly and delivered swiftly. Bare Bones coffee FTW. We didn't try the juices or smoothie options but they did sound good. Service was great considering the business of the day. My hashbrown side order did get slightly forgotten at first - which I'm attributing to simple new staff error - but soon appeared once brought to their attention. They are open for lunch & dinners (not totally sure which mights) and wine list we are keen to go back and try that out soon.

I've made a few trips to Penny, some just for coffee (takeaway and sit down) and a few with food…read more Across the board, Penny is outstanding in terms of Brisbane's cafe scene. The baristas are exceptionally skilled, and there is a selection of roasts to choose from. While I normally like my coffee black, something that isn't too hard to make, I've had a few flat whites from Penny which have been excellent. A friend of mine asked if they're able to pull a piccolo using soy milk, without the milk splitting. Despite indicating that the barista don't need to try if they haven't made one before, they produced one (after two failed attempts) by slowly adjusting the extraction to the point where they could add a shot to soy milk without producing soy cheese. Doing this despite explicitly not needing to is the sort of above and beyond that earns long-term customers. The food is similarly stellar. The avo on sourdough may at first blush seem like a pricier version of what everyone else is doing. The flavours in Penny's version are, however, inventive and balanced to a point I haven't had elsewhere. There's a nice balance between the feta, dukkah and pomegranate where you can taste all of them without one overpowering the other. The vegetabowl is similarly great. There's just enough of each ingredient that you can taste them, without the dish being overpowered by one note. Penny's interior makes maximal use of the space. There are comfortably sized tables out front and inside, and some bar seating by the espresso machine. The best seats in the house, though, are out back, and include a few longer tables. The staff at Penny are attentive, friendly and great at pulling a coffee and making food.

What a gem! Penny is the best cafe in the area by far. It is rare to find a cafe that provides an…read moreexcellent choice of coffee (try the home brew) and delicious breakfast. The staff is friendly

Beautifully welcoming, open and light airy furnishings, make for comfortable dining both inside and out.

I had the potato and parmesan cakes with pumpkin hummus, avocado aioli and bacon; my friend opting for the smashed avo and feta on pumpkin bread. Not a single crumb was left on either plate. I'll definitely be back, a great local cafe that is super cute and has a real fresh feel.

Epitome of #foodporn! I find the prices extremely reasonable, in line with other Brisbane cafes but the food was so so delish. I had eggs Benedict while my mum had pancakes, both were divine. I also had one of their house sodas, which had passion fruit, lime and mint and it was a decent size too, not a teeny tiny glass that you get in some places. It's opposite a large park and has a great relaxed open at feel to it, a definite must return.

My entire morning routine was reduced to throwing on a shirt and pants, stumbling across the road, and receiving top-tier, life-saving coffee.

The food is excellent, the coffee is genuinely great, and the sheer convenience is downright lethal.

3/3/2013 - "Smile"…read more On a rainy and gloomy day, sometimes that feeling of cosiness (and laziness) requires the injection of a good old meat pie. For no other reason than to feel even more cosier and lazier. Stopping by in our old neighbourhood we decided to grab a quick bite at Yeronga Bakery and Cafe. The Bakery and Cafe has a wide selection of sweet and savoury, from pastries, to cakes, sandwiches, toasties, to sausage rolls and of course meat pies as well as coffee. There were no other customers, and to be blunt, service was very poor. The youngish woman who served us took ages to acknowledge our presence, and when she did; no smiles, and everything seemed like it was a huge favour. Like simply answering our query about what meat pies they had. Whether people realise it or not, as humans, we communicate largely non-verbally and so your mannerisms, your actions, your attitude, those micro-expressions, all convey a message. In this instance, it was "can't-you-see-i'm-over-it-and-i-just-want-to-go-home-please-go-away". Maybe it was getting towards closing time and we were infringing on her weekend plans? Who knows? We're just customers who happened by, lookin' for a good old meat pie. Still, I wanted to try their pies as their slogan is "Best Pies in Town". We ordered the Beef and Mushroom Pie, and the Beef, Bacon and Cheese Pie. We were going to sit in and make use of the tables & chairs outside, perhaps provide a ray of beauty and sunshine in this miserable weather but the cold reception left us feeling a little "off". We did enjoy the meat pie, as it warmed our bellies and hearts, hitting the proverbial sweet spot. As for "best pies in town"? Well, maybe. It depends on your definition of "Town". Best pies in Yeronga perhaps. Unfortunately, the same can't be said for their service, but hopefully, when the sun comes out, it'll be smiles, friendliness and happiness all around.

Coffee from Evo has to be some of the best in Brisbane. Just a hole-in-the-wall in a humble row of…read moreshops in Yeronga, Evo doesn't need to rely on having a trendy, grungy fit-out or an inner city location; they know coffee and they do it well. Using organic beans, owner, Steve, loves his coffee and prides Evo on producing a perfect one every time. Because of this, he is personally acquainted with nearly all his customers. The atmosphere there is like what you'd expect from a small town cafe--there's a strong sense of community and the happiness of his staff lays testament to the kind of establishment Steve runs. Steve keeps a limited range of home-made sweets in store, like muffins and biscuits, but the real focus here is on coffee, not food. If you live in the area, go and get your caffeine hit from Evo--it won't disappoint!

But the staff seem quite friendly: an added perk.

We were seated in the back where I got a clear view of the entire restaurant. The place is buzzing! We started off with some coffee, because that's what you do when in Australia. The coffee culture is HUGE here. After everyone arrived, we got down to business. We ordered: Crispy Corn Fritters: absolutely delicious! Crispy corn fritters soft on the inside are served with perfectly scrambled eggs. Not on the menu Breakfast Sandwich: this was for the kids who couldn't find anything on the menu they liked. Essentially a bacon and egg sandwich (on a burger bun). Smoked Pork Hock Hash: my least favorite dish is smoked pork hock potato cake dotted with green harissa, avocado, kefir tahini, and finished with two poached eggs. It wasn't bad, just kinda boring when compared to the rest of the stuff. Eggs Bender: Billykart's version of eggs Benedict. Two poached eggs and a respectable Hollandaise sauce paired with house smoked Ora King salmon, and a side of sauteed mustard greens. No traditional English muffin here, instead a thick slice of rustic sourdough bread substitutes. Aussie Asian Eggs: my favorite dish. Also, possibly the most creative. A cake of fried noodles is topped with grilled prawns and bacon plus two deep fried eggs over the top. Food is good, really good. If you're in the area, definitely stop by.
