  • After weeks of being told about the place, I finally visited a great cafe/coffee lounge in Wooloowin called CoffeeGuy. It was not until a friend and I arranged to catch up on the weekend there that I finally got around to checking the place out.

  • A lot of cafes serve long blacks too hot, as if the shot is poured into boiling, rather than hot, water. It seems to be a matter of preference; I know more people who prefer their black coffee super hot than those who don't.

  • One Saturday morning, I stopped off in Stafford on the way to the city. I had been told that there is a cafe just off Webster Road, next to an Ultra Tune, that's well worth checking out.

  • GW Privateroom  is the first hairdresser I've been to that offers wine as well as tea or coffee. They also do breakfast. It is a neat little place in Festival towers with free parking for customers and one of the coolest two level layouts I have seen. Hannah recommended the place, and it was a great choice.

  • They were wearing weskits. All of them. That was the first thing that I noticed at Dandelion and Driftwood. The cafe itself looked like someone's caffeine-fuelled Victorian corner store with enough technology to add a hint of steampunk. Dandelion & Driftwood is located on Gerler Road in Hendra on Brisbane's northside, just near Mario @ the Dining Room. A real coffee geek I know was raving about the place last week, and as he both knows more than me and strongly recommended the place, I had to check it out.

  • Their coffee is ok and a $10 big breakfast is not too bad at all. Cafe @ Kitchener is another suburban cafe worth looking at if you are in the area.

  • Away from Brunswich street, Little Larder is as off the beaten track as you are likely to get this close in to the Valley. It's a cute little cafe in what looks like it used to be a corner shop.

  • Lavazza is used in a lot of cafes. Someone once told me that it is one of the harder coffees to screw up. The barrista at Fuscia could have made a decent coffee with almost anything though. There big breakfast was good too.

  • After walking past one that had too many cyclists and another that did not have comfortable looking seats, I found Platform 6, a small restaurant on Vernon Tce.

  • A few blocks away from Brunswick street there is a shopping and apartment complex called Emporium. According to their website, there are "...over 35 specialty retailers, restaurants and cafes and parking...". They might be lying about the parking though.
