My wife and I were in Brisbane for an appointment, it was the 4th time we were in Brisbane the last few months. We had walked past this place last time we were there, We were not impressed not impressed with the food from the previous cafes we had visited ( the qty vs price and service. ) When we walked past the Caffeine Kitchen today we stopped in and were overwhelmed with the service, the cost. and the quality of food blew me away vs the price. , I had the Hash brown stack It is the first time I have ever seen steam/ heat coming off my food at a cafe, it was fresh, how flavoursome. Highly recommended - this will be our go to cafe when we are next in that area of Brisbane

The coffee here is pretty good. It comes with a chocolate covered coffee bean, which ticks all of my boxes. I haven't noticed the staff being particularly friendly (or otherwise), but it is nice enough and service is quick. Can't speak much to the food but the biscuits look really good.

Enjoyed a delightful breakfast at the Caffeine Kitchen for a coffee with avo on toast. The meal and coffee where both just what you need in the morning and the service was fast and very polite. My meal included avocado on toast with two eggs and some craked pepper over the top. Recommend for a hungry morning.

I ordered a flat white with no froth and that is exactly, gloriously what I got. And hot too. These things should not be a measure of a good place however unlike Caffeine Kitchen, too many places hear "flat white" and give a latte or they hand-temp the jug so that the milk is 40° not 60+° like it should be. So, I was able to enjoy my coffee for a good half an hour. It was late morning so it was quiet and many seats. As it got closer to midday and the lunching hour, more people arrived. I did not eat as I was not hungry. Pro-tip: I sat inside at the high bench which is great for that but there are tables outside in the elevator foyer including a long wooden one which was very artistic. Unisex toilets there too.
