This place is heaven coffee in most delicious combination served with chocolate ganache or honey or almond milk ... And their chocolate cakes

Chai Latte

Try Kyoto cold brew coffee and matcha cake . Good way to enjoy your afternoon here. Don't try their ramen . Doesn't taste good.

Alecia Rudge

Great matcha latte (pictured) and the lentils and guacamole on sourdough (with paprika ) is my perfect breakfast .

Delicious niche offering - the flourless dark chocolate cake is to die for. Need to add new products to keep people interested but don't turn off air con and lights to save costs (real turn-offs)!!!

Maria

The 70% ice chocolate was very yummy and they were able to make a non-dairy smoothie for my friend. Will definitely come back for food another time.

Nicholas Ransome

Nice atmosphere and wonderfully presented cold brew . Macha cake was strange but nice.

Yasmin Morgan

The coffee is great! Have a try of their Chemex or Kyoto cold drip.

Christopher Kong

The Kyoto Cold Brew and chocolate cake is great! However, there is a 30c charge for card payments under $15 and an additional 1.5% surcharge on credit payments - seems unreasonable to double dip .

John Petrov

Cool space and great coffee . Ginger barista ????

Adam Meyer

This has to be the best coffee place in Brisbane CBD. Serves Chemex , and Kyoto cold brew !

Peter Black

A very funky little coffee shop . I recommend the Chemex and one of their flourless cakes .

Mark Tweedale

Their 70% chocolate cake is to die for. An absolute must-try for lovers of dark chocolate .

They have got the peanut butter and chocolate balance right. Get a frappe . Cool space upstairs.

YH Liu

Nice deco and great coffee .

Julian Chan

Wasn't impressed, burnt coffee , tastes very flat. Similar to instant coffee made at home sorry to say. Great ambiance though. Give it a go by all means and see what you think.

Andrew Sun

Manschy! The Mocha with dark chocolate is so rich!

Try "50% Matcha Cake ", you'll love it!!

Stephanie Low

Matcha flourless cake . Melts in your mouth. 'Nuff said.

<3 Matcha flourless cake

Golda Romero

Ahhhh green tea ice cream is love.

Eddie C

Bad PR - asked for two cups for a pot of tea to share and got told, "One tea , one cup only". We used one of the glasses for water. Go scungy on your customers and they'd go scungy on you.

Nerida Gill

Sunny breakfast was fantastic!

Vasso ????

This coffee place is so cool!

Rob Nicholson

Green tea cake , freak'n awesome!

J

Rice pudding and coffee

Nicole Wong

They have kyoto ice drip coffee ...

Claude Zhang

Over cooked chicken teriyaki . Terribly unoriginal weak brothed ramen and refried chicken katsu . At $58 it's neither cheap or tasty.

Alex Mayfield

A surcharge for paying by credit / Paypass? Um no.

Alex Mayfield

I thought my pork ramen was going to have meat in it - but no. #imnotavegetarian

Ricotta pancakes turned out a bit weird... Though overall the food tasted ok. Service was pretty bad and slow.

May

Was told 2.5% on top just to pay by credit card.. Seriously??

Dan Smedley

Refused to charge me the menu price for my cider , charged me $3 more .. Disgusted ...

Excellent coffee, a small but interesting and delicious menu, and beautiful cakes and baked goods make this a top breakfast spot. The only downside is the service, which is slow and occasionally rude. - Peter Black
