I've been meaning to detour the market momentarily to visit the roastery.
We arrived on a Saturday morning & was quite surprised we had plenty of room to move (a pram included). The definite highlight was the service. The guy behind the counter was warm / helpful & genuinely warm. It was a lovely way to be welcomed.
The food was a bit underwhelming, certainly not bad. Just a bit above average &with nothing really standing out. I had the Mediterranean (chorizo, mushrooms, tomatoes, holumi & toast) & my friend had the omelette.(chorizo & variety of other extras)
Overall it was pretty alright. If that's not the epitome of fence sitting I don't know what is.
.... But it's...
This place is in a great area, far from the over-saturated South Bank cafe scene. On a Sunday the place can get pretty busy, so you may be waiting a while if a large group arrives just before you. Sparkling water on tap is a great touch.
Some of the menu represents great value. The smoothies are expensive, but are large, filling and full of dense ingredients. The smashed avo/feta and haloumi sides were, by contrast, a little overpriced for the quantity provided.
There's plenty of bike parking to cater for the lycra crowd, but as with most of South Bank, on-street car parking is very limited.
Been here several times prior and was ok however there is a new manager on who has a really turned the place around there is a new outdoor seating area and indoor air con space too .... The coffee was always good however it seems to be better now. Had a Piccolo and short black and both were on point. I also 1had Hot Dog with the lot and was a good size and price for the quality. Will definitely be back when I am in South Bank TAFE next. Would have to be one of the best coffees in the South Bank area. Cool funky little space too now

We were in Brisbane visiting a friend and she took us to this cute little cafe. We ordered the Amazonia Acai Bowl, the Pea and Mint Fritters and Orange and Poppyseed hotcakes. All dishes tasted great and were healthy and were presented nicely!

Dugout is pretty good for an on-campus coffee shop. It was a but inconsistent when it opened but is really good now!!
I wouldn't bother with the cabinet food, I've seen a lot of it with mould growing on it but they seem to have a more extensive fresh food menu that I haven't really bothered to check out.
I decided I would have a healthy meal of the kale salad here, it came with one of my favorite additions of avocado too. The almond croissants looked divine, but I really needed that green kale for energy & cleansing ! Not overpriced either
I wanted this to be better than it was. The coffee was watery and not helped by the staff being more interested in talking to each other than serving the customer.
Best coffee out. Cute cafe, friendly staff, and tasty cabinet food. Quite a busy place on peak hour but wait isn't too long. Wish they were open weekends!!

The coffee is great！but the location is not good as good other stores. The coffee bean are all roasted by themselves sooooooo great! Highly recommended
A usual brew stop when cycling around the riverloop. Great coffee and breakfast food. May have to drop in there one day when not clad in lycra.
