Our humble CBD is not really the place one thinks of when it comes to hipster cafes, but local haunt Brother Espresso is out to make you think again. Tucked away in the no man's land between the commercial precinct and the botanic gardens, it's the little touches that make this place so undeniably charming. Blackboards featuring quotes of the day and weather forecasts; fold out zines pasted to the walls; regularly changing exhibitions of the work of local artists... The list goes on.
Housed in a century old heritage building on Margaret Street, you'll enjoy the quiet ambiance borne of a combination of freshly-ground coffee beans, designer furniture and textured brick walls. But it's not just the trendy locale and great coffee that make this place a winner. Come in for breakfast or lunch and your stomach will be treated as much as your senses, with creative healthy options aplenty. Or why not try one of their amazing banana and honey smoothies? (A delicious meal in its own right, especially for those lacking dollars and calcium).
Get in before the rest of the city finds out about it.
