Breakfast is the most important meal of the day - and a luxury when you've got time to eat your way into the morning. You can cook eggs just the way you like them at home but it is oh so nice to get good service, a delicious menu and real coffee to start the day.
We've listed some of Brisbane's top spots for breakfast (in no particular order).
Groove Train - City
With river views and a hip vibe, it's a newcomer to Brisbane's breakfast scene.
Gun Shop Café - West End
Seriously good breakfasts, always busy with a deserved reputation.
Eves on the Park - Roma Street Parkland, City
Great value breakfast amongst the quiet greenery of the Parkland.
Sassafras Café - Paddington
A casual, eclectic interior that's buzzing at breakfast time. Order at the counter but relax with magazines and papers to read. Recommend the ricotta pancakes.
David's off Oxford - Bulimba
Bulimba's hidden breakfast secret. David's offers divine breakfasts (try the trio of mushrooms with perfectly scrambled eggs on soughdough with truffle oil or the decadant eggs benedict). The brew of choice is Merlo Coffee.
Tognini's - Milton, Spring Hill and State Library South Bank
Yum sweet and savoury muffins plus hot options too.
City Gardens Café - City
Tucked away amongst the quiet of the Brisbane Botanic Gardens, it's open for breakfast every day from 8am.
Fatboys Café & Ric's Bar - Fortitude Valley
Located in the Brunswick Street Mall, enjoy cheap and fast breakfast food with a spot that's great for people watching.
Au Cirque - New Farm
A small place with fabulous design and decoration. There's an upstairs seating area and some organic food options. Open every day from 7am.
Café Conti - Wilston
One of the rare places to serve traditional breakfast fare of liver and bacon. But if that's not your favourite, there's always pancakes, eggs benedict or bubble and squeak.
Cabinessence - Paddington
Situated in an old service station on La Trobe Terrace, this is a great pit stop on a Sunday morning when there's a small fashion market outside. The avocado on toasted sour dough, with extra virgin olive oil and cracked black pepper is the best you will ever eat.
Jetty Kiosk - Manly
Located at William Gunn Jetty, you can dine right on the water, admire the beautiful yachts and imagine a day on the bay.
Rabottini's - Scarborough Open for breakfast, lunch and dinner, seven days a week. Located opposite Scarborough Park with a beautiful view of Moreton Bay. The Rabottini's special breakfast has eggs, spinach, feta, mushrooms, chorizo, ciabatta and is delicious.
