Qwerk Espresso

This was the first and last time I went to C.,'s house before she moved down to Melbourne so this breakfast will stick out in my memory for a lot of reasons. I also got to meet her lovely golden retriever puppy Lucy and she was so cute, I could've stolen her in my handbag. She was such a sweet, well behaved and bouncy little puppy.

Since I don't go too far north of the Brisbane CBD, she took me to her local cafe and we had a great time. It's easily found since it's on an intersection.

This place!
The interior is very mismatched furniture, lots of cosy nooks to sit in and band posters, upcoming festivals and events to catch your eye.

Their syrups

Another cosy nook
They have their menu chalked up on the chalkboard/desk which I thought was neat.


They also have a paper menu with that being said.


I got the Frooty Tooty juice, pineapple, watermelon, apple and orange drink. Or that's what it would be if they had any watermelon that day, that was fine with me because I don't actually like watermelon that much, It was a sweet, tart and icy cold drink, I really enjoyed it and would recommend it.

Tasty fluffy drink
I got the homemade spicy Texas beans with sausages on sourdough with cheese, tomato and jalapenos. It originally came with avocado, but I didn't want it so they knocked off a $2 off the price and they had no sour cream so I got two sauces free! My lactose intolerance flares up so badly with sour cream its a bit ridiculous. I quite liked the dish! The house made beans were kidney beans, slow cooked in a rich and slightly sweet tomato sauce, the sausage were thick cut, pork and mildly spicy. I found the cheese would've been more appealing briefly melted on top of the food, it was a bit sweaty looking when it arrived.


Free sauces, a tomato chutney and a hollandaise sauce.

Much better than sour cream anyway :D
C., got the smashed avocado and haloumi on toast with a drizzle of balsamic glaze. She said it was delicious, although you can't go wrong with a good avo smash!
