Cartel - Caxton St

  Cartel Coffee on Caxton St has a cool vibe, friendly staff and a pretty good coffee to boot. 'Cartel' uses a Sydney boutique roaster "Caffe Di Gabriel" which is yet to really break into the Brisbane espresso market. 

  All of my encounters with this little espresso bar which has touches of south american charm, have been great. Located right near the top of Caxton St, this is definitely a new up and comer to check out.

The Coffee Guy - Wooloowin

Thought there wasn't anywhere to get a decent coffee a little further out into the suburbs? Well think again.

Today I visited "The Coffee Guy" Mr Daniel Salter. They now have two stores, the original espresso bar/roastery and the cafe down the road.

They can be found at:

1. Shop 2, 85 Kent Rd Wooloowin 

and

2. 38 Shaw Rd Wooloowin.

I asked Daniel for a description of his Signature Roast which is the house blend, and this is what he gave me. I would agree with this description.

"Signature Roast - a combination of supreme Arabica coffees sourced to create a flavour profile that is rich and full with strong earthy, cocoa tones. Recommended for espresso coffees with or without milk."

If you're in the area, stop by and visit Daniel or one of his crew for a great coffee.
