This little café on Stanley Street, half a block from the Mater Hospital, is a favourite breakfast place of ours. Decked out with eclectic vintage furniture and a lively and down-to-earth staff, it is the atmosphere that keeps us coming back to Desmond and Molly Jones, as much as the food and the coffee.
On a recent visit with friends we had Turkish bread with homemade jam and homemade crumpets. Most of the foods are quite original, and a pleasant change from the usual breakfast staples of bacon, eggs and sausages with extra grease.
Don’t expect a peaceful experience, though – the staff do not shy away from a bit of noisy banter with the locals. Between that, and the tapping of espresso machine filters and the Stanley Street traffic, it is not exactly serene. But it is fun.

Lived in Brisbane all my life and never seen this place before. Definitely going to go and give it a try now! Thanks!
