  A very cool little espresso bar in the heart of Caxton Street! Just opened this year, they serve a relatively new blend of beans (in Brisbane) called Caffe Di Gabriel.

  Cartel is now under new management and have changed coffee suppliers. They now serve a good cup of Campos. Cartel are also now offering live music. Every Thursday night at about 8pm, they host an open mic night. Id recommend you check it out!
