  bitter and seemed more like a single shot size than a dbl I ordered. wouldn't recommend unless you're ordering something with milk that disguises the taste of the coffee

  This is a perfect little designer nook hidden away behind the office blocks of HQ. Their new range of gourmet delights for breakfast are to die for. Love the service. Love the Coffee. 10/10

  I love discovering new cafés like Tonic Espresso + Bar in the Valley. What a little gem!
  
  Parking-wise, it’s actually not that easy to get to. I admit that I don’t know this area really well, but from what I could see the parking options are a bit limited. I eventually... Read more

  One of the great things about the cafes in Fortitude Valley is that if you don't serve good coffee you won't be around long enough to get much of a reputation. With that said, Tonic Espresso is the bizniz!
  
  A worthy addition to your regular list. As with most places in the Valley,... Read more

  Geez a bit of a happy face would help. Decor funky not state of the art funk. Ristrettos 9 or 9.5 not 10. Long black tastes a bit burnt. Not quite what I would score tops- like Sydney's Coffee Brothers

  Consistently high quality in both coffee and delicious banter with the baristas. Tonic is my first stop every morning.

  Good coffee and barristers that know what they are doing. They can get a bit flustered when busy and service suffers but 9 times out of 10 they do well.

  unequivocally my fave bris coffee! don't go there for the service tho, you could go there every day (i wish) and they'd still act like they've never seen you before. fortunately it's all about the coffee

  Opened under Tonic Architecture Design on 17 May 2010. Small coffee bar with limited seating and not much food, if any. I had a tasty flat white with well-steamed milk. Don’t know whose beans they are using.

  Tonic is without a doubt my favourite coffee shop in town, in fact it's better than the majority I've been to in the country. The vibe is amazing here. The arty look of the cafe is a beaut and makes it feel fun. Music is always on top form. Service is great, they never forget what you want even... Read more

  Amazing Coffee! Amazing! A unique blend, and to top it off you can now buy their coffee, fairly reasonable too. I will definitely be going back!

  great espresso bar in emerging locality of the valley; beautiful coffee, occasionally changing up one of the blends (their own, as far as i understand).
  a simple, but welcome selection of food, such as wraps, toasties etc. and sweets at times.
  these guys have a prime spot on Hynes... Read more
