    Have had a great chance to be here a couple of times in the last two weeks and nothing has changed - the coffee is sensational. Had a series of amazing coffees which just remind me that Dandelion and Driftwood really is the benchmark in Brisbane.

    Flying out on hols decided D &D was perfect stop off for a good coffee before we were at mercy of high priced, average Airport coffee. It has been 9 mths since I did a review and about the 4th visit in between then. Living at New Farm makes it hard to travel for coffee when surrounded by good... Read more

    Back again and why not. Brought a first timer with us. He didn't need sugar as the latte was sweet enough. So, enough said. This place is magic.

    The driftwood blend is lovely and the decor is cute but the service was not enthusiastic, overly friendly or warm. The baristas weren't very interactive or forthcoming with recommendations... The two times I've been here have been yummy but underwhelming overall. A shame!

    Still the best coffee I have experience. Went again today. It was a religious experience!

    I may have been a little critical only giving D&D a 9.3 last time. Went back today, had the drift wood blend. Incredible. I will be making the journey to D&D more regularly. Love it!!!!

    Treat yourself... Second time in brisbane, second time here... It's now an essential part of any visit..

    I dare say one of the best coffee "venues" in australia... a venue not just a cafe....None of that usual cafe noise and caffeinated loudness...
    It's a step into a classy old... Read more

    This place is as good as I remember, consistently awesome coffee, quite a few new staff but still original staff faces from years ago. Always so nice when you are remembered. Without a doubt my favourite place for coffee & sweets! It is obvious the baristas are all trained with eye for quality!

    Always pick up a coffee when I'm in the area, nice coffee cart outside.
    Coffee at its finest, flavor, aroma, taste and temperature are excellent.
    The food is delectable and it's a stylish set up, but beware...
    Attempt to enter whilst in (tidy, neat and clean) work clothes, and you... Read more

    I had heard a lot about this place and finally visited it today... I didn't have time to sit in, so I just got takeaways, but it was a nice coffee- good temperature, nice flavour, well made.
    Atmosphere and fit-out is inviting, a touch small but they know what they are doing.
    Food looked... Read more

    Sorry to be the person not rating 9 or 10 but my coffee was pretty ordinary. Had a medium double latte and it lacked flavour and was weak. Admittedly the milk was very smooth. Was first up in the morning so maybe the barista was half asleep still!

    Dandelion and Driftwood is one of those rare places that you want to preserve just the way it is. From the outstanding coffees, to the sweets, the great service and the attention to detail with the decor. Penny and Peter have created something very special here. Oh yeah...and did I mention that... Read more

    Yummy coffee and great friendly service. Food was excellent - my smashed pumpkin, goats cheese w dukkah on sourdough top-notch. Will have to book next time - the place was pumping for a Wednesday morning! I wanted to try heaps on menu, so will have to come back.

    Unmatched by any cafe in Brisbane, the coffee is always perfect, the staff know their craft and always offer suggestions. Food is good, however don't arrive expecting a to find a big breaky on the menu

    Driftwood blend is possibly the nicest coffee I've ever tasted... Big call.

    This is a beautiful place tucked away. The interior is very homely and the service is speedy.. Coffee is a cut above the rest. The coffee is full bodied and the earthy smooth taste is a heart warmer for cold winter days. Unfortunately the price tag for a large takeaway is also a cut above at $6... Read more

    Popped into this coffee shop on a Wednesday afternoon but service was slow. Half an hour after we ate our cakes the coffee arrived. Coffee was well balanced with great body.

    Walking into DandD is like walking into another world. I was totally mesmerized and at a loss of breath (seriously).

    Their coffee is flawless, fresh and has a full bodied flavor. They also supply to other specialty coffee shops in Brisbane.

    Their staff are impeccable... Read more
