    Crazy good art for a piccolo. Location is an old style building in Toowoomba CBD. Well done, easily the best coffee I've had in Toowoomba.

    The breakfast was outstanding. The staff were friendly and the service from them, and the chef's was great (Chef's serve food; since when?). A little salty, but I didn't mind; awesome food!

    The coffee was ok. Their set up is very high quality. The coffee was ashy, but still drinkable... Read more

    Toowoomba isn't exactly know for good coffee, but that is slowly changing. Enter the newest kid on the block: firefly. I recently came back to Toowoomba to visit my parents and came across this place. I had a cappuccino takeaway one night and went back again to dine-in today.

    This Cafe was quite the busy breakfast spot amongst a relatively quiet city centre this Sunday. Upon seeing the resting cyclists seated put front with their bikes and coffees, I knew there must be something inside that was drawing the locals.

    The Southern Blend they are using at the... Read more

    Great coffee from this place, all the right gear and the baristas know what they're doing. What I was served was on par with the best places in Brisbane.

    Breakfast was good. Don't do eggs scrambled, only poached or fried??? Was a good meal, little bit small.

    Came for the coffee though and all the aspects were there for a great cup. Unfortunately when they arrived I could tell before the first sip were were in for a watery cup as the... Read more

    Just an update review - the coffee has gotten even better, and a menu refresh has come along that's just lovely.

    Whenever I am in Toowoomba this is the only place I will go to get my fix. Jess and the guys pull great coffee with attention to detail. They know their stuff and have obviously worked hard to get the best results. The coffee here tastes soooo good on a cold Darling Downs morning. You will not be... Read more

    I always look forward to visiting Firefly when I am in town seeing family. The food is wholesome and well priced, and the coffee and hot chocolates are delicious!

    Not only is the food used with fresh and local ingredients but is made to suit a seasonal menu which surprises me every time I go. Cold drip coffee is to die for, and I find the coffee is of a constant outstanding quality

    Wow!!
    Enter the newest player in Toowoombas coffee scene. It is what we have been waiting for. Finally baristas with passion for coffee!

    The food at Firefly is fantastic and unique and the coffee is pretty good. We usually get the cold drip coffee which is really good. The only things I don't like about this place is their weird closing times - I've lost count of the times I've come for coffee after work and they're closed. I would... Read more

    After just moving here we tried Firefly Coffee to see if it lived up to our Coffee standard. The Organic Flavour of the Coffee was lovely and the milk nice and creamy. My only complaint was,I like my coffee Hot! not warm like a lot of places serve.On Sunday we went in and there was a different Girl... Read more

    Firefly is OK if you are just going to catch up with a friend for a quick coffee. It's only a small, crammed cafe so you wouldn't take a group of people there. For what's actually on the plate the meals are quite expensive - I ordered Mushroom Risotto Balls and got just four which were rolling... Read more

    Double Mac was very good, slightly sweet and looked great too. Muesli was delicious!

    Today, after paying for my drink, and presenting my stamp card (loyalty card, where you buy 6 and get the next drink free), they suddenly tell me they decided to stop making them available to their customers. That's fine. But then they tell me, that I can't finish my current card out, despite... Read more

    The Indie atmosphere is quite cute but I have had 3 coffees here, the first 2 were average and the third was undrinkable! It left an ashtray aftertaste with every sip. It's one thing to have all the latest brewing equipment and fancy single origin coffees but at the end of the day if the coffee... Read more

    My first experience drew me in and always calls me back when I'm in need of an outstanding coffee. Firefly uses an amazing blend of coffee for the price you pay; this coffee is the kind I would expect to pay top dollar for.

    And the food is the best I've had from any cafe or restaurant... Read more

    For anyone who is hanging out for a superb, real coffee, in a real cafe, this is the place. Really, they totally get it and have completely nailed it.

    Probably the best coffee we have ever had, anywhere.

    We are dreadful coffee snobs, have hung out in coffee shops... Read more

    This place is just a pleasure. The owner is incredibly friendly and approachable. It has nice little quirks (small objects instead of table numbers... e.g. house table, clown table, dice table etc) without being pretentious. The place just feels right.

    The coffee is great. I won't go... Read more
