The Gold Coast is beginning to spawn a number of quality cafes and this is up there with the best. I ordered a weak piccolo and was pleasantly surprised with the result. The flavour was bold, nutty, and fresh. Service was prompt and friendly. And the cafe is large and spacious, moments walk from the waves of beautiful Broadbeach. A delight.

I was lucky enough to find out that my new workplace was just around the corner from this fine new establishment. What a pleasure it was to walk in and see such a choice on the menu board. Along with your standard fare espresso and milk based coffees, up there was Chemex, Syphon, and V60 as options. These guys know and love their coffee!

Certainly a sign of a decent cafe for me is the availability of a single origin. Toby's rotate these on a daily basis, unheard of anywhere else as far as I know. I have returned there several times this week, and the guys there know me by name already....

A serious delight and pleasure to visit for any coffee lover. Housed within Lavish, a homeware and gifts store with a feminine touch, which I would usually pass by, were it for a recommendation from a friend. Cassandra greeted our group and exuded her warmth and welcome, introducing us to her delightful little sitting within the store.

I ordered a piccolo, and was informed that this was the Cleanskin Saint blend. It had an exquisite and fresh flavour, probably one of the best coffees I have had for some time. Cassandra informed me that she went through an extensive tasting process to ch...

Definitely the best cafe on the Gold Coast - I was pleasantly surprised to discover this hidden gem amongst the seedy back-alleys of Surfers Paradise. Has a really homely feel to it, a pretty decent menu, and average coffee. If you want outstanding coffee, best choices are No Name Lane in Broadbeach or Blackboard Coffee in Varsity Lakes, but these have nothing in terms of ambiance on Black Coffee Lyrics.

Really not impressed. Has a huge sign "Award Winning Coffee in 2010" which sends off warning bells for me - those who speak the loudest don't usually live up to their exclamations. I ordered a latte and sent it back because it was too weak. I was then given an Italian espresso blend as the base for another latte, and an extra shot on the side. I usually enjoy a medium-bodied coffee, and yet needed to use much of the extra shot just to add a little body. Disappointing.

You gotta check this place out. Reminds me of great cafes in Melbourne - minimalist funky design and people serious about their coffee. Speaking of which it\'s just divine.
