Sadly Blackstar has lost its mojo. Used to be our go-to. Then came the Rona and with it takeaways rather than cups. Maybe that's why suddenly the coffees we're both hot and weak (over milky). I appreciate that it may require a period of readjustment but after three tries they were still floundering. Hope they survive and we can try them out of the other side but too hot & weak coffee is not something to look forward to.

Came for the coffee and traffic permitting would return.

Closed. Empty Store.

Amazing in this fast moving world that Bunker is still going strong nearly 10 years after I first reviewed them. So many coffee places fail to survive but Marcus has spread his wings and opened in more locations. Whatever I said previously still applies- most amazing as since the floods in 2011 Milton has changed out of all recognition - old Queenslanders have been replaced by tower blocks. The morning rush queue out the door bears testament to how good they are at making coffee.

Really good coffee.

Surprised by the recent 5 ratings. Interesting choices and a good cup.

Excellent little window serving hatch in the wall of an old Queenslander on a back street. Interesting barista.

New Brisbane location of Kiwi roaster.

Pretty decent

Too weak. Two tries. Good coffee is much less science (scales and timers) and more love. Abandoned my first of the year. Explained it was too weak and got a "what do you mean " reply. Not for returning.

Working on site @Powerhouse this week and after a poor offsite experience I got chatting with a staff member about the current best coffee in the building. Some trepidation as no doubt staff will.change frequently but my flat white was spot on and not as expensive as the environment could demand. Sad it's closed on Monday!

I normally reply on a filter to find good and well reviwed coffee near me. Today I had to drop the filters a tad to find coffee in a walkable distance of my work site. So sad. Plenty of casual tourist traffic, noisy lunch crowd. Slow service - not sure of the cause but several apologies overheard. Finally the coffee, strength about right but bitter as! Overall memory - a strong smell of burning cheese from toastie preparation - normally would make me hungry but too burnt! 🔥 Going to re-enable my filters and will walk further next time. My score should filter End of the Road OUT for me.

Too hot too weak. New owner? Seems May has had a baby So sad for coffee

Good strong flat white. Interesting set up.

Weak brew

I first reviewed Bunker 6 years ago and they are still pulling great shots. This WW2 air raid shelter (the bunker) remains at the centre, a slight spread along the pavement and a few sun umbrellas make things more comfortable. The empire has grown to include John Mills Himself and regular market spots including Milton markets on Sunday mornings. Here's to the next 6 years!

Closed

Good coffee

Faultless

Delightful grungy vibe but good coffee with friendly service. Too long between visits.

Weak milk with a slight coffee tone. The bad barista is obviously back and so angry

Milky paradise. Self reviews?

The "bad" barista must have moved on. One of the few places where I can drink a flattie in the CBD on a Sunday. Thanks

Coffee a little warm and a little weak but once you have calibrated you can (I hope) get exactly what you want. Saturday afternoon open. Good people.

Tries hard but comes up short. Too weak or too hot. Muffin a. It raw in the middle.

Possibly our best coffee in Auckland so far (and there are no shortage of good places). Temperature and strength as requested. First place ever to transfer my wife's discarded half shot to mine. Such a simple act. We will be back.

Spoilt for choice in good coffee in Auckland we followed our noses to Three Beans. Seems to be open to match office hours in the complex. Excellent flatty. Friendly staff. Good vibe.

Still gone, anyone tried Richmond Station at number 18?

Really good coffee, experience damaged by the 12.5% service charge scam that has covered London like a pox.

A tad hot on the milk but still good cup.
