Stalled Espresso

Brisbane


Incongruously nestled among auto-mechanic workshops, spacious Stalled sets an eclectic scene with its corrugated-iron, doors turned bar panels and vintage artworks. Complete with outdoor courtyard, it's a great spot to kick back with a coffee, hot chocolate, fresh juices or craft beer.

Cafe grub includes dairy-free bircher, morning tacos filled with avocado, feta, smoked bacon and scrambled egg, and daily salad specials.
