Bellissimo Coffee

This Brisbane-based coffee roaster boasts being the highest-awarded coffee roaster in Australia, and with reason. After winning the espresso championship trophy at the Sydney Royal Fine Food Awards, the year they were founded in 2009, Bellissimo has only improved and expanded. Now, they have three cafés across Brisbane, and supply beans (single origin and blends), wholesale or via subscription, all over the country. The most underrated part is that you can savour its flavour at Bellissimo’s Fortitude Valley café until it closes at 6pm. Be gone sad post-3pm Macca’s coffee runs. Time Out tip: Bellissimo’s solids menu isn’t your ordinary café food either. They’ve taken things up a notch with brunch plates, like house-made casarecce pasta with Sicilian-style trapanese pesto made with almonds, basil, dried tomatoes and pecorino. Yum. Address: Locations in Bulimba, Fortitude Valley, Coorparoo & Brisbane Airport
