Little Barista Espresso Bar — Restaurant in Gold Coast City

Great coffee compared to most places around the GC.

My Mum enjoys the coffee here and I've found that a Mocha tastes like a Mocha too... Which is a harder thing to find than you might think around the GC.

Staff are friendly and helpful.

One day I wanted a smoothie but I was unsure what it would taste like with the dragonfruit. The girl let me know it's not offensive in flavour and gave some suggestions if I wanted to change the drink at all.

I took the girls suggestion and the drink was delicious.

I haven't had any of the food here I don't think, but my Mum seems to think it's pretty good! They have savoury vegetarian muffins I think? Check the picture on their shop page though... The Menu may change.

It's a nice location with a nice breeze, not too hot or cold and it also has a small room for aircon or blocking wind. The place is very small, but it works for the customers and it feels personal!

It's on a fairly quiet intersection and for being on a corner of 2 roads it feels very calm and quiet. One of the nicer intersections around lol!

It's just good to find a Cafe which makes a better coffee than a petrol station. Seriously....

I'd just like to see a bit of a spring cleaning and some declutter! Otherwise everything seemed above board and hygienic in the prep areas.

In the side room (Escape the elements room) there was some stray dust, scuffs and standard everyday grime buildup that could be easily done away with using some elbow grease. Cleaner than most peoples houses for sure, but I expect eating establishments to be immaculate and not just better than somewhere else.

Thanks for the nice smoothie and good coffees!

I'm glad my Mum...

We've tried several brunch places in the area now and this one was just ok. Their french toast bread was tough, chewy and a bit burnt, it's the wrong kind of bread used for french toast. Their poached eggs weren't drained enough, all the poaching water soaked the toast (making it soggy) and other food items on my plate. They didn't serve any butter with the toast. They don't make their own hollandaise sauce, but I get it, their kitchen is just a tiny hole in the wall, so I think they'd be better for just grab n go's or a quick simple no frills breakfast/lunch. The smoothie I got was delicious though and not too sweet and they have a cute little nook with indoor seating as well as outdoor...

The service that my partner and I received from the girl with red hair and eyeliner was appalling; deadpan face, interrupting me while I was speaking, getting annoyed when I answer her questions and constantly having to repeat my order. Tried my best to be nice but the longer it took to order two coffees and two toasties the more uncomfortable the experience was. And as we walked away with our order she was even on her phone 💀. The experience was saved by a beautiful lady that swept in and thanked us, even bringing out our coffees! Had a shitty morning so was slightly redeemed by the second girl (thank you). First girl needs to learn some customer experience, coming from a...
