Crema Espresso — Restaurant in Greater Brisbane

We were at the mall shopping and my 10 year old son who has a disability was tired and thirsty and asked if we could go and grab a milkshake and sit and drink it in the cafe before we headed off home there was plenty of empty tables outside and inside so I chose a table inside my son sat at the table while I went to order the guy behind the counter asked what I would like I said a large banana milkshake please he said to have here or takeaway I said to have here the guy said with a tone as if it was a strange request “to have hear?” I assumed he was saying why would you have just a milkshake here I said that’s ok I’ll take it away he said you can have it here I said no take away just didn’t feel welcome in the cafe after that so we sat on the seats outside by the bank to drink the milkshake I won’t go back to that cafe again Can shove your rude service we could of gone to another cafe but chose your cafe instead the guy that served me when you said “to have here” did you think ok maybe she might just wanted to just sit at a table to have her drink instead of walking in the mall drinking it maybe I might order something else or if you actually looked up for a minute or two you would of seen I had a child with me and two shopping bags...

This café couldn’t be easier to find – it sits right inside the shopping centre, just in front of the game arcade, making it a handy stop whether you’re shopping, meeting friends, or taking a break with the kids. The location is spot-on for families, with a play area nearby that keeps little ones entertained while parents enjoy their coffee.

There are plenty of tables spread out, so even during busy times it’s not too hard to grab a seat. The setup makes it comfortable for both quick pit stops and longer catch-ups, with enough space to relax without feeling cramped.

The coffee itself is smooth and satisfying, the kind of reliable brew that keeps people coming back. It’s not just about convenience – the quality matches the easygoing atmosphere, so you leave feeling like you’ve had a proper café experience rather than just a rushed drink.

Locals and regular shoppers appreciate it as a family-friendly, practical option that still delivers on taste. Whether you’re juggling errands or just looking for a spot to rest your feet, this café is a welcoming choice that ticks all the...

Definitely want to start with a positive, the coffee is great. Tastes really nice, made really well. I’d be lying if I faulted it.

The food….something else. The order was wrong, which happens, mistakes happen and that’s okay. We got given an eggs Benedict and some kind of sandwhich with chips for breakfast. Honestly, probably the most disgusting eggs Benedict (or attempt at) that I have ever tasted. The bread wasn’t toasted, the bacon was stone cold and didn’t appear cooked. Whatever was used to make the hollandaise just ruined it. Not sure what happened there.

The toasted sandwhich, well that should be marketed as just a sandwhich featuring undercooked meat. The spinach on it tasted like seaweed and was damp, perhaps from being stored incorrectly. The chips with it tasted like they had been fried in old oil, the whole meal was pretty much inedible after a few bites. Based on this alone, I’d never suggest ordering food from there.

Coffee though, definitely worth giving them a go! Made...
