The Hideout Coffee House — Restaurant in Greater Brisbane

Today I visited the cafe, I was looking forward to having my usual Vietnamese Omelette, which unfortunately has been taken off the menu. When I asked re: omelette the guy american went into some spiel about it being on menu for 10 months. No problem I changed to the new green omelette now on menu, unfortunately this omelette does not rate, nowhere same standards as the Vietnamese omelette. I also ordered 3 elderflower drinks, on observation there was a young girl who was either sick/unhappy who was candidly using her fingers to squash the mint and put into our drinks along with cucumber, I'm not 100% as to whether her fingers were actually touching the liquid in our glass. Having worked in hospitality, I would have thought the correct protocol - here was to either use tongs etc or gloves, she clearly was not using either. The drinks were then just left on the counter, I went up and asked if these were our drinks and was told yes and I delivered them to our table. The food arrives and there were two kids waffles, the waffles were obviously a whole waffle cut in half with a small scoop of ice cream, something that was suppose to resemble strawberries which were not tasty & the waffles were slightly burnt. So the kids received a half waffle, when I asked the american is that a whole waffle he started to waffle on and say well technically........I switched off at this point. There was nothing farm to table about these waffles, I paid $10 each for this appalling food. I visit this cafe frequently as I am a local, the kids food is overpriced for what is received on the plate. Unfortunately it will be a long time between drinks before I return to this cafe. The service was half hearted and the food was inconsistent with previous times visited. OVERALL NOT A GOOD...

What a little gem of a cafe this is! A friend of mine had been here before and when I was searching for somewhere near her she said oh Yes it was fabulous! I then had to experience it for myself.

The laid back 'being in a tree house vibe' with all the natural wood shelving and table settings and hanging plants is a wonderful introduction and it just keeps on getting better.

The food offerings in the display cabinet and on the front counter make you salivate from the start...and then you read the menu once seated! Hard to decide between the all day brekky or lunch options..I'll be back to try more that's an absolute certainty as my meal was soooo delicious. The staff are super friendly and offer help on meal choice if you simply can't decide!

I chose the avocado on sourdough with added feta, (one of my all time fav options). This one came with a delicious spiced pumpkin addition with a lemony, tangy sauce on the side with a few pomegranate seeds and a dried orange segment. Flavours galore. Can't rave enough about this dish. And can I just add, when you ask for added feta...you actually get added feta. It seemed like half a block of feta..such good portion sizes and value for money.

This cafe is surprising large with plentiful and different table settings inside and out. A cosy lounge area exists as well. I would highly recommend it...I don't think it...

This is a great local café that I have had the pleasure of checking out since moving to the area. I had the big breakfast, firstly let me say the 3 hash browns are very generous in their size and are fluffy pockets of goodness that warm the soul. I had a very unexpected but welcome surprise when I bit into the tomatoes as I was expecting the usual café standard napalm approach but instead found these had been chilled which brought fresh acidic flavour bombs that cut through the richness of the rest of the dish. The egg was fried to perfection with the yolk melting over the hash when cut into and the coffee is obviously brewed with care and attention.

The staff were super friendly and give the place a homely feel. I'm looking forward to going back again and also checking out their harvest...
