Fifth Avenue Café is a little, leafy haven on bustling Stanley Street in East Brisbane, offering freshly-brewed Di Bella coffee and delicious all-day breakfast/lunch fare.  

The cute café provides seating inside and al fresco in a cosy courtyard where your four-legged bestie is welcome to join you for brunch.

The concise menu features all your favourite breaky dishes like eggs benedict, smashed avo on sourdough, savoury mince with poached egg on Turkish bread, and fluffy pancakes served with mixed berries, maple syrup and ice-cream.  

Alternatively, the café's signature loaded croissant is highly recommended - a flaky croissant stuffed with poached eggs, bacon, halloumi, spinach and avocado, with house-made hollandaise and a golden, crispy hash brown
