Little Clive

Little Clive Cafe is a welcome addition to Annerley, attracting foodies far and wide with a top-notch seasonal menu including breakfast fare, classic burgers and blackboard specials.  

Located on the corner of Clive St and Ipswich Rd, Little Clive is a cute café with wee white tables filling the floor space, monochrome cushions strewn along the bench seating and a shaded deck offering light breezes.  

The menu has something for everyone (vegetarians included) from healthy fare like the avocado and feta plate with coriander, chilli, lime and macadamia dukkah or grilled haloumi with mushrooms, kale, pistachio crumble and poached eggs to sinfully delicious brioche French toast with raspberry cream and caramelised bananas or chocolate fudge pancakes with popcorn, fairy floss and fresh berries. 

Lunch, served from 10:30am, includes burgers - wagyu beef, twice cooked pork belly and soft shell crab - served with  a side of sweet potato fries, and salads like an assorted beetroot salad with summer greens, walnuts, chevre and vinaigrette, smoked chicken with mango, avocado, broccoli and pomegranate, and grilled bugs watermelon vodka gazpacho with mint, feta and black olive salsa.

Little Clive also provides a selection of homemade sweets such as freshly baked muffins, salted caramel tarts and gluten free brownies.  Vivo coffee is on pour, or choose from loose leaf tea, cold press juice and smoothies.
