After a 10km walk along the beach which started sunny and ended in a tropical downpour I was glad that my highly tuned food finding skills were in fine form as I stumbled across this little gem in the heart of the Broadbeach mall. As the name suggests Box Espresso is in fact a box, a true hole in the wall tucked away next to The Envy Hotel and opposite Woolworths.
The organic smoothie menu was such a welcome sight, as was the presence of almond milk. The antioxidant smoothie was a winner for me with a combination of green tea, blueberries and banana. Protein powder was an optional extra. Box Espresso also stocks a range of paleo, vegan and raw wholefood treats, toasted sandwiches and organic coffee. There is a small outdoor area with a few tables but I recommend taking your chosen goodies to the beach and enjoying them there with a view. read more
