Yelpers, if you have been following my reviews over the past few days you will have noticed that I…read morehave discovered some mighty fine little hang outs in Ipswich. Yep, no word of a lie. Fourthchild is one of these great hang outs and boasts such a Melbourne-esque feel as soon as you walk through the doors. Upon entering it's the simple but gorgeous layout that strikes you first about this little joint. There are fabulous small details such as cakes being served in star shaped liners and orange juice in a jar with a paper straw that makes me love Fourthchild is the bees knees when it comes to delicious baked treats. My personal fave is the flourless mini chocolate cake, or I hear the carrot cake is also a winner. Their coffee is worth boasting about, with the Barista clearly capable and experienced on the coffee making front. It's my understanding that Fourthchild also does a mean breakfast/brunch on the weekends and is the only place I know who sells organic, iced earl grey tea. So swallow your pride, and make a trip to the Switch for some Fourthchild action. It will not disappoint. Bare in mind that it's a hit with the locals so best to get in early or late to avoid crowds.

Kudos to her also for deciding to open something this hip and unheard of in Ipswich, "Just because I felt like it." Not as busy as most Brisbane cafes on a Sunday morning it was steadily filling up when we arrived around 10:30am. It had been on my list to visit for a while so friends and I piled in the car for a Sunday road trip to "The Switch" There were five breakfast items to select and unintentionally we had five people dining who all chose individual items. Don't expect many frills from this menu. It is simple and removes any temptation for decision overload (although when looking at their cake cabinet it may be a different story). They make most of their goods on site and it shows (in a good way). The bread for my scrambled eggs, mushrooms and spinach was more like a damper- it was soft in the centre, fresh and the right amount of crunch in the crust. The meal was good but lacked a little flavour for my liking. The eggs could have been improved with some simple seasoning or herbs. Of all the meals we sampled the best would have to have been the "frenchie" french toast with banana, salted caramel and honey comb. Surrounded by tempting sweets and cakes I'm going to take a stab in the dark that this is what fourthchild excels at, rather than run of the mill breakfasts. Still, all in all, minus the delay in our coffees arriving to the table it was a pleasant out-of-town cafe breakfast. Should I be local, I'd be all over this place like a rash.

Even though Nourish is one of the newer cafes in Ipswich, with it's popularity, it's hard to…read morebelieve that this place hasn't already been reviewed. Great fit out with indoor and outdoor dining - outdoor being either out the front on the foot path, or out the back in the courtyard. The food is really good with a good selection, including acai bowls, eggs benedict, and other great choices that I can't remember right now! A great addition to the ever growing Ipswich foodie scene :) One thing to note if you enjoy your tea/coffee with soy milk - they use Bonsoy, which seems to be a bit of a polarising choice as some people either love it or hate it. I have mine with full cream, so I don't mind :)

Pleasant cafe in the Top of Town Ipswich. I stopped in on a…read moreFriday night of a stroll along the main street markets, and was pleasantly surprised. There is a small selection of good quality food on offer, not at all the usual quick take away meal. The coffee was good, served quickly and with a smile.. What I like about this little cafe is there is a selection of pantry items on sale as well. Mainly spices, flavoured oils, pastas, herbs, chutneys, chillies and jams. It was an absolute delight walking in and noticing the natural flow of the cafe, the items for sale, the were place nicely on shelves that did not over shadow the products. It didn't feel like you were walking into a store (Cole's or Woolies) at all, just a natural feel. Then moving onto the cafe at the back of the store.. There was a bench and stools to sit and eat or read a book on the inside of the cafe as well as sidewalk tables to sit and enjoy a light meal with friends outside. I would stop at this cafe again.
