We dropped into this coffee-lovers haven as we were on the south-west side of town and eating places for lunch are pretty sparse. My mum also was really keen to try it as many of her workmates get drive-thru caffeine from here to kick-start their weekday mornings.
The shop is situated in a block of units in the middle of an industrial estate, but don't let that put you off. The proprietors have obviously taken care with the decor to make the place welcoming and there's all sorts of complicated equipment on show, so you know they take their coffee seriously.
As the Roasters is not really a cafe, there is not a large food menu but there was enough on offer to tempt. Apart from the usual cakes and slices, the more substantial offerings in the cabinet were breakfast items like toasties. However, there are 4-5 wrap or open grill options if you want a proper meal with your incredibly nice coffee.
We waited quite a while for mum's food, which was unusual as we were one of only two parties eating. Being a Sunday lunch, I image their peak times are mornings. My toast need and garlic mushroom open grill was delicious, being served with plenty of Dijon hidden underneath. Mum reported her cheese and tomato toastie to be fine, and the coffee pretty good. I had a pot of tea which the barista made using an odd machine, so I enjoyed the novelty of that.
I recommend this place to people wanting to seek out next-level coffee in Toowoomba. Breakfast here would be adequate, however don't expect beautiful views or bacon and eggs! read more
