Hop Thru

Whether you’re catching a show at the Empire Theatre or browsing portraits at the Toowoomba Regional Art Gallery, our city has so much to offer! But between all the sightseeing, you’re bound to work up quite the appetite. From a small bite for brunch to a large, filling lunch, there’s plenty of cafés in Toowoomba to try.

First, you’re going to want a nice, caffeinated beverage to wake you up in the morning. Our coffee shops host a large range of coffees, using both arabica and robusta beans; there’s varying levels of bitterness to suit all your taste preferences. Your coffee can be extracted in a range of different ways including the standard espresso, cold brew, nitro, French press, drip coffee and more. You’ll also find your favourite cold coffees including iced lattes, mochas or long blacks. Add an extra layer of sweetness by adding vanilla, hazelnut, caramel or sugar syrup. If you’re lactose intolerant, no problem! You’ll find plenty of alternative milks including oat, almond, coconut, macadamia, lactose free and soy.

Next, you’ll probably want something to pair your coffee with. Whether you’re starving or only a little peckish, there’s plenty of options. Browse our cabinet display for a range of sweet and savoury snacks including sandwiches, wraps, croissants, doughnuts, tarts, muffins, cakes, slices and more. Enjoy a breakfast classic such as bacon and eggs, eggs benedict, pancakes or French toast. To cool down, try and acai, mermaid or smoothie bowl.

If you’re not looking for a coffee or a meal, our cafés host a wide range of other beverages. This includes mocktails, soft drinks, juices, smoothies and more. To satisfy your sweet tooth, treat yourself to one of our milkshakes in a range of flavours including chocolate, strawberry, caramel, vanilla or, in some coffee shops, even lime! You may even find a licenced café, offering beer, wine, spirits and cocktails.
