Contessa By Blackstar Coffee - Brisbane

Busy little coffee shop with small selection of breakfasts. The coffee was good. Bold coffee flavour. Just how how l like it. service was quick. Great atmosphere.

I've been to this coffee shop couple of times over the last few weeks and I will probably be back again.<br/ <br/ The shop itself gives you a hipster vibe with friendly staff and cheap coffee $3.70 for a large long black).<br/ <br/ The coffee is also good, my long black was strong and not too acid nor too bitter, probably one of the long black I enjoyed the most around brisbane.

The one and only keeping it real in the CBD. If you want to feel alive go here. If you want to know what's going on in music that counts, go here. If you want to die a slow, painful boring death, go somewhere else. Oh yeah, and the coffee is unparalleled. Strong, smooth and as sure as a freight train in the night.

We had a tip off on Twitter about Contessa by Blackstar in the Brisbane CBD and added it straight on our Coffee Shop Target List as a must visit. There had been lots of action on social media about the new venue but nothing quite prepared us for the unique slice of West End funk in the city. Somehow the ‘vibe’ of the original Blackstar cafe permeates its younger city dwelling sibling. The A4 photocopy wallpaper, furniture on wheels, projected menu, subdued lighting provides the new ‘funk’ with the familiar links...

One of my favorite coffee haunts in the CBD they make great coffee. I love their selection of beans too. Worth the stroll if you have the time are nearby. It's a cute little Melbourne hipster style fit out with cute guys serving.
