2 Reviews on “Early Birds Espresso”
We were having lunch across the road from here so we decided a coffee was in order first up. What attracted my eye was the homely verandah setting complete with bougainvillea. Also the quirky & brightly coloured gift shop attached to the coffee kiosk. The lady barista was a friendly individual who gave us double shots & the flat whites were pretty robust & smooth
Are you an early bird? Do you like espresso? And finally, do like to shop for clothes and gift ideas? Hmm, I think I know what you’re thinking. What if I don’t like half of what you’re harping on about? Simple – no matter. Its all about the beans, man – and if espresso is your cup, then this is definitely a coffee for you. Well, for me, anyway – this accidental find – a coffee bar tucked away at the front of the shop that houses it – is absolutely outstanding.With a bit of a twist, I may add – I go to order a cappuccino and a latte, and I really am fearing the worst as the girl serving tells me ‘sorry, is lite milk’ ok? I’m literally like, ‘Ermmmmmmmm…. go on then.’ I really wanted to say no as this is a massive ‘no no’ for me, but I just didn’t have the heart. She was kind enough to offer a further discount of 50 cents on the coffee, which no-one would expect or demand, so hats off for good customer service in a bad situation. I add, she said ‘it never happens’ and I can believe that. We all have our ‘far out’ days…Anyway, was it any good? Golly gosh, what a jolly surprise was this one! Beautifully made espresso – strong but not bitter – and beautifully blended milk. I couldn’t believe this quality coffee could be delivered from non whole milk. So to imagine a coffee with whole milk from Early-birds is a dream I intend on making a reality at a later date! The cappuccino was nice too, with a nice balance of coffee and chocolate.The shop has an outdoor seating area, menu’s at the front, with a range of biscuits on sale, and there are several size options available. They also have a charity mini sack pack for the homeless ($5 a go) which is a good cause and nice touch. The service is genuinely friendly, also.One of Clayfield’s finest – little known about it, Earlybird’s makes a huge impact, any time of the day (that its open!).
