Blue Bear Coffeehouse

Classic Brissy corner shop charm meets top-tier brunching. Housed in an old converted store right on James Street, Blue Bear Coffeehouse nails that breezy, sun-drenched Queensland aesthetic. Wide footpath awnings. Massive front windows. A constant stream of walk-ins grabbing dialed-in espresso. Brisbane brekkie fiends consistently point to this spot for its massive, wallet-friendly portions and a seriously impressive gluten-free game—celiac diners are fully sorted here. But the real clincher? The insanely hospitable crew. We're talking next-level care—think staff handing out blankets on crisp mornings to keep you cozy outside. Grab a table under the shade, order a cracking cuppa, and sink into one of the most heartwarming cafe experiences in New Farm.
