The Green

Look, if you’re doing breakfast on James Street and haven’t sat among the lush foliage at The Green, you're doing it wrong. A stunning modern-industrial space bleeding into a gorgeous garden courtyard. The move here? Middle Eastern-inspired morning plates that absolutely deliver. Brisbane breakfast purists are borderline obsessed with the Beirut Benedict and those spiced waffles—think warm, sugar-coated perfection cut by tart labneh, fresh fruit, and a heavy pistachio crumble. Generous, vibrant, flavour-packed. You’ll see skillets of bubbling shakshuka flying past your table. The coffee is St. Ali, pulled so flawlessly you’ll probably order a second round before your food even lands. Those in the know drop by for that rare, hyper-comforting hospitality—the kind that makes you feel like you're eating right at your Sitty’s table. Pure Levantine warmth, right in the Valley. Yallah, get a table.
