Milkbox Coffee & Tuckshop

MILKBOX COFFEE AND TUCKSHOP HAS PERMANENTLY CLOSED.

A school tuckshop designed for adults, Milkbox Coffee and Tuckshop delivers prime cups of coffee and takeaway food along Alfred Street in Fortitude Valley.

Built inside a minimalist designed shipping container, Milkbox offers the comforts of school tuckshop food, with a modern and ‘grown-up’ twist.

The hole-in-the-wall style café is delivering Sydney’s finest Gabriel coffee and a quality breakfast and lunch menu.

Whilst Milkbox is suitable for takeaway food and drink, diners can choose to take a seat outside the shipping container on one of the herringbone timber tables. Surrounded by lush, green potted plants, the café creates a tranquil space in the otherwise concrete jungle of Fortitude Valley.

Milkbox creates each of their dishes fresh, on-site ensuring food is of its’ finest quality. Diners can purchase an array of comfort toasties, classic raisin toast and Brisbane’s favorite smashed avo. Along with delicious baguettes, freshly made salads, home baked muffins and biscuits, croissants and even takeaway chia puddings.

The baguettes and toasties are a go-to for breakfast diners, as they are packed with delicious fillings such as pastrami and brie cheese. Those who prefer a healthier option opt for the chia pudding, made with layers of natural yoghurt, chia and fresh mango. Served in a large takeaway cup, it’s almost two breakfasts for the price of one.

Milkbox is known for stocking renowned, specialty Gabriel coffee, delivered to diners in mugs, or takeaway cups for those on the go. Single origin coffee is also enjoyed by diners.

Need to know – Limited metered street parking is available within the area. 

Nice to know – There is a seasonal rotating menu. Dogs are welcome!

*Opening Hours correct at time of visiting in March 2017.
