The cafe's famous toasties are made using quality, locally-sourced ingredients such as free-range ham from Echo Valley Farm, free-range pulled pork and smoked chicken from Low N Slow Meat Co (Tingalpa), and the best cheeses, handmade falafels, and artisan breads supplied by a local bakery.

For sweet tooths, there's an array of fresh, flaky pastries delivered daily from local artisan bakers, as well as a range of scrumptious cakes including gluten-free and vegan options. 

Meanwhile, coffee aficionados are spoilt for choice with a delicious organic house blend plus rotating single origins, as well as quality cacao. The cafe also offers the best handcrafted and bean to bar chocolate range in Brisbane as well as Mörk specialty hot chocolate.

Need to know - Coffee Head is now licensed so customers can enjoy a sneaky afternoon beer or vino any day of the week with local craft beer and Aussie wines on offer.  

Nice to know - Coffee Head uses compostable packaging and coffee cups. Customers are encouraged to return their cups to the cafe where they'll get picked up and taken to a commercial composting facility.
