Nodo has opened a third location in South Bank much to the delight of local donut lovers, offering their delectable gluten-free treats along with wholesome brunch fare. 

Found on the ground floor of the ABC Building, this pocket-sized Nodo provides alfresco seating overlooking South Bank Parklands and the Wheel of Brisbane. 

The seasonal brunch menu, which is completely gluten-free, includes popular breakfast dishes such as eggs your way on housebaked sourdough with tomato caviar and salt cured egg, Eggs Benny with cured salmon on brioche with housemade herb hollandaise, and the quintessential Queensland breaky of crushed avo on black sesame loaf with Vegemite tograshi, camel feta and seasonal citrus. 

Otherwise, there are burgers on house made milk buns served with potato or sweet potato fries; from slow-cooked beef cheeks, and koji fried chicken, to charcoal crumbed mushroom burgers. 

Kids can nosh on baby waffles with coconut ice cream and seasonal fruit, or sourdough soldiers with scrambled eggs. 

Or you could just eat donuts for breakfast with fabulous flavours from blueberry lemon cheesecake and raspberry white chocolate, to nodo vovo and vegan cherry cola, to name a few. 

Coffee on pour is Wake Up Beautiful, roasted by Nodo, served along with rotating single origins. Besides coffee, there are specialty drinks like organic matcha, spiced chai, and turmeric coconut lattes, organic loose leaf teas, cold pressed juices, kombucha, and craft sodas.
