Come for the brunch, not the coffee. The Vietnamese iced coffee is the one order here that takes deliberate method.

A Shawlands brunch counter where the kitchen is the actual draw.

Frankie Coffee★★ Specialty

A plant-based espresso bar in Shawlands that runs an Antipodean menu and knows why each item is on it. Order the magic.

Spider Monkey Coffee Southside★★ Specialty

A roastery-backed café in Shawlands where the coffee knowledge runs deeper than the postcode suggests. The southside stop for anyone who cares what ends up in the cup.

Toro Coffee★★ Specialty

Rotating guest roasters with the espresso changing weekly and filter every day or two. The tasting notes are on the menu for a reason: this is a coffee bar where the sourcing is the point.
