Shingle Inn - MOUNT OMMANEY

My local shingle inn and I love it. Staff are great and really know how to look after their customers. Can get busy on the weekends but the staff are really good at letting you know if there is an expected wait. Great coffee and smashing food - especially their Caesar salad! sweettoothbeliever.blogspot.com

Just stopped for a coffee and cake on Sunday afternoon. The counter staff were pleasant and I give the coffee about a 8 out of 10, but the accompaniments were mediocre. Both the biscuit and the carrot cake were a bit stale. The lady at the table behind us told the waiter that she ordered her sandwich on Turkish bread when he brought it to her, and so he took it back rolling his eyes - not her fault they messed up the order. Won't be back.

With Mt Omm as my "local" and many a breakfast at various places in the Centre, the one place I don't find myself going all that often is the Shingle Inn.  Not sure why, as when I do go I usually enjoy it.  Perhaps its because I still have such fond memories of the original on Edward St in the city, it's dark cool mysteriousness (well in my memory of over 30 years ago), and the outlets that have popped up in the various shopping centre's around Brisbane just seem a little wrong! Anyway, I found myself at Shingle Inn a few weeks back on my Friday off and decided to enjoy a late brunch there.  A mug of flat white and a bacon and egg wrap with a hash brown included in the wrap (you can have it as a side or inside the wrap) were my order and both were delicious.  I have to say the coffee here is always good - great flavour, nice and hot, not too bitter.  And the wrap was good - I usually have the hash brown on the side - so being a little adventurous was great and I really like the inclusion. I should go here more often!

Great breakfast of waffles with ice cream and caramel sauce, and an omelet with sweet potato, spinach, cheese and pinenuts. We had bowls of coffee too which were pretty decent! Get in early to get the comfy chairs up the back. australianfoodie.com
