Welcome to Coffee Royal, a hidden gem situated at the Brisbane Airport's Domestic Terminal. If you're passing through Bribie Way, allow yourself to indulge in a delightful coffee experience that will elevate your travel journey from mundane to memorable.

Coffee Royal is more than just a café; it's a sanctuary for travelers seeking quality and warmth amid the airport hustle. The moment you walk in, you are greeted by friendly smiles, creating an inviting atmosphere that is often lacking in typical airport dining. As customer Richard Shanks eloquently put it, the service here is exceptional, with staff like Catalina going above and beyond to make your experience special. From the quick service to the genuine conversations, you’ll feel like you’ve found a slice of home away from home.

The café offers a diverse menu that caters to a variety of tastes. Begin your day with a robust cup of coffee, expertly brewed and served with a rush of energy – the Long Iced Black stands testament to this, providing a strong yet smooth experience without any bitterness, as noted by Mike and Josh C. Should you wish to indulge in breakfast, the Royal Big Breakfast is a must-try, featuring perfectly cooked components that promise satisfaction for even the most ravenous of appetites.

If you fancy something on the lighter side, consider the Smashed Avocado, which has its pros and cons, as highlighted by another customer. While not the most memorable dish, it comes paired with a generous serving of kindness from the staff, who make you feel valued regardless of your meal choice.

Come lunchtime or midday, the café transforms into a lively spot for spritzes and cocktails, offering refreshing options like the Aperol Spritz and the invigorating Espresso Martini – perfect for unwinding after an intense travel day or merely enjoying a brief escape. And if you enjoy gin, don't miss the opportunity to try out a selection from their premium range that includes Gordon's Premium Pink Gin and Whitley Neill Raspberry Gin.

For those who enjoy an eco-friendly touch, Coffee Royal proudly features a coffee cup recycling station, allowing you to sip your drink guilt-free while contributing positively to the environment. The commitment to sustainability is just one more reason why this café stands apart from the typical airport food options.

Whether you’re taking a breather in between flights, catching up with loved ones, or grabbing a quick bite before takeoff, Coffee Royal is the perfect spot to savor high-quality coffee and delectable food, all while surrounded by cheerful staff dedicated to enriching your travel experience. Don’t just take my word for it; as customer Kate Allen noted, it truly is an outstanding experience – a breath of fresh air at the airport hustle.

Next time you find yourself at Brisbane Airport, make sure to stop by Coffee Royal. Your taste buds will thank you!

OVERALL 4 1/2 Great place if you are at the Airport. **** Coffee - Long Iced Black. Strong and not bitter. **** Food - Royal Big Breakfast - Everything cooked ‘just right’, really enjoyed it ***** Service - Service was excellent, very friendly greeting and staff were on the ball. Food came out pretty quickly considering the large amount of orders they were handling at the time. ***** Value for Money - GREAT!! Value for money. Big brekky was a very good price for what you got as was the coffee.

The smashed avocado breakfast is just ok. I was ravenous and I don’t know why I thought it came with poached eggs. The meal was not that great BUT I am giving the girls that work here four stars because they were very nice to me. Plus bonus they serve Prosecco and i really needed one after a 16 hour international flight.

It was truly a breath of fresh air as I don't normally utilise the dining opportunities at airports. Coffee Royal staff member 'Catalina' demonstrated an absolutely amazing and unique customer service. It was certainly above average and truly exceptional. You are a credit to your company and the Brisbane Airport. Thanking for adding value to my travel experience.

I had breakfast while waiting for the flight. Eggs Benedict is my favorite food. I was happy to be able to eat it with coffee in the morning.

One of the best coffee places Brisbane domestic terminal. Located just on the right hand side when you come up off the escalator through security on Qantas domestic. Very nice and friendly, smiling service is the first thing to greet you which is so important. Coffee is prepared in no time and there are plenty of alternative milk options available. I loved the coffee cups recycling station! Very unique and innovative! More coffee shops should take example! I haven’t tried any food but here seems to be some good options of bar food and drinks and dedicated place to sit and enjoy it

Outstanding service, super friendly and very fast! Even though the airport was really busy, the staff went above and beyond with their customer service. Definitely not the usual rushed airport experience. Coffee was delicious too! Thank you so much,
