Ollie’s Espresso Bar is drawing attention in Nundah with its reputation for some of the area’s best coffee and a growing community of locals who call it their daily stop.
Early Starts and Local Convenience
Just steps from Nundah Station, the small cafe is winning praise for its smooth house blend, rotating filter coffee, and warm service. The espresso bar opens from 5:30 am on weekdays and 6:30 am on weekends, making it a go-to spot for commuters catching an early train.
The location on Station Street provides easy access with nearby street parking, while outdoor seating makes it a popular choice for dog owners taking a morning walk.
Coffee and Food Offerings
Customers consistently highlight the quality of the drinks, with the house blend prepared for milk-based coffee and rotating beans from guest roasters featured for filter brews.
A range of light food is available, including pastries, toasties, and the standout Milkman’s cookie served warm. Many visitors recommend the Mont Blanc and ham and cheese toastie as favourites.
Atmosphere and Service
The cafe’s design combines crisp white tiles, timber finishes, and a floral mural, giving the space a clean and modern feel. Seating inside and out provides options for a quick stop or a longer visit.
Reviews regularly mention the staff’s friendliness and ability to remember regulars’ names and orders, which adds to its community appeal. Customers describe the vibe as calm, cosy, and ideal for both relaxation and casual catch-ups.
A Community Hub
Local reviews often emphasise the welcoming environment as much as the coffee itself. Regular customers say Ollie’s has become part of their routine, offering both high-quality drinks and a familiar space where staff and patrons interact easily.
Its central position in Nundah Village has helped the cafe build a steady following from residents and workers who value both the product and the personal connection.
