The server said don't worry about your name I'll remember you and bring your food straight over. So sweet. It's just coffee and cake but the service really makes it special. Big serves so one between two if you aren't hangry. Nice spot to people watch. Retro op shop right there to browse after

A perfect Sunday morning pick-me-up! I stopped by this café on a Sunday morning for a latte, and it was just what I needed to start my day. The coffee was rich, smooth, and expertly made—truly high-quality. Paired with the warm and attentive service, it made for a wonderful morning experience. Thanks to that perfect cup, I felt refreshed and ready to take on the day. I’ll definitely be back for more!

Good coffee, good people, good service, good price. I only ordered a humble large flat white, no froth, two shots in a take-away. And that is what I got only a few minutes later. I sat down to drink, to enjoy it. I got a take-away because the heat lasts longer. The food was tempting indeed however I had eaten an hour beforehand.

Very tasty coffee and banana bread, one of the tastiest I've eaten in the time I've been in Brisbane

Wake Up Specialty Coffee is hands down the best coffee shop that I've found in over two years in Brisbane. I'd go kilometres out of my way any day just for their service, and matcha or turmeric lattes. Then just go drink it in the park Gluten free, sugar free & vegan options abundant (check the green & purple tags in the cabinet). Expansive, eclectic menu options with all the classics, and the service here is consistently superb, pleasantly engaging. I love this place so much!

Best Coffee Shop in Brisbane CBD! If you’re looking for a coffee shop in Brisbane CBD that delivers both quality and atmosphere, this is the place to be. The coffee is rich and perfectly brewed, and the strawberry milkshake with whipped cream and drizzle was pure indulgence. I also tried their toasted sandwich with fresh chicken, avocado, tomato, and melted cheese packed with flavour and served hot on a crispy toast. The staff were friendly and quick, making it a great spot for a morning coffee run or a relaxed lunch break. The location in the heart of Brisbane CBD makes it super convenient whether you’re working nearby or just exploring the city. Highly recommend this café for anyone searching for great coffee, fresh food, and a welcoming vibe in Brisbane CBD. I’ll definitely be back!

Wake Up Cafe may be small, but it is absolutely wonderful! The cozy setup, with a few seating areas around, creates a charming and welcoming atmosphere. I ordered a coffee, and it arrived promptly, served by the friendly and attentive staff. The service was not only quick but also impressively neat and clean, reflecting their commitment to quality. The coffee itself was fantastic—rich, flavorful, and perfectly brewed. The ambiance was equally delightful, with great background music enhancing the overall experience. Thank you, Wake Up Cafe, for the excellent coffee and warm service. I will definitely be back for more!
