Prices are extraordinary. A double shot espresso with a side of cold milk tops 5 dollars. Food is reasonable.

Gosh darn it, Toowoomba. Look at you. Getting all fancy and catching up with the times. Cafes like The Finch with their on-trend exposed brick walls, industrial-chic light shades and(so close it’s local) roasted beans by Fonzie Abbott, are turning Toowoomba into a place to spend a while rather than keep on driving. I stopped in to The Finch recently and it served as a great location for a catch up over coffee with my sister. There was a steady flow of customers throughout our hour and a bit there ranging from couples, mums and solo laptop warriors all seeking a decent cup of joe(we can assume). Of course, I couldn’t leave without ordering their lemongrass bánh mì. They claim to be Toowoomba’s only spot to order up this Vietnamese sandwich and from my local experience, I’d say they’re right. It was a great all round bánh mì — particularly if you’re new to the concept — but for me I would have loved the addition of pâté to give it that extra flavour and oomph. There’s ample sweets and standard café fare to please any number of appetites. Stop by and spend a while — it’s certainly running for top spot next to Firefly for me.
