Breakfast is the most important meal of the day, so why not do breakfast well with one of the best breakfast menu items ever created – French Toast. We’ve been all over Brisbane's best cafes in search of the best French toast, and we’ve narrowed it down to a short list of both classic flavours and some more adventurous combinations. Cherry ripe? Bagels? Strawberries and cream? There’s a French toast that meets every need, requirement, and sweet tooth.
Pawpaw Cafe
Pawpaw Café knows how to do French toast well with their ‘Brioche Stack’, and stack is the perfect way to describe the layered breakfast of Brioche French toast, mixed berry and vanilla mascarpone, seasonal fruit, roasted white chocolate, agave syrup and almonds. If that’s not enough, there’s the option of added bacon as well!
Kin + Co
This hole in the wall café continues to curve our sweet tooth craving, and their French toast is no exception. Kin + Co andwiched between two slices of brioche French toast is torched banana smothered in a dollop of crème patisserie and a rich salted caramel sauce.
