Crafted Coffee Co.

The Verdict

You guys went wild when we broke news of the Gold Coast’s first dedicated espresso martini bar, and rightly so. So, if you haven’t acted on your caffeine-fuelled urges yet, now is the time. Sure you can sneak a cheeky martini to boost you through your shopping mission, but we think an after-dark visit to Crafted Coffee Co. at The Kitchens is the best introduction. Frock up, settle in and prepare to work your way through the menu, starting with a Dark and Stormy espresso martini (with Kraken Rum and Kaluha), followed by the XOX (with Café Patron and vanilla vodka). Oh, and perhaps forget about sleeping tonight.
