Just glorious coffee. Forget the shell servo for a brew. It’s here! At flatcap espresso. Get a flat white. Get a cap. The choice is yours. And the results will blow your mind. Conveniently located across the road from the famous Nudgee Beach Hotel

Don't know what they put in the cheese and tomato toasties.. but I find myself feeling empty and sad if I don't have one to start my day when I'm over that side of town. Is it hard to mess up 2 ingredients between bread?...Surprisingly- yes! I've sampled many toasties around the suburbs, and most - if not all - pale in comparison to flat caps version of this classic veggo friendly breaky on the go. Maybe it's the cheese? Maybe it's the friendly service or great coffee.. Idk? Just don't ever change the recipe because I might cry.. its just that good!! Officially addicted
