Andonis Cafe & Bar, Chermside

Andonis Cafe & Bar in Chermside brings specialty coffee and all-day breakfast to 621 Gympie Road, with a menu that combines contemporary Australian café food and a touch of Greek influence. The website describes its venues as bright, welcoming spaces for food lovers, brunch regulars and customers visiting with their dogs, making this a flexible option for a relaxed meal, a quick bite or a coffee catch-up.

The breakfast menu is broad and generously styled. Standouts include the Andonis OG Big Brekkie, with chorizo, bacon, halloumi, a house corn fritter, hash browns, avocado and other breakfast staples, and the Loaded Smashed Avo, served with poached eggs, feta, hollandaise and double hash browns.

For a later meal, the offering extends into burgers, sandwiches, bowls and Greek-inspired plates. The Greek Yiros and Souvlaki Plate bring lamb or chicken, pita, salad, fries and tzatziki to the table, while the Lemon & Herb Grilled Barramundi provides a lighter-sounding choice. The venue’s signature-style dishes include the Wagyu Magic Sando, Gym Gain’z Bowl and Burger for the Gram. Sweet options are substantial too, with loaded Biscoff pancakes and the Bueno Heaven Belgian waffle among the desserts. Coffee spans espresso-based drinks, chai, hot chocolate, iced options and specialty beverages, alongside smoothies, shakes, juices and frappes.

Andonis began as a local café and has grown into a wider Brisbane café group, with the website listing 12 locations across Brisbane, Logan and the Gold Coast. Its stated focus is on good food, coffee and warm hospitality, with spaces intended to feel familiar and comfortable. Chermside suits brunch dates, family meals and casual gatherings, while the all-day format also works for solo coffee stops. A dedicated doggy menu and the venue’s dog-friendly positioning make it particularly useful for customers looking to bring their four-legged companions along.
