Overview
It's a comfort food staple and a favourite of dairy lovers, and it needn't only be on the menu when you're in your own house. That humble dish: the cheese toastie. When everyone's go-to dairy product is placed between two slices of bread, then warmed to its edible oozing point, it becomes a gooey force that cannot be contained — and it'll soon be on offer at Melt Brothers' new Chermside location.
Brisbane's dedicated cheese toastie joint first opened its doors back in 2016, starting in the CBD, then also launched a now-closed Mt Gravatt venue. It currently operates in two inner-city spots: the Myer Centre and Post Office Square, until its Westfield Chermside food court site starts serving up sandos from Monday, January 9.
Clearly, this chain's love of the best thing you can do with sliced bread knows no bounds — so it's spreading. Bringing Melt Brothers' dairy-filled delights to the shopping centre's first level, underneath the cinemas, the Chermside location will dish up the same delicious menu while also ensuring that northsiders don't have to hit the CBD to live out their melted cheese dreams.
This is the first time that the brand has headed to this side of town, and it'll trade seven days a week at its new digs. That includes sangas till 8.30pm during late-night trading on Thursdays, plus bites till 7pm on Fridays.
Cheese fiends can grab all-day fare like the three-cheese Mouse Trap, and the bacon and egg-filled Morning Glory, or stop by for a M.C. Cheesy (with macaroni and cheese).
Melt Brothers also does non-cheesy items, including avo toast with or without eggs or smoked salmon, bagels, hash browns, and fries. Clearly, the mozzarella sticks keep the theme going.
Find Melt Brothers' new store at Westfield Chermside, Gympie Road, Chermside, on level one beneath the cinemas, from Monday, January 9 — open from 7am–5pm Monday–Wednesday, 7am–8.30pm Thursday, 7am–7pm Friday, 8am–5pm Saturday and 9am–4pm Sunday.
