Good things come in small packages, right? Well, Little Corner Cafe has raised the stakes as they aren't just a good thing, they are a wonderful thing.

When driving along Dickson St in Wooloowin, it's hard to miss the bright yellow chairs outside of the appropriately named, Little Corner Cafe. The outdoor dining area is sun-drenched and is the perfect place to enjoy a coffee catchup in the cooler weather. Inside the Little Corner Cafe is a small yet smart space. It allows seating for a reasonable number of people and the artwork pays homage to the history behind the suburb.

On any given morning the modest cafe plays host to a large amount of guests enjoying great coffee and simple food. The specials board is filled with well priced meals such as the chicken quesadilla with fresh shredded chicken, cream cheese, avocado and sliced sundried tomatoes between tortillas toasted, served with a side of salsa. The quesadilla was filling yet a light choice. The Texan spicy slow cooked beans, herb sour cream and parmesan on sourdough is another delicious option.

However, a standout menu item is the espresso smoothie with honey and yoghurt. It makes its poor cousin, the classic iced coffee, look dismal in comparison. Although there was a little wait for food, Little Corner Cafe nailed friendly service.

This cute cafe bursting with character and history is in prime position for northsiders making their commute into the city or to nearby train stations. The bright atmosphere, splash of colour and good coffee will make your mornings a little easier.
