Nodo Elizabeth St

Went for the first time and tried the HCT Toastie and what I think was a caramel donut. The toastie was excellent—super filling, packed with flavour, and the pickle on the side was a great touch. Easy 5/5. The “donut,” though, felt more like a cake. Still tasty, but not quite what I expected, so I’d give it a 4/5. Overall, I’d definitely come back—especially for that toastie (and the pickle!).

I tried the donut ‘cake’ and the baked cheesecake—both were absolutely delicious. The desserts were so good, I found myself wishing I had chosen this place for breakfast instead of another café. However, keep in mind that the store is quite small, so it can feel busy and cramped at times.

In Brisbane for the 2 days I was there I basically lived at this gluten free chain restaurant called NoDo! Which was a 100% gluten free bakery and cafe (with multiple locations). The first day I had the most amazing raspberry white chocolate donut, sausage breakfast sandwich and a passionfruit hibiscus iced tea! The second day I just had to stop by and grab some more donuts (for my trip to the beach), so I had the same raspberry one but also tried the fairy donut (which was incredible too)! Then I went back for lunch later the second day and had the most amazing chicken fried sandwich and mango matcha iced tea! I truly would go here everyday if I lived here!! Soooo good!!

Ordered a decaf cappuccino and a blueberry and lemon cheesecake donut here! Discovered that if you sign up online you get enough points to get a free coffee, so took advantage of that and got an extra shot as well. Coffee was absolutely delicious. The strength was just perfect for me, quite strong flavour and the hint of chocolate from the cappuccino topping was just so good. Of course keep in mind I had an extra shot, so can’t comment on how it would be in normal strength. Was not tooo big on the donut, made a mistake of getting the blueberry and lemon cheesecake donut since it had blueberry chunks inside, which I don’t enjoy. I did have a taste of the pistachio donut from a friend and that was really delicious so I think the cheesecake donut was just not for me. Their chocolate is delicious, I will try a donut with chocolate next time.

Delicious yummy and tasty gluten free donuts! Soft and moist. I ordered hazelnut strawberry, maple bacon and sticky date.

Surprised to find this chain coffee shop offers batch brew as well as Single Origin Espresso SOE (and it worked with milk coffee). The SOE only needs extra 50c. The barista skill is excellent, flat white milk perfectly frothed, the micro foam layer was sturdy and stayed very long. One of the best flat white in town. Staff was friendly and knowledgeable about the coffee they offer. Atmosphere is nothing extremely impressive. Few indoor seats and three benches outdoor.
