Visiting The Little Pantry is like dropping into your mate's place for a cuppa. An easy stroll from James Street's high-end shops, it’s got all your break-time needs sorted, from the extensive food choices to the laden bookshelves lining one wall.

Bag the best seat in house – a grand velvet couch overlooking the quiet streets of New Farm – and you might never want to leave.

Sip on coffee from Brisbane’s Bear Bones Espresso, organic tea, fresh house-made juice or cold-pressed creations from HRVST ST. All-day breakfast options cater to both the hung-over and health-conscious alike: try the scrambled egg wrap, fluffy pancakes with a choice of toppings, or a chia seed pudding.

Lunchtime choices include a roast pork sanga with homemade slaw, veggie burger and seasonal soup. There’s also a well-stocked cabinet of fast and fresh fare, from banana bread to pre-made sandwiches.

This is one plentiful pantry.
