A little on the pricey side but the food is bomb & well worth it. Husband always gets the brekie wrap & the chicken burger. I can recommend their chicken Caesar pasta salad also. Will return to try other items on menu. It’s like a lunch bar for local workers in the area

The big brekky is always great, and the hot box food is never too dry

Best value for money I’ve found in the wacol area so far. $10 fir a Turkish full of lots if chicken, avo, cheese, tomato and lettuce. Only slight negative was chicken was so thick it didn’t heat all the way through.
Potato scallops are the best I’ve found in the area. Well most if Brisbane. Real home made, thin cut and battered.

Visited the shop after lunch so there were no other customers. The food was great. The people there were very friendly and kind. The lady on the counter had a very nice aura and an overly sweet smile 😃. She asked me what I wanted. I asked for the menu, and she jokingly said, “Here’s the menu” (*pointing to herself*), then we both laughed. 😅. She said she could make all the vietnamese food, so I ordered their rice paper roll. It was delicious, especially with their hoisin sauce. I also tried the fried dimsim, and it was also good. The lady was super kind and gave me a piece of the pork crackle. It was tasty and crispy. I love this take-away shop and I will recommend this to my colleagues. There are plenty of parking spaces outside the shop and outside the gate of the compound. I just wish they had bigger and clearer sign boards that you can see even on a distance (this is for new customers 🥰). Overall experience was superb!

Great food choices. I like their spring rolls. Healthy and fresh. I pair them with coffee and I’m good for the day.

Couldn’t imagine any better place to have breakfast, – it’s just amazing having animals around, being around people that truly love and care for animals. The menu is fantastic, it has full breakfast options as well as quick bites. The coffee is beautiful, the atmosphere is fantastic and the staff are passionate and caring. Very clean place, fast service and the opportunity to get a furry friend for yourself or become a foster carer for an animal. Even coffee for the dogs is! available Highly recommended!!!!

As cat lovers, our family ventured to Black Cat Café in search of cute cats, pats and cuddles. Unfortunate BCC doesn’t offer any of this. It is part of the RSPCA which predominantly houses dogs.
There is a cat play area which was not occupied on our on visit.
Notwithstanding, the food is delicious, reasonably priced and staff friendly. A great cause to support.

Love coming here for vegan options, although they seem to have changed their menu (shown in pic) and now have a few less items (no big vegan breakie), but had the avo on GF toast, add hash browns, which was yummm. Vegan banana bread is delish too.

Such yummy food and really delicious hot choccies 😍 The cafe is situated in a really lovely quiet spot. The cafe is a little dated, but there’s nothing wrong with that. The only feedback I really have is please update your serving boards, they look a little worse for wear.

Firstly the staff were really friendly,polite and helpful . There are lots of vegetarian options that were beautifully presented. The cakes looked genuinely home made and my lemon brownie tasted yummy. Excellent coffee art and a lovely big mug! I liked that organic coffee beans were for sale too! A few more plants in the outdoor area would be nice to screen the road. Will definitely return for the food and coffee.

Crispy honey chicken and special fried rice was really really good – no complaints. The chicken to batter ratio was perfect and so much chicken in the container. The fried rice had a nice ratio of meats/egg/etc. We ordered takeaway and it took less than 15minutes. The owner/worker was very friendly and happy. Brought our meal to our car. I’d recommend and will be back !

My brother took my son and I to dinner to Kim Khan’s on Sunday, the food was just beautiful. I’ve been coming here since the 90s when I was a little girl, and the flavours are still just as good today. The meals are always fresh and tasty, The lady owner is always so kind and pretty flowers and the deep-fried ice cream is the best my boys love it now just like I did growing up.

Let’s talk about the service..how many places do you go where the staff see you,open the door for you and greet you as if they’ve known you for years,well this happened.
First time visitor so took my time choosing(takeaway) placed my order,waited about 8 minutes then was on my way home..nearly went back to get more because it was that bloody good💯😁
