So, what’s with the name? Frigg is a nordic goddess, who was actually Thor’s mother (next time Hemsworth is in town, you’ll know where to find him). Let’s be honest though, the name does work on a few levels. So, Frigg, as in the cafe, is one of those places where you’d expect the staff to know your name by your second visit – it just has that feel. Twin sisters Toula Scott and Maria Elita, the daughters of a Brisbane fish monger, have brought a simple, honest and healthy approach to their first cafe. It seems that combination is striking a chord with hungry locals – there are men in suits sitting down to dippy eggs and a juice, Broadwater swimmers getting acai bowls and connoisseurs sipping on Bear Bones piccolos like they own the joint (in a good way).

The breakfast is served all day alongside a hearty lunch menu that will change monthly. You’ll find smaller breakfast eats like the Gaia Goddess, with organic nut butter, sliced banana, local honey, coconut, chia seeds and granola atop slices of raisin toast, or the Roman Delight with fresh roma tomatoes and baby bocconcini tossed through balsamic on rye. Given the owners’ Greek heritage, there is a hint of European flare across the menu, like the Euro taster plate with boiled eggs, ham off the bone, fresh pastry, fruit, pork sausage, cheese slices and yoghurt on the side. Come lunch time, you’ll find a rotating menu of housemade dishes like the Greek spaghetti pie, the hearty wagyu beef burger and the ploughman’s platter finished with cheeses, relish and pickled onions. The sisters are all about creating a space that locals can eat at every single day – so, there’s nothing on the menu over $20, there’s Wifi, cool music, countless USB ports for all … and not a fancy edible flower in sight.
