Nestled in the Miami Central complex on the Gold Coast Highway, the Quade & Co. space is a far cry from its former state as a tattoo parlour, featuring exposed copper piping, rad brass pendant lights, live greenery, indoor and outdoor bar seating and a hand-painted wall mural featuring the countries of the world. After doing the rounds as a barista across the coast, Isaac teamed up with mate Chris Roche to create the coast’s newest espresso bar – a place where it’s well and truly all about the coffee.

You’ll find Isaac behind the machine seven days a week pumping out specialty brews using blends from renowned Melbourne roaster Locale Espresso. For now, it’s just coffee, but in the coming week the cabinet will be brimming with doughnuts and takeaway treats – piping-hot toasties are on the way too. If (like us) you’re a sucker for good coffee and hanging plants, then you’ll want to put this new neighbourhood hang on your list.

The doors to Quade & Co will open to the public this Saturday February 3 – hit our Stumble Guide for opening times, location and contact details.
