In the peaceful surrounds of tree-lined Moorooka, the scent of coffee emerges each morning from a vibrant space on Tarragindi Road. Out the front of Grumpy Espresso, you’ll notice a barbecue on the deck as well as tables filled with happy customers enjoying wholesome dishes and delicious coffee. The gracious team at Grumpy’s provides water bowls for pets on the synthetic turf-covered frontage, and four kinds of babycinos for the discerning child. A favourite amongst younger locals, the Princess Cino sees pink sprinkles scattered atop a small Genovese cup of foam – a treat that can be suitably accompanied by toast soldiers.
