It doesn’t matter if you’re browsing, studying or working, you can’t operate effectively on an empty stomach. The State Library of Queensland in South Bank is home to The Library Cafe – a handy respite to relax and recharge with a book while on site or passing through. Those after a pick-me-up can sip on handcrafted coffee from Mantle & Moon or kombucha from Emma & Tom’s. As for the snacks, The Library Cafe’s menu can take you from breakfast through to lunch easily with the likes of open salmon sandwiches, gooey croque madams, pulled smoked beef and mac ‘n’ cheese toasties, big breakfasts and granola bowls. Finally, you can wind down in the afternoon with a gourmet cheese board, wine or craft beer.
