the espresso here is the thing to start with, straight up, no fuss. merlo has been roasting in brisbane long enough to know what they're doing, and the george street location sits in the kind of mid-city corridor where you need something that actually works before a morning of meetings or a long afternoon at the district court nearby. you're not going to get a surprise here in the bad sense. this is a roaster that takes its own product seriously, which means the milk-based drinks pull from that same foundation rather than hiding behind it. the flat white on a weekday morning at 239 george st is, genuinely, one of the more reliable cups you'll find in brisbane city.
