Breakfast @ Kickstart Espresso

Hidden away behind Subway on Woolley Street in Dickson is Kickstart Espresso, a new cafe offering Toby’s Estate coffee, breakfast toasties and bacon and egg rolls, smoothies and healthy sandwiches and rolls. You’ll notice the cushioned wooden crates and beautiful wooden tables outside.

The wooden furnishings continue inside decorating the front counter.

The cafe is tiny with only two small tables that fit inside. The outback theme is prominent with rusted metal sheeting lining the bottom of one wall and the R.M. Williams signage.

I do like the small pieces that decorate the place.

The front counter has goodies such as muffins and biscuits from the Byron Bay Cookie Company.

The menu lists coffee prices, breakfast options and other specials.

I decided on the breakfast special of a bacon and egg roll + smoothie for $15. My choice of smoothie was the Red Berry with strawberry, banana, yogurt, maple syrup, skim milk and cinnamon. The smoothie would’ve been better with ice as it got warm very quickly. I was asked what sauce I’d like with my bacon and egg roll – BBQ sauce of course!

A close up of the bacon and egg roll. The bacon was slightly burnt around the edges but other than that I still enjoyed it.

Service is friendly and it seems to be a family-run business. This was one of the few cafes open during the Christmas/New Year break and I noticed quite a few locals going in to grab a coffee.

Kickstart Espresso is open from 6am-3pm. I forgot to ask which days but you can contact them or check out their Facebook page for more info.
