Quail Street Emporium and Coffee Headquarters: "Great Coffee!" Saint Helens Restaurant Tip by Kate-Me

This is a very interesting shop indeed....it's predominantly a Books, Collectables and Bric a brac shop but they also have an old fashioned sweet shop section (with Tasmanian ice cream & fudges too) PLUS, coffee bar and cakes.

If the rich aroma of the cofee permeating the shop doesn't lure you in, the sight of the prices will.

Unlike many combination shops I've seen, the coffee bar wasn't shoved into some dark cramped corner, but was in a nice bright, glassy area with comfortable seating and a nice view of the art gallery next door.

Favorite Dish: The Iced Coffee with cream and ice cream was $2.80, which is very reasonable. It was SOO good I would cheerfully have paid a lot more.

My husband is a real connoiseur of good, strong coffee, and was amazed he only had to pay $2.50 for a double shot Espresso, one of the best he'd had.
