A neighbourhood espresso shop with soul — great coffee, honest food and good vibes from 6AM in the heart of Newcastle.
Tucked on King Street in Newcastle, Good Brother has been serving the neighbourhood since its early doors — a spot where the coffee is always right and the food is always honest.
We're a heritage-feel café with a modern heart. Our kitchen runs from breakfast through to brunch and lunch, with an evening programme — Good Brother Good Nights — bringing wine, beer, tacos and good vibes after dark.
Dogs welcome, laptops welcome, everyone welcome.
