West End trades on its reputation as a coffee suburb, and at the very top it earns it. The Twin (7.8) is one of Brisbane's best, full stop. Bold from the jump, smooth full body, faultless execution. But the drop off behind the leader is steeper than the reputation suggests. One elite cafe, then a cluster of decent to average. Blackstar Coffee Roasters, a West End institution since 2007, scored 5.8 — the legacy is older than the shot. West End is The Twin and then a gap. 6 cafes reviewed, average 6.6/10.
