    My banana bread was so burnt, even my cat was disgusted. Instead he broke it up with his little paws and used it as his litter box.

    Like finding an old penny in the sand, this little cafe made my day feel very lucky, like the penny, you can tell the experience and worked in character of this hotspot! People constantly passing through for some wholesome grub and an even more wholesome bit of chit chat with the friendly team while they preciously cradle their delicious beverage. The owner Liat, or Leah, was very kind, especially in our slightly emotionless COVID living, giving details on the menu through the extras and adaptations that can be done for food and drinks. I got my spot in line and no sooner than it takes to sing Humpty Dumpty, I had my hot ‘DirtySoyChaiLatte’ and scrumy Banana Bread! Look out for this shop, although it’s just a hole in the wall, the trailed line of customers is a dead give away of its hiding spot!!

    This was my first experience after recommendation to try this place. It is a very clean place and the staff were exceptionally kind however I just did not have a good experience. The whole dodge the cars and hope you don't die isn't great but the computer only placed one of my coffees through the order, I definitely should have noticed from the price but I am fairly ignorant when it comes to my first time trying an establishment. The batista made my second coffee straight away, I actually received the coffee before the computer could sort itself out for me to pay. This caused a line of people waiting to form and don't forget that it's literally a laneway for cars so it was huge hazard. Coffee was amazing but the banana bread 😂 I feel like I am being kind leaving it at the worst banana bread we have ever had in our lives (with the butter and cutlery forgotten in my takeaway bag). The Banana and Milk Chocolate muffin was really nice but it wasn't enough to return.

    Without doubt, the best coffee in Dickson. Toby's Estate beans, a small but delicious selection of food and bakery treats, and fresh juice are served quickly by friendly staff. With minimal seating, Kickstart is best taken on the go.

    I am quite picky about coffee as I am a barista myself, but you got my heart. Your black coffee is really good!

    i came here one morning after hearing good reviews about it. i was pretty happy with my coffee, good flavour and not too bad, but it was pretty overpriced for how much i got it. otherwise a pretty decent place, if they can get their prices down a bit it'll definitely became a regular visiting spot for me

    Fast service and good coffee. Their chicken sandwich is large enough to be shared.

  • 5/5 Victoria M. 8 months ago on Google

  • 5/5 Carol S. 6 years ago on Google
    My favorite way to start my Sunday - flat white teamed up with an egg and bacon roll topped with homemade tomato salsa - and always served with a smile - I love this place

  • 5/5 Louise P. 6 years ago on Google

  • 5/5 Jesse W. 3 years ago on Google
    It took me 5 months to write this but this is by far my favourite coffee place in CBR. I've been here every day for the great coffee, fantastic staff and good pricing as well. Always friendly at all hours of the morning - thanks again Tim, Sav and all the team! (P.S. best soy chais in town). :)

    Kickstart Expresso is one of the best coffee's in Canberra. Coffee beans are from Toby's Estate. If you're looking for coffee, this is the place to go.

  • 4/5 Laurence G. 7 years ago on Google

  • 5/5 Tim & B. 9 months ago on Google

  • 5/5 Irene C. 2 years ago on Google
    Here every morning. Awesome people and best coffee in Canberra.

  • 5/5 Bridie M. 3 years ago on Google
    Are you looking for some really decent coffee and tasty food stuffs without having to dip into the devils drive through that is Maccas? If you live in Canberra or you're just passing through on a road trip I can't recommend this place enough. The "not so humble" toasty is delicious and the service is top-notch.

  • 5/5 Alireza Bahramzadeh (. 2 years ago on Google
    Good flat white coffee

  • 5/5 Amanda B. 2 years ago on Google
    Great local coffee shop with friendly staff and by far the best BLT I've ever had!

  • 4/5 Jennifer C. 1 year ago on Google
    Nice staff and nice enough coffee but would not take my Keep Cup (managers orders) so had to have a takeaway cup. Not good anymore. ☹️😡

  • 5/5 Penny G. 1 year ago on Google
    The coffee is ahhh-maaazing! But, why this establishment deserves 5 stars is, undoubtedly, the service. They were considerate, kind and accommodating to my request of bringing the coffee to my parked car because I had a sleeping baby and couldn’t get out. I am filled with gratitude and appreciation. Keep up the excellent work, team. You’ve got a new loyal customer!

  • 3/5 Adam P. 1 year ago on Google
    Decent food and drink, but doesn't accept keep cups. If anything, it saves the business money but whatever.

    Came in to grab a drink for lunch, store was fairly busy. Girl in red-ish orange shirt dark hair was under the pump, but was very friendly despite the stress. Pretty hectic workload but got a delicious hot chocolate in only a few mins. Coffee here is great too!

    Coffee was on point along with food and service. Not really a place to sit down for a business meeting as it is a small space with limited seating

  • 1/5 Stephen M. 6 years ago on Google
    $3.50 for an espresso is daylight robbery and simply not acceptable. It doesn't matter how good the coffee is.

    Not so humble toastie was to die for. Great coffee.
