Sunny Side

Windsor

As the home of feel-good sandwiches, Sunny Side takes the humble sanga and cranks it up a whole lot with fresh ingredients and downright sublime combinations. Their small but mighty menu includes a weekly special that’s a must-try before it’s gone. Plus, we don’t say this lightly, but Sunny Side has the best breakfast sandwich in Brisbane with free range scrambled eggs laced with kewpie mayo, smokey bacon, kimchi mayo, caramelised onions, and American cheese on thick cut Shokupan Bread.

Fortitude Valley

From the team behind Mitch & Antler comes James & Antler: a hole-in-the-wall joint taking inspiration from European market-style food culture in an ode to the croque sandwich. Slinging a signature sanga filled with smoked ham and egmont cheese, topped with their signature leek cream and manchego cheese, James & Antler have also created contemporary fillings to pad their menu – think wagyu bolognese, cod brandade, creamy cauliflower, and the sweet dolci featuring stewed pineapple and pistachio, topped with macadamia butter and roasted shaved coconut.
