“We rode our mountain bikes through D'Aguilar from Gap Creek to Mount Nebo and found this to be a great halfway lunch stop. There are bike racks out the front and lots of tables at the front of the cafe, back balcony and in the cafe itself. The food was really nice and reasonably priced. The staff were great and the atmosphere was peaceful. Our food arrived quickly and we were soon back on the bikes heading home. Recommended.” – Fearless80325 (TripAdvisor)
This Cafe is a hub for both day-trippers and locals. Food is really good. Cakes all homebaked. Open 7 days a week. Beautiful birdlife and has a direct link to the Boombana Rainforest Walk and Jollys Lookout Hike. The giant strangler fig is worth a visit.” – Liz (Facebook)
