A fantastic family owned place to visit for healthy options in Boonah. This is different than your average pub style food that you would find in a country town. This is more about locally sourced healthy choices, combined with an amazing menu that is hard to find elsewhere. They also have a great selection of whole foods and bulk foods, something which is rare to find nowadays in a country town. A very important addition to the Scenic Rim and more importantly, Boonah.

Best coffee in Boonah, (and yes, we’ve tried them all)! My cappuccino was strong, smooth and full of flavour with just the right amount of creamy foam on top. The service was friendly and prompt. Will certainly return.

Great breakfast. Friendly service. Loved the little additions, like the tasty swirl around the edge of the plate and all the little seeds. Great spot for a weekday coffee and breakfast.

We love this cafe and pantry store! Every time we visit Boonah, we have our lunch here. The food is amazing, a complete opposite to the pub style food with its greasy meal. The cafe offers a good selection of healthy meal options using fresh local produce including good quality original desserts. I always buy their Rye bread varieties, Ginger and berries coated in dark chocolate and seeds/grains. Thank you very much for your big efforts to make this place so inviting and warm.
