The Lavender Cottage - Gordon Park, Queensland

Visited this fine establishment one peaceful morning and was pleasantly surprised. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, with the kind of charm that makes you want to linger just a little longer.

The coffee? Quite better than good—smooth, rich, and exactly what one hopes for in a well-crafted cup. I ordered a hot latte, and my wife opted for the same. Mine was excellent, the perfect balance of creaminess and bold espresso. I didn’t ask my wife how hers was, but given the contented sip-and-sigh routine she settled into, I imagine she was equally impressed.

The food was good as well—simple yet satisfying, prepared with care and a touch of something special that made it more than just breakfast.

All in all, a fine morning spent in the warmth of Lavender Cottage. We will certainly be back for another hot latte. Thank you for a lovely start to the day.

Popular with the local neighbourhood. Coffee is good and they have a range of food options and gifts. Small so seating is sparse but can accommodate small groups. Kid friendly.

Cute little cafe, I was surprised to see they had tasty treats and the coffee was good. Loved the lavender look and watercolour art inside. A great place to stop. 🙂

The Lavender Cottage has been my go-to cafe since moving to the area! Every coffee has been absolutely perfect and the staff are so friendly too! I’ve been to a LOT of other local spots and none have measured up for me. Thanks for the delicious coffee, guys!

I just had the best coffee and home baked spinach and ricotta tart. Well done and the service is fabulous. See you again soon

Lavender Cottage is a charming little café located just off a main road, but it’s not too busy, so you can comfortably sit out front and enjoy a coffee with friends. There are only a few tables and chairs outside, but there are more seats available inside.
The café doesn’t seem to have a full kitchen with a complete menu of meals, but you’ll find plenty of options for a light meal along with your coffee or a cold drink like a smoothie or milkshake. They also offer a cute assortment of knick-knacks for sale, such as novelty coffee cups, bath bombs, lavender oil, and homemade jams. It would be nice to see a larger range of lavender-themed accessories like hand creams or gift packs to better complement the lavender theme.
There’s plenty of street parking around, although I didn’t notice any toilets available. The café is definitely dog-friendly, with dog water bowls out front, and they sell pup cups with dog treats. I was able to browse the shop with my puppy on a lead. The staff were very friendly and helpful, and they have a knack for carrying things through the door, even when it’s heavy.

Normally it’s good here. I can’t help but think the owner must be away. I took home a cooked quiche from their little oven. When I got home and looked at it, it looked nothing like a quiche. It was so badly burnt, you could not eat the top of it, let alone the sprinkled bits of bacon.

Such a cute little cafe!! I’ve been eyeing it off for a while and finally popped in today for a coffee. The lady who served me so kind cheerful. I’d love to try some food next time! Prices are good also.
