Yet here I sat in The Single Guys, conversations echoing from each corner of the cafe that was full of people enjoying coffees and ordering from a wholesome menu with choices like a blueberry bagel with vanilla ricotta and honey, or swiss brown mushrooms, fetta, asparagus with fig vincotto on sourdough. Staff did a beautiful dance from table to table in their unofficial uniforms of a white tee, jeans and black cons. All complimented by their dark grey aprons against the navy and white walls of this unassuming but ready to be recognised cafe. From Moggill Road you might miss it so keep an eye out for their mascot, a lone deer on a sign. One of the owners tell me the stag is a play on the image being a symbol of bachelor life, although their name is more of an ode to their house blend being a combination of single origin beans. Despite the clean and hipsterific interior, the crowd here is mixed: young and old alike. It's a great hub of activity. I ordered the mushroom toastie which was the perfect breakfast or light lunch, and on a hot Summers day their Iced V60 black coffee was the deliciously mellow drink I needed to befriend on a day like today. And the flat white was perfection in a white china cup.

There's just that kind of vibe here." And she's right. The two mornings I've been to Nowhere this week have been broken up by locals dropping in and out being spoken to by name and hearing updates of their lives, their children and more. It's a very similar vibe to when you visit Antonia and Brad at PUK Espresso in Kangaroo Point. It's this that makes your Mambo coffee that much sweeter. They're still waiting on a food licence, so for now, it is a selection of cakes and some sandwiches. There's complimentary Wi-Fi too and a kitchen table in the shop next door perfect for a work session surrounded by beautiful things.

On a recent inspired Sunday, remembering hearing many good things about Neighbourhood Coffee Roasters, which calls the old Rainworth General Store home, friends and I gathered and spent a leisurely breakfast. For the first time in many moons I looked at the menu with genuine excitement. Of course there's the obligatory cafe items, and comforts with modern twists like a fig glazed ham and cheese toastie, but then it's mixed with surprise additions like a green tea soba noodle salad (yes I went there for breakfast), splashes of kimchi and a tumeric iced chai latte. Tumeric is so 2016 it hurts. As the cafe filled with weekend brunch hunters, we were never rushed as our group of four grazed through our breakfast and stayed on for another round of coffee. Coffee while we're talking that is roasted by the cafe and consistently turned out a exceptional cup both as a long black and flat white. Add in the chat we had with one of the owners about the history of the building and their discoveries of old advertising signs as they renovated the space and you've got me giving this local gem two thumbs up. Pro Tip: there's heaps of space in the back room for prams and kids (especially out in the back vege garden) and for those of us dog loving cafe hoppers - the four-legged patrons are welcomed with ample footpath seating.

I was pretty impressed with the amount of sweet options, including cakes, baked treats as well as savoury choices that you can take away as well. The Cherry Strudel that we had was just the right amount of sweet and tart and I'm starting to crave it as I type.

Kuta Café is not a gourmet restaurant. Once you've accepted that, you are much more likely to enjoy…read moreyour time there. The views are simply spectacular - I visited for breakfast at around 8.30am and enjoyed an incredible view across Brisbane and all the way up to the Pacific Ocean, all of which was sparkling in the sunshine. There is no table service at Kuta, so you go to the counter to order and pay for your food. The breakfast offerings include eggs, toast, waffles and fruit. I had avocado on toast with poached eggs, and enjoyed my meal - the eggs were runny (though slightly overdone) and the avocado was pretty fresh. The toast was pretty hard though and the coffee wasn't the best, but it was a decent enough meal. My sister didn't quite agree, as her fruit plate came with the grapes still on the stalk, and with parsley sprinkled all over the fruit(?!). Little touches like fresh pepper rather than the powdered variety would have been great, but hey it's a café not a restaurant. The real draw to this place, though, is the view. The food is not spectacular, but I can hardly imaging a better location for a stunning breakfast just 20 minutes outside of a city. For this reason alone, I would definitely return to the Kuta Café, and highly recommend it to both tourists and Brisbane residents alike.

During winter the hot chocolate is popular, during summer the ice creams are popular, this place is open most the day and some of the night so take advantage of it. Prices are the cheapest and they tailor to a lot of tourist groups going through the mountain, in fact a lot of their business depends on it, and thrives on it at the same time. It's got outdoor seating and indoor seating as well as a gift shop, but I recommend the outdoor seating. The view is just magnificent. It's the place to grab your drink and have your snack if you've hiked up the mountain from Chapel Hill... it's a good 30-45 minute trek and you may even bump into people horseback riding. Great little spot, more for morning and night people, the lunch isn't the greatest, but the nachos aren't too bad at all.

I've eaten outside twice and even just sitting in the area eating the food takes me away like I'm on holiday. You're surrounded by greenery and ugh the decor is very LA/Balinese vibes - it's really pretty. They make great drinks both smoothies& mocktails at breakfast time ;). They offer breakfast, lunch, and dinner, & coffee and cakes from Jocelyn's Provisions ! Biggest yass ever because JP cakes are so yum. Table service and wait staff are good - they do get very busy though especially on weekends I have noticed. I have never noticed irritability or rudeness at all, despite how busy they get the staff always appear professional and calm. It is more $$ but the food and drinks is 5/5 quality. Street Parking is available both on the main road and just in the side streets - it's a short walk to score free parking. I already know this is one of my go to places for brunch with my friends if I feel like having a fancy brunch ohohoho!
