I would go here just for the view so the fact that the food is amazing is just another added bonus. I had the French toast with a rosti on the side. Wow was it fantastic. French toast was cooked to perfection, bacon was the right amount of crispy, quality maple syrup and the rosti was out of this world. The breakfast roll was also delicious with a huge serving of avocado on it, crispy bacon, cheese, egg, rocket and a yummy kimchi mayonnaise. The bacon and eggs on sour dough was also delicious. The drinks were also yummy. We had a pot of tea(so good and big enough for two cups) an iced coffee ( delicious) and a hot chocolate (so rich and creamy). Staff are lovely and accommodating. Definitely Worth the drive up the mountain for this.

Having stopped in upon my arrival for some crepes (offered to be made vegan if one likes), I went back the next day for an even better toasted sandwich based on lentils and sweet potatoes and couldn't pass up the fries. They had nice chai at a decent price too. The place was efficient and well run given the constant business, and had an upper indoor level as well as seating on the sidewalk. They certainly had an option for most dietary needs. And all told, it really wasn't that expensive. Definitely would make this my port of call if traveling through the mountains again.

I didn't want it to end, so I bought another one. It would have been better for my pocket to have bought two scoops for $6.40, as one scoop was $4.40. But, I didn't know it was going to be this good. And on a waffle cone, it made my day. The customer service is superb. They are so friendly and welcoming. They also sell all sorts of cheeses if you're interested. A beautiful café in a small town. I would take a drive back here. It's totally worth it.

There are plenty of dairy-free flavors, despite Maleny's notoriety for dairy farming. Besides gelato, the place does also offer a cafe menu and various jarred food items for sale, but I suspect most people will be looking first for the fresh mountain ice cream, and it does taste as creamy as one might hope.

My husband ordered the Big May (Big Breakfast) and I ordered the Falafel dish. The bacon and halloumi included in the Big May and my falafels were overcooked and dry - it was as if the food had been cooked earlier and then recooked when we ordered it. The presentation and seasoning was lovely though so maybe the kitchen was just having an off day!

Here's why you should give the place a miss. 1) no table service or staff to tell you it's not…read moretable service, so I wait almost 10 hungry minutes before asking someone if they'd take my order, to be told that I should order at the counter. 2) while quite reasonably priced $13.70 for 2 scrambled eggs (tasteless), toast (soggy), half grilled tomato (undercooked) and 2 Small rosti (crunchy, and not bad) and a soy flat white in a mug, it was the execution that left a lot to be desired, especially the 15 minute wait for the food when there were no other active orders in the kitchen. I had to cover the food in BBQ sauce to mask the lack of flavour. This cafe is prime location on Montville's Main Street and tourists come here because it's got a quaint outlook. Advice to the owners: better train your floor staff and your kitchen staff and you could have a thriving business on your hands.

The restaurant if everything else is closed in the area go to Woolworths, grab something to eat and find somewhere to sit and enjoy the view. Ordered the food and drinks easily enough. The drinks were brought to the table and two of them promptly but accidentally spilt down my back. The waiter was very apologetic and promptly gave me two towels and offered complimentary drinks or a meal. We asked for both as two drinks had been spilt and I was unable to change my top or skirt which was now see through. The manager then came over and told me that 'accidents happen and it did not warrant a free meal, but coffee was a reasonable request'. So now I am irritated and wet so the food really needed to impress me. I had ordered the shrimp salad. Presentation was lovely, taste unfortunately bland and as it was served in a bucket not very practical. My husband had a chicken schnitzel which was over seasoned. The lamb gnocchi was more lamb than gnocchi. The steak sandwich was 'not my favourite sandwich ever'. I later spoke to the manager to tell her that what upset me more than anything was her telling me 'accidents happen'. She immediately went on the defensive and told me I should not speak like that to someone in the hospitality industry. Conclusion my value as a customer was worth $2.10 (business cost). You guessed it we won't be back.

I ordered the Organic Acai Berry Sorbet, which is visually very colorful and appealing. Although I loved the flavor combinations of the crunchy granola, seasonal fruit, and berry sorbet, I found the texture of the sorbet slightly too icy for the dish. I found myself trying to make the sorbet melt faster so that I could enjoy a smoother bite, but I also know the dish is named "sorbet" and not "smoothie bowl" for a reason. Regardless, I did enjoy the dish as a whole and my boyfriend loved his Toasted Muesli. As lunch time approached, I noticed that servers were marking all the tables on the balcony as "reserved". If you plan to come for the view, try to make a reservation in advance.
