My favourite hidden cafe, I actually stumbled across this cafe by accident, was looking for a cheeky sweet but ended up finding myself in a gorgeous cottage garden cafe, there's a plant nursery, psychic, hand crafted shop and numerous gorgeous seating areas! They even have a live band on, pretty sure that's on Sundays! I come here frequently by myself to read. Never found a cafe like it PLUSS amazing MASSIVE scones and wide tea range

What a Joy! The Blue House is a shop and a nursery with a coffee shack out back - the atmosphere is cool and laid back and the owners adn staff are super welcoming. And the food and coffee are top notch. We shared a bagel and cake which were both delicious adn thWe have been stopping in Canungra for years for coffee but never gone out of the main street till we wandered down Appel Street and found this gorgeous place. Much of the street is filled with the cutest B&B's and with the pub on the corner we will definitely be back for a sleep over soon.

Gorgeous little spot, hidden away in a garden setting. Lots of space and areas to enjoy a quiet meal or a catch up with friends. Hands down best home made cakes and scones you will find anywhere in the area.

I was introduced to this charming place by a friend, and it truly is a delightful little hideaway. I visited on a weekday afternoon, and it turned out to be a wonderful ‘good for the soul’ spot. The scones, cakes, and coffee were not only delicious but also offered at reasonable prices. The atmosphere was so relaxing that I almost felt like taking a nap there. Additionally, the blue house was filled with an array of colorful South American goods, which added to the overall charm of the place. It’s a perfect spot for a cozy and refreshing break.

Hidden gem. Off the beaten path. Visited here on a Sunday late morning. Quite unique venue. Nice food offerings and beverages. Offers outdoor garden seating. Live music. Psychic readings and retail. The birds are friendly and like to eat from your plate.

Light Sunday lunch on a sunny day. Relaxing atmosphere. You can smell the flowers. Friendly service, nice food and chai tea. We had the brunch bagel and chicken salad. One of the nicest bagels I've had. The bacon was really good.

Such a lovely spot to enjoy a peaceful coffee with homemade goodies.. Easy parking and friendly service. I loved sitting in a beautiful garden and do some online work with my coffee. The scones are huge and delicious.
