Beautiful little cafe that offers delicious coffee and small snacks on the go. I would recommend that if possible in the future, this cafe could invest in breakfast meals or lunch? It would top off this amazing place to 5 stars!! 🤩 Regardless, it’s an elegant vibe here and wonderful place to visit.
Only ordered a coffee so can’t comment on the food but it smelt good and a few tasty treats in the cabinet. Lovely undercover seating area and wasn’t super busy when I went. Coffee is good 😊ordered a cappuccino on almond milk which can be hit and miss depending on cafe. Fast service and lovely experience. Hidden quiet gem. Will definitely be back again.
A Hidden Gem with Incredible Coffee At first glance, Bourton Road Café is quite unassuming, but the moment you walk in, you’re welcomed by warm smiles and friendly service. I initially thought the signs printed on what looked like a home printer and simple décor might be a sign of a forgettable experience, but I couldn’t have been more wrong. Not only were the staff members absolutely delightful, but the food was fantastic—and the coffee... YUMMO! I wouldn’t call myself a coffee snob, but I do know that Australians take their coffee seriously, and this place exceeded my expectations. In fact, it was possibly the best coffee I’ve had during my visits to Australia—which is saying a lot, considering I’m married to an Aussie coffee lover! Lately, I’ve been reducing my caffeine intake and switching to decaf, which can often be a disappointment. Not here! I ordered a Flat White with almond milk, and it was SO frickin’ good. The crema they got from the almond milk was insane—so smooth and rich, it didn’t even feel like decaf. The food was just as impressive. I had the steak sandwich and fries, while my husband ordered the bacon and egg roll with hashbrowns and banana chocolate bread. I didn’t try the egg sandwich, but judging by his reaction (basically drooling), I’d say it was a hit. The brisket on my steak sandwich was melt-in-your-mouth tender, almost like butter—incredible. If I had one tiny critique, it could have used a tad more sauce, but that’s a small detail compared to the overall amazing experience. If you’re looking for exceptional coffee, friendly service, and delicious food in Merrimac, don’t overlook this place. We’ll definitely be back! Update: Even Better the Second (and Third) Time! After our first visit, we loved Bourton Road Café so much that we came back two more times! Each visit was just as wonderful as the first. Today, we had a strawberry macadamia scone and the most amazing fruit tart—both were absolutely delicious. We also had the pleasure of meeting Angie and Raj, who are super friendly and doing a fantastic job of turning the café around. It’s clear they care about their customers and the experience they create. Sadly, we’re heading back to the U.S. tomorrow, but this café has been a highlight of our trip. I’m so glad we stumbled upon it, and I’ll definitely be back whenever we return to the Gold Coast. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for great coffee, friendly service, and incredible baked goods in Merrimac!
A Hidden Gem In Merrimac. Lovely Cafe Located on Bourton Road. Super Friendly Service. Offering a Good Selection of Sweet and Savoury Treats and Great Coffees. Do Yourself a Favour.
What a nice little cafe! Service, atmosphere, food and coffee was superb. Good selection of cabinet food to choose from. We had the gluten free banana bread and orange and poppy seed cake which was fresh and tasty. Pretty spacious seating area for a small cafe which is also great. Thanks for having us!
