Booked a table for 3 arrived earlier than expected & there was no issue. Greeted by staff & informed where to find water station with fresh cool water on tap. Ordered 2 avocado smash & 1 quiche salad sat under the beautiful tress in the stunning gardens. Meals arrived & all I can say is we were all so impressed by the quality of the ingredients & the fabulous presentation absolutely delicious food. Had to buy the pasture raised eggs . Thank you for a wonderful afternoon we will be back.

Had the most delicious Devonshire tea with clotted cream and local native berry jam! The surrounding gardens are stunning and so much room for kids to run around. The staff are all very friendly and helpful. Smashed avocado was to die for and friends had bacon and eggs, excellent coffee and also iced coffee. Service was quick as well. Highly recommended.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Fairhill Botanic Nursery, and I must say, the experience was delightful! Under new ownership, the nursery has introduced a fresh and exciting menu that showcases delicious, seasonal ingredients. From the moment I arrived, the atmosphere was inviting, surrounded by beautiful plants and flowers. The menu offered a variety of dishes that cater to different tastes, all beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. I particularly enjoyed the seasonal salad, which was vibrant and fresh, and the homemade pastries were a perfect way to end the meal. The staff were friendly and attentive, making the dining experience even more enjoyable. Overall, Fairhill Botanic Nursery is a fantastic spot for a meal, and I can't wait to return to try more from their new menu!

Small menu however food was all very good quality eg sausages and eggs were tasty. Was very different to the last time I was there over a decade ago when it was buzzing. Lovely staff and great music playing but was hoping for a more adventurous and diverse menu selection.

After reading all the wonderful reviews, I booked a table (a month in advance) for Mother's Day. How disappointing! Seating area run down, poor service, quite a limited menu and to top it off one of our meals (gnocchi) was very undercooked/ raw. We heard that the amazing chefs that are usually there left two weeks ago. It was that bad, I apologised to my mum for taking her there. The only enjoyable thing was the sparkling wine!
Fairhills Courtyard Cafe Bar RestaurantResponded on May 19, 2024
Dear Anonymous, Apologies that you didn't enjoy your time at Fairhill and that the menu and recipes were not to your satisfaction. Glad you enjoyed the sparkling wine, however please be reminded that the team recooked the dish your ordered based on your feedback, and that it was still not to your satisfaction. Please also note we have sold over 500 servings of this dish over the last year to rave reviews. Please be advised that your continued abusive and raised tone of voice with our staff both in the restaurant and nursery was noted by fellow patrons and management and is not acceptable. We take great pride in our food, service and environment and continue to work hard to deliver on our promise of local, seasonal, handmade food that celebrates the best of the Sunshine Coast.

We had been to this cafe 2 years ago We enjoyed our last experience there but unfortunately it seems to have gone backwards The nursery itself is getting smaller and offers less ( used to have gifts and lots of other plants and pots etc) Grounds are overgrown and not maintained the road in is terrible full of potholes Food was okay but not the standard it used to be dried out bacon, hard avocado ( couldn’t eat )and an item left off the plate Sorry not good enough Dogs everywhere and not that that’s an issue just when they bark and disturb the peaceful bush environment Sorry won’t be back

A great venue for diners with dietary requirements. Plenty of gluten free, dairy free, vegan and vegetarian options. Delicious food, unusual combinations. Lovely setting in the garden. Would be even better without the music though, I'd rather hear the birds.
