Why it's worth checking out
Plantation House Cafe sits on Tallebudgera Creek Road at Burleigh Heads, one of the Gold Coast's coolest and most beloved suburbs, near the lovely Tallebudgera Creek. A much-loved cafe, it's become a genuine local favourite — combining quality food and good coffee with a relaxed, characterful setting in a gorgeous part of the southern coast.
The appeal is that combination of quality cafe fare, good coffee and a relaxed atmosphere in a lovely Burleigh Heads location near the creek, ideal for a leisurely brunch, a morning coffee or a casual catch-up. In food-savvy Burleigh, a cafe that's nailed both its food and its coffee really stands out, and Plantation House has clearly won over a loyal following.
