English Gardens — Restaurant in Gold Coast City

We stayed here for two nights with our 5 month old. San and Catalina were the best hosts! The cottage was very cosy. The temperature in the mountain was cool but there were many heaters and a fluffy duvet to keep us warm. There was even an electric blanket (although we didn't need it..). We enjoyed exploring the beautiful garden... And the lookout was a mere 5 min walk away. Just down the road are many walks, picnic areas, shops etc. ||One of the best parts of staying here though were the scones. Holy moly. One of the best scones that we have ever eaten. Soft, yet crunchy and crumbly on the outside. Paired with home made blueberry jam and cream - please do yourself a favour and try them. And perhaps even buy a ton of them to take away (they are so easy to warm up - just cut them in half and grill each side to warm them up and make them crunchy on the outside again) ||Thank you for having us!! We will...

This is a very quirky place strategically placed at the end of the Springbrook Road right across the road from a waterfall. We were hungry and went in. There were 2 cakes on offer; both looked delicious. A cheese cake and a carrot cake oozing cream cheese icing. Perfect. We ordered coffee and cake. The cakes we were given were not the cakes displayed on the counter. The cheesecake was covered in nutmeg and the carrot cake had the very thinnest smear of icing on the top and to sandwich it. When we left; sure enough the cakes we had looked at and said we wanted a slice of were still in 1 piece and had no slices taken out of them. We thought that was pretty sneaky. Cakes were $10 each. Other people ordered lunch and the offerings actually looked delicious so maybe that's a better bet, or insist you want the cake they present at the counter. Good luck. Other...
