We came for late lunch around 2 pm on Monday. The restaurant was quiet. We order beef burgers and glass of wine at the counter before seated. Food was delicious and served fast. Good view from the window side table. All experience was great. But the menu was quite limited at moment.

A lovely setting, though even on a quiet morning the cafe was echoing with sound. The coffee and spinach roll were delicious. Such lovely gardens to stroll through. So relaxing and well laid out.

Very nice cafe that can see the very beautiful red sand desert view. This located just opposite visitors center. Seating is very comfortable, cafe not very big. Menu are partially Australian native flavors. Desserts where not in the menu are quite good. Orange cake not very sweet. Staff are friendly. Plenty of parking at the entrance of the garden, with just a short walk.
