Where To Eat In Logan
St Coco's
3 Cupania St, Daisy Hill, QLD 4127
If you like your coffee local and your brekky game strong, make a beeline for St Coco Cafe. This Daisy Hill favourite pours a custom blend from Parallel Coffee Roasters (think smooth, velvety goodness), and the menu more than holds its own.
Snag a seat outside under the umbrellas and choose between big hitters like vanilla bean panna cotta, granola and the bratwurst benny. Don’t sleep on cauliflower steak with housemade beetroot cashew cream either.
Mi Casa Café
4/3245 Logan Rd, Underwood, QLD 4119
Bringing warm Turkish hospitality to Underwood, Mi Casa Cafe is the kind of all-day spot you’ll want to settle into for hours. Expect wood-fired flavours, stacked waffles and freshly baked desserts served with cosy neighbourhood charm.
Grab a spot outside and choose from loaded Turkish-style menemen and fried chicken bennies to towering pistachio and KitKat waffles paired with strong brews, every dish lands somewhere between comfort food and a full-blown feast. Whether it’s a long brunch or a late-night dessert run, this neighbourhood gem has you covered.
Logan Village Hotel
135 Albert St, Logan Village, QLD 4207
For a slice of proper country hospitality, pull up a chair at one of Queensland’s oldest pubs. The servings are generous, the produce is local, and the menu is stacked—so don’t be surprised if you’re already planning your next visit mid-meal. Make like the locals—order a chicken parmy and stick around for trivia on Tuesday and karaoke on Friday.
Global Food Markets
Corner Station Rd & Croydon Rd, Woodridge, Qld 4114
Every Sunday from 6am to 12pm, the space beside Woodridge Train Station comes alive with a market that puts Logan’s multicultural identity front and centre.
A total feast for your senses, wander among 60 bustling stalls, slinging everything from fresh exotic produce like kundru, cassava and Asian vegetables, then tuck into street eats like Thai boat noodles, mango sticky rice, congee and crunchy pork.
Walton Hotel
6202 Mount Lindesay Hwy, Veresdale, QLD 4285
If you’ve been itching to live out your Yellowstone fantasy, dig out your cowboy hat and boot scoot’ over to the Walton Hotel. The country pub, nestled in the sprawling greenery of Veresdale, serves up melt-in-your-mouth steaks and ice-cold beers with a side of line dancing. Swing by on Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday from 6:30pm and get among it.
Beenleigh Artisan Distillery
142 Distillery Rd, Eagleby, QLD 4207
Perched on the Albert River and quenching the thirst of locals for over 100 years, this award-winning distillery is the perfect place for a cheeky tipple (the Hard Passion Crush never misses).
Among the line-up of top-notch spirits, Queensland’s oldest distillery is also open for tours and tastings to book on their website and home to a primo restaurant—work your way through spicy corn ribs, BBQ rum pork ribs and a stacked cheeseburger.
Kickin Inn
38 Wembley Road, Logan Central, QLD 4114
For a full-blown immersive food experience, roll up your sleeves, pull on a bib and gloves (yes, really) and get stuck into Kickin'Inn’s famous seafood boil bags.
Pick your seafood—prawns, bugs, mussels, crab, lobster—choose your sauce (kajun, lemon pepper, garlic butter), dial up the heat, add your sides and go to town.
Jimboomba
Various Locations
Ok, so this ‘hood is worthy of its own foodie detour. Start with a smooth brew and bacon ‘n’ egg quesadilla at 107 Coffee Terminal, then head to Café on Cusack, nestled in the Colonial Village, for storybook vibes and sweet treats just like your nana would bake. Round it out with a late lunch at Eve Café & Bar in Greenbank on your way home from Jimboomba. Pro tip: order the crocodile spring rolls with lemon myrtle; they’re an absolute flavour bomb.
Where To Stay In Logan
Unyoked Cabins
Flinders Lake, Logan, QLD 4285
Off-grid doesn’t have to mean roughing it. Unyoked dishes up architect-designed tiny homes immersed in nature, it’s prime territory for switching off.

There’s a kitchenette and bathroom for comfort, but the real standout is the outdoor pool—plus a fire pit for stargazing once the sun goes down.
What To Do In Logan
Wellness Experiences
Various locations
We weren’t kidding when we said a visit to Logan offers up a full soul reset. Soak, then switch off with a massage at Merse Wellness, tap into energy healing and a salt cave session at Salt & Soul, or slow things down with yoga and kinesiology at Jimboomba Wellness Centre. For a full recharge, head to Mind Body Recovery for hot and cold pools, saunas and compression therapy.
