Next Door Espresso | Burleigh Heads

The Verdict

Stepping into Next Door’s alfresco cafe will set your heart aflutter with its crisp decor, understated styling and breezy Mediterranean vibes. From the solid teak tables imported from Jakarta to the inviting blue and white striped seating, designer rattan loungers, olive tree centerpiece, and freshly-planted white bougainvillea and jasmine vines that will soon creep their way around the outskirts, Next Door is laidback bohemian luxury.

You’ll be able to enjoy their favourite organic Moonshine coffee—sourced from the tiny town of Federal—along with a totally new and spring-inspired menu that lends itself to the compact kitchen. Served in handmade ceramics are beautifully presented dishes like a spiced bircher with coconut yoghurt, berries, macadamia nut crumb and flowers. Or opt for scooped organic acai with coconut sorbet and toasted granola, bruschetta on sourdough, a nourishing green bowl, freshly baked almond croissants and other treats from the cabinet. 

Once you peel yourself away from your dreamy coffee nook, pop into St Barts adjoining showroom and prepare to wander through the most heavenly homewares and furniture store ever to grace the Coast.
