Great coffee
Nice ice cream
Really slow service
Generally bad food
Fantastic food

I both love and hate this place and visit it 3 or 4 times a year at least.

The views are the highlights the lowlights is the food is pretty ordinary and the coffee is on par with the not so good. If you are dying for a good coffee, I recommend the cafe at the botanical gardens.

Food was horrendous took ages for it to come the Coffee was awful , the only reason they are still in Business is they are they only cafe @Mt Cootha apart from the Restaurant

relaxed atmosphere, especially at night. i like getting an ice cream and a coffee when admiring the views of the city while chatting with friends. prices are slightly higher than average, especially the cake.

Approximate cost: $5

This place is so nice! The views alone are worth going for, sometimes my husband and I just get a coffee so we can sit there and relax. The food is really good, and in Winter they have big heaters on next to some of the tables, which makes it really comfortable even in cold weather.

On a clear day, the views are spectacular! I take anyone who's new to Brisbane up here, for a good feed & a good view. It's usually fairly busy on the weekends, but the food is excellent & there's plenty of choice, whether you want an ice cream on a hot day or a 3 course meal in their restaurant - it's all there!

If you want to eat somewhere different or just go for coffee, the lookout at Mt Cootha is a unique place, you can drive up to the look out and take some great pictures of Brisbane, during the day or night.
the resturant is just to the side, try their ice chocolate restaurant
