The Little Banksia has recently become a bit of a hit on instagram, I don’t know who started this off but it was popping up in my feed constantly for about three weeks or so. This leads to three weeks or so of me constantly whining to Riley ‘we NEED to go to The Little Banksia – Did you see this picture? we HAVE to go there!! – Have you seen those pancakes OMG’. So eventually one morning we headed out to the Little Banksia.
It is a cute little cafe set in an old house across the road from a primary school. Very kid friendly if you happen to have kids, they have a play room I believe. The latte was great, I’m pretty sure Riley’s hot chocolate was a success as well, I don’t recall him complaining anyway! The pancakes came out and by golly are they instagram worthy! Those are the kind of dishes that get me excited – the ones that look like a piece of art rather than something you should devour. Riley ordered the beef brisket on savoury french toast with poached eggs – that may not be what it’s called but there is no menu online so forgive me.
The Pancakes were absolutely delicious as was the beef dish. The pancakes were light and fluffy, well balanced and the sauce was absolutely delicious. We both thoroughly enjoyed our meals, drinks and experience here and will definitely be back!
