A few words from Botanic Gardens Cafe
Coconut and chilli prawns, served with salad and steamed rice.
Simple and elegant, Botanic Gardens Café on Lagoon Street is Mackay's unique garden and gallery dining destination. Relax and take in the view and local wildlife from the shady alfresco deck, enjoy monthly exhibitions in the Lagoons Gallery or plan a garden escape while enjoying a latte and brunch with family and friends. From casual gatherings to high teas and events, this little gem is the place to refresh and refuel with breaky tempters such as spinach and feta scrambled, spinach leaves and fruit chutney; or a Lagoon omelette with ham, spinach, mushrooms, cheese, tomato, toast and hash brown. The lunch crowd enjoys a chilled glass of wine with a salt and pepper calamari salad; while pasta lovers twirl a fork around chicken fettuccine, bacon, mushrooms, basil, cream, tomato and Parmesan.
