LM’s burgers are all heavenly, and their deliver-to-car service (if you pre-pay) is fantastic during these times of isolation. The food here just gets better and better. Thanks to the LM team for their excellent service and all the deliciousness.

Update: For dinner we got the heat and serve family sized slow cook pork/mac and cheese combo. Easily enough for four hungry adults. It was so good I nearly died. The end. Get some.

Have not been back here over a year so made a visit this morning.
It was not surprised to see so many diners there even it was early 7:00pm.
Perused the menu and found that they serve “Saigon Coffee” so gave it a go with my latest default brekkie “poached eggs with smoked salmon.
Coffee came with a row of a glasses of iced water and two jugs of double shot coffee and condensed milk respectively. I tipped the coffee in the iced water and poured the condensed milk up to my level of sweetness that I liked. I love this idea very much.
Savoury dish came the next. It came with a stack of smoked salmon and two nicely prepared poached eggs with herbs on top of it that accompanied with tomato relish. Poached eggs were both perfectly done and I was very satisfied with the generous amount of smoked salmon on the dish.
It was a perfect brekkie!👍😋👍

Went here with a high school buddy (known each other from yeeears ago) we heard about lady Marmalade Cafe from the high reviews on Zomato and did not disappoint! The drinks where fresh and the food was insanely yummy. Friend got the pancakes and I got the potato croquettes (subbed the egg for Bacon) and it was creamy and packed with buttery garlic goodness however not heavy at all. It was like the potato was whipped to perfection and the outside was just the right crispness to match. Friend enjoyed the pancakes saying they were light and fluffy (as pancakes should be!) he wasn’t keen on the fairy floss though - I see lately it seems to be a trend. However he said the fruit cream balanced out the sweetness. Only thing was no aircon inside and there was 100000 people... I think too crowded and hot however, I do get why! Gonna go back and try the coffee next time :D

Brisbane’s brunch game has stepped up in the recent years and Lady Marmalade is proof. I cannot imagine going back to the old days (LOL, like 2009), when all that was on offer for brunch was either 1. Bacon and eggs 2. Pancakes 3. Smashed avo on toast 4. Muesli. Nowadays the menus are full of weird and wonderful, great twists on classic dishes, and just perfected for the sever omg brunch connoisseur.

We had blueberry pancakes with pecans, maple syrup, and bacon. It was fantastic, I normally hate pancakes but that dish almost converted me.
Also ordered Mexican beef with guacamole, and a fried egg served on a waffle (yup a waffle). Of course I ordered this cause it was served with chilli‘s and sounded weird. But holey moley it was delicious, perfect portion, perfect ratio.

We loved the experience and it’s now ranked very high on our brunch bucket list.

I visited the cafe which is at a walk distance from Buranda station. We ordered shoe string french fries, which was delicious. It had truffle oil and parmesan cheese in it that made the simple fries super delicious. Then we ordered for Twice baked cheese soufflé( veg) that was served with pumpkin puree, which we had for the very first time in our life and it was good. Lastly in dessert we ordered doughnut waffle with burnt caramel icecream. It was super super delicious and a must try would say. The flavour of espresso syrup with cinnamon sugar sprinkled on waffle was so so yummy.

Great place for a weekend brunch.. The ambience is great, good service and the options on the menu are great. We had the Lm gringo waffle, which was really good, as well as the confit duck which was amazing, the duck was really well cooked and came of the bone easily. Also the korean chiken burger was really good. Cant wait to get back and try all the other things on the menu. The coffee was amazing too!!

On my past two weekend visits I have been unable to get a table. Driving past today, after lunching at Ku-O, I see vacant tables and I decide to drop in for coffee and dessert.

I did not fancy any of the desserts on the Sweets Board so I settled for a large Cafe Latte. The coffee looks strong for a double shot. Hot, strong and flavourful this is a very good coffee, rating 4.5! Thank you guys!

I had the absolute pleasure of heading in to Lady Marmalade in Stones Corner to try out their recently launched summer dinner menu. I had heard good things and it certainly didn’t disappoint! There were something’s I was disappointed about though, more on those at the end. I always like to take recommendations of the best dishes from the team and Sonja (one of the owners) was more than happy to share! You might remember her from my last visit.

Recently came along to Lady Marmalade for a friend's 30th birthday dinner, my better half and I had a great night. The staff were lovely and really took care of everyone. The food was absolutely delicious! Those were the best tasting fries I've had and the twice baked cheese souffle with lamb shank ragu was incredible. I can't wait to try their other dishes in the future.Thanks for the wonderful time!

A great local cafe in the Stones Corner area with an interesting menu with a twist. The space was big & open, bright & quite relax, perfect for a girls catch up over some lunch. The serving sizes definitely won't leave you hungry. My LM Gringo waffle had a Mexican flavour, it was very heavy duty with beef, chorizo, cheese, avocado, black beans salsa, sour cream & topped with a fried egg. All of the different elements magically just works together. My friend got the waffle on the special list, the confit duck with chilli cornbread. Also topped with a fried egg, it was served with sweet maple & chilli sauce, so an interesting bland of sweet & savoury. My other friend also enjoyed her soufflé, quite fluffy. The service were friendly, we were taking our time chatting over coffees, not realising they were ready to close, but they didn't try to hurry us out or make it really obvious they were packing up. Definitely worth a return visit.

I love visiting Stones Corner, particularly on a Saturday morning. Little known fact about me is that I am an avid op-shopper, so enjoy wandering around those in the neighbourhood. We were very excited to be invited to visit Lady Marmalade – every time we drive past Stones Corner it is packed to the rafters, which is normally a good sign!

This is hands down the best breakfast/lunch spot in Stones Corner.

Often there is a wait on weekends, but suck it up because it’s worth it.

The menu is constantly changing. I eat here all the time and I’ve never had a dud meal.

The cafe is beautifully decorated.

Phenomenal coffee.

I didn’t choose the baby chino life, the baby chino life chose me. And on this day, a day of firsts, the baby chino life chose my daughter. She loved it. I still think they’re silly. But this meal was always going to remain in the memory bank, regardless. Thankfully, the rest of the dishes added to the experience. The mushroom/lentil burger was a revelation, with better texture than most beef patties. The fritters were fresh, filling, with just the right hit of citrus. For $10, the kids bacon and eggs is overpriced, and a Pacific Ale is not a Twisted Palms (though I didn’t have the heart to say anything). However, the servers were helpful and all smiles, and we left feeling pretty good about things.

Brunched here today with my lover. We shared 2 dishes: poached eggs w wild mushrooms and house-made basil hollandaise, (like eggs Benedict, which I love, only more interesting); and a surprising, inspired interpretation of french toast made w raisin-brioche, served w startling pink rose-flavoured fairy floss, rhubarb compote, and ice cream.
But you can't have these culinary marvels bc the menu is changing this week.
We'll be back to find out where the chef's imagination will take us next.

Saturday morning at 11am, it’s the weekend and I’ve been looking forward to trying LM all week. I’ve heard good things from friends and it certainly seemed as though everyone in Greenslopes had heard the same! We have walked in to an absolute hive of activity and no wonder it is so popular. The food certainly lived up to the hype. We ordered the LM Gringo waffles & sweet potato and butternut pumpkin bowl (add halloumi). The latter was the highlight for me. Warm and toasty with sprinkles of sharp feta cheese made the dish memorable and left me wanting more. The waffle was tasty, well presented and very original. Personally, I would have liked a lemon wedge to add acidity to the dish (I should have asked) and for the waffle to be crunchier but that’s just my own preference. Overall great food and prompt service on a bustling Saturday morning brunch service. Would give 4.5 stars but the mobile but the mobile app won’t let me so 5 it is!

We came here on a Friday night to check out the tapas scene. Their menu changes/varies slightly, depending on the produce. The night we came there were sharing plates (antipasto), meatballs, pumpkin aranchini balls and pizzas.

We tried the antipasto plate and the pizzas. I was so happy that there was real bread on the table (and yes they will bring you extra bread!). Everything was delicious. The pizzas were my absolute favourite. They are made fresh to order which is great for allergies. The fig and truffle honey was divine. I didn't get any photos of the pizzas unfortunately because they all disappeared once they hit the table.

Love how attentive the staff are and the atmosphere is very chilled (they even have light dimmers 😁).

If taking a group I'd recommend reserving a table. Look forward to coming back.

We have been here previously before the new reno, so after a big morning decided to visit. Double the space and with a modern new interior everything was new and plenty of people inside. it was busy. plenty of street parking, with seating inside and out.

We were greeted and waited until a table was available, customer service was Great, keep telling us table shortly. Not too long we had a table inside, with a toddler chair.

Service staff friendly and took our coffee order straight away, latte all around even a chai for the little one. menus looked good and still had food from previous menu.

We ordered the big carnivore and eggs benny, with a side of fries. coffees as usual came out promptly and it was a nice drinkable cup. Not too hot not too cold, just right.

What felt like an eternity, it was busy maybe 30 mins our meals arrived. everything was balanced and we enjoyed our meals, reasonable pricing for what you get.

Went here for a weekday breakfast. This was the first time I have returned since it's renovations, noting the classy interior design and much bigger space. However, more importantly, the food remains top-quality.

We ordered coffees, as well as Avocado on Toasted Rye Cob (additional poached egg), Eggs Benny with ham, and the Cauliflower Rice.
The coffee was great - smooth and hot. The cauliflower rice was innovative - textural in a way reminiscent of quinoa, with nice mixed Asian flavours via the kim chi and nori.
My companions both agreed that their avocado on toast and eggs benny were good as well, with perfectly poached eggs.

Friendly and efficient service. Casual ambience - perfect for brunch dates or catch ups. Licensed venue. Reasonable prices.

Overall, a trendy cafe on Stones Corner with good food and coffee.

Lady Marmalade Cafe is a Stone’s Corner stalwart that has recently (well, sort of recently) undergone a revamp. A bit like the Pretty Woman transformation, it has been spruced up and styled up, going from quirky retro to French classic. A view of the service counter, sitting between what is now two rooms’ worth of seating area.

This is the first time we've ventured to the newly renovated Lady Marmalade Café. Talk about stunning! Not only has the café practically tripled in size, but the everything from the tableware to the staff uniforms have had a complete overhaul. The once rustic LM Café is now certified classy! We came here on a busy Sunday morning but were seated within a few minutes. The menu offers traditional dishes as well as plenty of interesting options (clearly the new chef is an Ottolenghi fan). We opted for the classic brekky burger and beans with pulled pork. While I wished there was a little more pork in my dish for the extra $3, the depth of flavours were amazing. We were also impressed with the size of the ice coffee - served in a tall glass (no mason jars here thank-you very much!). Another thing we liked were the updates on our wait time, which was hardly long at all. The only thing we were disappointed in was that we hadn't visited sooner. We will be back again soon :)

Visited LM on this rainy Sunday morning after seeing that it was renovated. Arriving around 11am, it was packed but we were lucky to find a table outside (so cold and windy though 😭). I’m sure it would be so nice on a sunny day. We ordered the pink pop juice, LM gringo on sourdough and the butternut pumpkin and cheese pastry. The drink came out super fast but it was very sweet, tasted like pineapple juice instead of freshly juiced pineapple. The food came out around half an hour later and portions were smaller than I expected. The flavours were great. Overall I may come back to try more drinks but not sure about the food!

The new LM is bigger, airy and more French cafe than Stones Corner grunge. I love the refurbishments and the menu still has some old faves plus some new tasty options. LM has always had a strong food game and this has not changed. Coffee is ok but my flate white could have been hotter. I'm excited at the prospect of LM opening evenings for dinner.

Enjoyed a wonderful dinner tonight at Lady Marmalade. The confit duck was succulent and generously positioned. The chicken was flavoursome and the accompanying artichoke and polenta was well matched with flavours that made for a very tasty and satisfying dinner. The food and service was high quality. A very enjoyable evening.

Lady Marmalade is all different now on the outside and inside. The menu is the one on here though. Gone are the quirky tables and chairs and the blankets and the plastic animals. The food was a bit slow to come out but they apologised and the service was friendly. The banana bread was amazing, so thick and better than average banana bread. The eggs on toast were also delicious and very filling even though it looked a small amount on the plate. I always have to have hot chili sauce on eggs and they got me some. The smoothie was very nice but over way too soon as always seems to be the case. There was a strong aroma of scented magnolia candles which I'm not sure is right for a cafe. They have table service now and no food cabinets.

Lady Marmalade, you have been on my 'bookmarked to-go' list for the past two weeks. This morning, I finally managed to find a park and I couldn't wait to see what you've got to offer! 🙌🏻

9:30am was my arrival time - I see diners enjoying their morning coffee fix as well as devouring into their breaky. I realised the dish I was prepared to order was not on the menu, assuming they may have changed some of their dishes, I went with their Green Eggs and Ham as well as a Mocha Coffee.

Coffee was served hot and it was just what I needed for the cool morning. My breakfast came around 10-15mins later smoking hot. The pesto scrambled eggs were really good! I really appreciated the balance between the eggs and pesto (Looks like avo but it ain't ☝🏻) Bacon wasn't over cooked, just right! Roasted Tomatoes are always nice, and lastly the Buttery Turkish Toast was just how I'd like it, slightly toasted 👌🏻

Will be back for sure :)

Thank you for a nice morning Lady Marmalade!

Wow!! Best brekkie we have had! We go to a lot of different brekkie cafes, and the food here takes the cake!! The 60/60 eggs were perfection, every item on the plate was loved by the foodies that work the kitchen.
It is on a busy road, which for city dwellers is atmospheric. For summer, it was a little hot as there were not fans or aircon (so a cooler day would be perfect). Staff had big smiles. Try this place!!

Wow!! Love this place, another bookmarked cafe adventure completed!
Planned a catch up with some old work mates before they return back to work & overseas and decided this cafe with such a high score, I cant go wrong!
Staff were so friendly and helpful. Such a pity there was no air con or fans to cool us down. But we sat outside and got glimpses of a breeze.
Order at the counter, and they gave us our "table animal" I ordered the Open beef rib fillet on sourdough with Caramelised onions. My friends ordered The Gringo and the other a Ham, cheese & Tomato toasted panini. My long black with a side of milk was so smooth.
May I say my open steak sambo was "The Bomb". I could see real herbs, and it tasted amazing. Everyone agreed that their meals were very tasty and reasonably priced.

Located on a noisy, busy street, this place is mostly outside seating so lacks a bit of atmosphere. The table numbers are animal figurines which is cute and unique; however the staff are a little uneducated on the menu and ingredients (even the items in the window). They do have the AFR Weekend newspaper so that won points with the BF and he loved his breakfast special (Avo and 60/60 Eggs) and banana smoothie.

If you are after great coffee, VERY quick delivery of food and bubbly inviting staff then this is the place for you. We got acknowledged the minute we walked in. With my oder of carnivore big brekky and sweet corn waffles for her we didn't wait long at all for both coffee and brekky, to find our table they don't have boring old numbers for your tables instead had animals (crocodile, lion etc) just to add that little bit of quirky feel to it, love it. When the coffee arrived i took one sip and didn't want it to end, fantastic coffee lady marmalade!!! Less then 5 mins later the mains arrived and the crocodile was gone. Great brekky great coffee and very clean staff ensuring tables wiped down quick and efficiently.

Sweet corn waffles for me and Carnivore Big Brekky for him - excellent portion size and price to match. It is pet friendly too which is great! Love the little animals that are handed out when you order - cute, innovative idea instead of handing out the basic table numbers. Thank you Lady Marmalade for a wonderful start to our busy day!

One of the cafe experiences in a long time! The owner was a total sweetheart who was more than happy to do whatever she could for us to have a great time - we ordered the Herbivore Biggie Breakfast and the Gringo, and an iced latte.

Gotta disagree with the below - the Gringo was just fantastic. Toast to meal ratio was perfect, and something about the toast soldiers was v moreish. Loved the addition of chorizo.

Will 100% be back - we live right across the road! Much love for this place and the crew ❤️

Love, love, love this place! I think it is one of the best breakfast places in Brisbane. My favourite dish is the mushroom and goat's cheese on brioche. It is very busy, particularly on Sunday morning, and there might be a bit of a wait for a table, but it is one of the few places I'm happy to line up for. It is a little bit of a quirky place. I love that they give you a little toy instead of a table number.

When you see the size of the kitchen, it’s amazing that Lady Marmalade can turn out toast let alone meals. It is packed to the hilt on weekends with hopeful punters staring you down as you finish your breakfast but it’s a more sedate affair mid-week.

In my ongoing quest to move beyond egg combos for breakfast, I was delighted to see Corn Waffles w Feta & Roasted Tomatoes on the menu. I could have also selected good old fashioned Savoury Mince on (Sourdough) Toast or an exotic Vegan Okra & Black Eye Pea Gumbo. For the die hards, there are the standard eggs and smashed avo options.

I had driven past Lady Marmalade more times than I care to think. Driving past, it had always been busy regardless of the time of day. For some reason I had never given much thought to trying there. However, recently we decided to give Lady Marmalade's a try while looking for brunch places in Stones Corner. Lady Marmalade is definitely a quaint place with surprisingly plenty of seating. We had a look over the menu, decided, and placed our orders. Out of the three of us, I was the only one that ordered a coffee. The coffee was okay, but was a bit to bitter and probably the least enjoyable aspect of the dining experience. After you order, you receive a toy as your table number. I thought it was a smart and ingenious way to have table numbers. Something a little bit different is always good I think.

Ordering had been quite a dilemma, as everything sounded like it would be great. I finally decided to order the Grill Dog, while the other two ordered a Ricotta pastry from the counter and 'Gringo' baked eggs. The meals came out and were great. The Grill Dog had plenty of flavour and lots going on. The nacho toppings really set it off. They are not stingy on giving sour cream. Some Mexican restaurants should take note! The baked eggs was really good as well, with lots of flavour from the eggs and the ragu. But the other members on my table were definitely getting food envy from the Grill Dog.

Overall, I am surprised that I had not been there before, but now I am aware how delicious it is there, I will be making my way back. The other meals sounds nice on the menu, so I will have to give them a try. I know my dining companions will be going back to try the Grill Dog.

Hadn't been to this place in years - I've been missing out. This place is great for a quick breakfast or lunch. The menu is small but I think this helps to keep the service punchy and customer turn over high. When you order you are given a quirky place holder - ours was a plastic crocodile. I ordered a pulled pork roll with nacho toppings and a coffee. The roll was delicious and the coffee was drinkable but nothing special. My sister had savory waffles and a salted Carmel milkshake. She enjoyed them both. Portion sizes are fairly big (well we thought so) and probably could have shared one meal and a side. Location wise it's nothing special being on a main road with most of the seating outside but as I mentioned earlier if you are keen for a quick bite - not wanting to stay and chat for ages - this is a great cafe. I will return.

I go to Lady Marmalade when I am need of something hearty and tasty. The food is really rustic and homely. It feels like a big warm hug and picks you up, like mum's cooking would. The staff are always friendly and in a good mood and excellent when you mention food allergies. I mentioned it was my mum's first visit so they made a special face in her latte foam. Its always a pleasure going here and I am reminded why on each visit.

Had lunch from their all day breakfast menu. I chose the 60/60 egg which is boiled at 60 degrees for 60 minutes and turns out like a poached egg. I opted to have mine medium on the hot plate. The egg came with toasted sourdough, roasted tomato, chimmi curri sauce, avocado and corn salsa, and hash brown. I added on haloumi and maple bacon. Everything was delicious and I rather enjoyed the egg - a big thing for me as I strongly prefer to have my eggs scrambled. My skinny cappuccino was perfect, they use Genovese coffee beans here. Staff were fantastic - very friendly and accommodating.

This place is my go to - I eat here a lot. The coffee is good, the food is amazing and the staff are so friendly and warm you feel they are happy as soon as you walk in - it's a great vibe. Surprised another reviewer said the banana bread was awful as I get this all the time and I know they make it fresh in-house because I asked as it's not like a typical tiny dark brown banana bread it's a generous piece of golden yumminess served with honey and mascarpone - I want a piece just writing about it. I have eaten my way through most of the menu and everything is good but I have my favourites. Good job Lady Marmalade I am so glad to have you in my local area.

Best breakfast I've ever had in brisbane! I had the "breakfast special" - it was smashed avocado with 60/60 eggs, bacon, grilled Haloumi, feta and dukkah! This must become a permanent fixture in the menu! The only slightly negative feedback I have is that the avocado was doused in lemon which made it an extremely sharply flavored part of the dish. But that's only a minor thing because overall, it blew my mind with how delicious it was!! DEFINITELY will recommend this place to anyone and everyone I talk to!

Voulez vous. With its cozy furnishings and smiling staff, one cannot walk by Lady Marmalade Cafe without wanting to join the already happily seated customers. Their all-day menu offers a range of simple breakfasts as well as some other very interesting options which can be viewed here. A cabinet display also offers frittatas, pies and sandwiches as well as sweet choices such as their rocky road.

I thoroughly enjoyed my gluten free frittata with a side salad (a mix of their asian salad and quinoa salad) and took my pick of a simple orange juice by The Juice Guys out of a fridge filled with all kinds of interesting drinks. The meal was very well presented and a perfect portion size for the price I paid.

Lady Marmalade is very easy to get to, with street parking and public transport nearby. The Buranda Train Station or Stones Corner Bus Station are in walking distance. After being served by the friendly, welcoming and easy-going staff, I very much look forward to my next visit very soon!

Quite lovely. It's taken me a while to get to this place, I've been to Shady Palms twice (cool spot, ok food) so thought I should head to Lady Marmalade and compare venues. Today we braved the Sunday crowds with positive results. The guy who took our order was super friendly and kindly warned of a 20 minute wait for our food. The coffees arrived quickly -- they were pretty good. Nice and strong but not overly complex in flavour. My smashed peas/pancetta etc was delicious and benefitted from the suggested side of haloumi. The other dish, a Hanoi style sub was deemed to be "delicious". The wait wasn't too bad considering, prob 25 minutes. All in all a lovely spot. Big ups to the owners for giving Stone's Corner a couple of much needed hang-outs.

A fantastic little cafe! .... A fantastic little cafe!

I had walked past this place a few times on my morning adventures to get coffee in Stones Corner and today finally had the chance to stop in for breakfast.

On first impressions the staff were very friendly and welcoming and the decor was what you'd expect to find in any hipster-style cafe.

You won't find your standard dishes on the menu (eg. Eggs Benedict, Full Breakfast etc). What you will find is a selection of alternative yet extremely inviting dishes. I would have loved to try every one however opted for the 'Baked Eggs with Gringo salsa and Sour Dough' with a side of Haloumi. The entire dish was excellent - well presented and very tasty, as was my coffee.

I would recommend Lady Marmalade Cafe to anyone looking for a tasty, alternative-style breakfast or lunch.

Lady Marmalade Cafe - Greenslopes, Brisbane. What was once obviously a decrepit and under-utilsed space that once housed a corner store (there are still hints there for it) has been transformed into one of the most characteristic places around town. It is extensively popular with the local folk including heaps of bikers and regular people. Stone's Corner is not known for its food scene, so this is easily a stand-out but it makes well with its own.

The interior has something for almost anyone. There is the old school appeal of the long-gone corner store with the art-house cafe feel externally with posters for upcoming events and concerts. This restaurant is run by a self-proclaimed hippy couple thus the menu has a focus on fresh ingredients and diverse choices - both in cuisine and in paradigm of dish.

One definite stand out with the service is how they assign tables. Instead of the usual number route, they give you a toy animal (my table got a rhino). This is an entertaining idea and might keep young kids busy until the meals come out.

I went here with my dining buddy and we were lucky to be able to place the orders to one half of the couple. She was really friendly and out there with an ardent approach to the menu. Her reaction to my choice must have been one of the most enthusiastic I have ever seen from any waitress ever.

To eat, I got their breakfast specialty at the time. It was salted cod croquettes with a chorizo, rocket, cherry tomatoes, smashed peas and a mushroom sauce with a bit of haloumi on the side.To drink it was an extra-shot cappuccino in a mug.

This was a fantastic place for breakfast. The way they make the food's appearence on the plate is very inspired (the couple were on a cooking show) and dynamic. The tomatoes burst in my mouth with juicy sweetness, the tiny chorizo were not overpowering like the sausage tends to be and both sauces were different takes on the conventional condiments. They were really interesting and the grey one (which was mushroom) had me re-looking in interest.
However, the main parts are the haloumi and the croquettes. The haloumi was really soft and delicious, it was tender enough to cut and was just magnificent. The croquettes were reall well done and crumbed. The fish was soft and mixed with potato and all the subtle nuances of the fish flavour came through. It was really robust and a good dish that I am glad that I went and selected.

Their coffee is fantastic. The strength is what I would expect and they do everything right with the cappuccino - the froth, the chocolate dusting and the seperation of the froth and milk part. It is worth having a cup here.

Looking at the menu, there are plenty more great option to look at. Thank goodness they forwent the usual bacon & eggs style selections.

This is one place that does its own thing but it could well appeal to everyone. I could take my grandma and my high school friend (even my niece) here as there is food that would appeal to both. I sure as certainty would wish to come back here.

Cute & Cheerful Cafe. Normally I would find a place like Lady Marmalade only suitable for hippies - but it works. I love the mismatched cutlery and crockery, the handmade crochet blankets to warm your lap in the icy wind, the colourful chairs that come in all sorts of shapes and sizes, and the inside walls plastered with posters and other quirky artefacts - no empty white spaces here! It didn't feel dingy/dodgy as another reviewer commented, to me it was cute and welcoming - down to earth. The staff were happy friendly people who obviously don't mind working there! My cappuccino is a cup was excellent, but my second cappuccino in a mug was gritty (some problem with espresso extraction for mug size??). The field mushrooms on sourdough with fresh basil and feta (substituted for goats cheese) with a red pepper sauce on the side was a lovely meal and just the right size for a satisfying brunch that doesn't leave you feeling stuffed full. At only $10.50, big eaters could easily order a double serve if necessary. I'd like to return to try the baked eggs sometime.

Local we like. Presentation/flavour of my Friday Gourmet Pork Roll a few weeks ago was AMAZING! Not just a roll - an experience... with apple sauce, mayonnaise, fresh slices of apple and refreshing citrus salad accompanying the main event. I nibbled away at each delicious component and felt incredibly guilty that I was enjoying this treat whilst my partner was stuck at work. (he's the true foodie and I'm normally just along for the ride). It's kitsch. It's friendly. It's not huge - so treat yourself , your partner or your bestie but don't expect that they can accommodate a large party. When you go past on the weekend it's packed - I take this as a good sign they're doing something right!

Never disappoints! Love Lady M x. I discovered Lady M some time last year - and now would pop in at least once a week (hopefully more!) for coffee, sandwiches, breakfast or a little sweet. I have never been anything but impressed!

The coffees are always great and the staff are not at all precious - so if you like your coffee hot, they'll do it; a bit cooler, they can manage that; strong, sure, why not!

The food is always fresh and tasty. Some of the best meals are the deceptively simple ones - baked eggs and beans, for example. These guys know how to combine flavours so you get a delightful meal that is sure to satisfy.

I suppose the only downside of awesomeness is that sometimes they're a bit busy - but I've never had to wait more than a few minutes to score a table, and takeaway is usually handled pretty quickly. But be aware that the place is naturally fairly laid back - so if you're in a big hurry, I'd flag it with the staff and I'm sure they'll sort things out for you. However the relaxed attitude, lovely staff and retro-chill setting is all part of the appeal!

All in all, a fabulous experience!

Favourite go to brekkie place. Can't think of somewhere to go for brekkie? Lady Marmalade it is, within 20 minutes walk from my workplace its great for after work brekkie or lunch.

Its an odd little location, the end corner onto a busy road with a very corner shop shaped interior, but the eccentric decoration always ensures that there's something new to notice around it.

I really like the food here, I've had most of the menu at one stage or another and being a super picky eater who whinges about everything, that's saying a lot. The only complaints are the size of the breakfasts, a little small, I find i have to choose a sandwich from the display to fill myself up. Not that I really mind, the sandwiches are so tasty.

Their baked eggs are delicious with their toasty soldiers. Their mushroom brioche has some of the best wrinkly grey mushrooms in Brisbane and I love their haloumi sandwich with a massive pillow of haloumi draped over the top.

Delightfully Surprising Sunday Brunch. We ventured out last Sunday for a late hit of caffeine & brunch. Lady Marmalade delivered the goods. Counter service prompt, simple with smart choices menu menu with competitive prices. I ordered the haloumi sweet potato open sandwich & my man ordered the baked eggs. We will be back, well done LM.
PS We have different ideas on crispy bacon though!

Small and simple menu, with some delicious sounding specials. My coffee tasted a little bitter, but beyond that everything was great - especially the service. I had the Haloumi, pumpkin and pesto breakfast dish and was a very happy camper. The hash cake I ordered on the side was absolutely delicious, and secured a return visit in the near future.

All good with the exception of a short n curly at the bottom of my coffee cup! No offer made to refund, or another one on the house, which surprised me...

Essence of Brunch: Affected but Awesome. So, many people are looking for many thing in their cafe's. They want Breakfast options, but also savory lunch food. They want personality, but not to the point of being unwelcome. They want good, 'eating out' food, without the price. Lady Marmalade delivers.

There's a wee bit of a hipster air (Vintage tables, chintzy table markers) but ssh, it's OK, they're friendly and they don't judge. Seating inside and out is a wee bit cramped, and the tables are a wee bit small, but you'll deal.

There's a cabinet full of good gourmet versions of home food... Creamy lemon slice, chunky hedgehog, sammiches ready for toasting and salads all-a-gleam. If you're like me, however, you ignore the case and head for the menu.

Savory Mince comes on a slice of thick toast, all beefy lusciousness, biting tomato sauce and bright popping corn and peas. It's a little-known fact that peas are awesome when they pop. Also gracing some toast are buttery herbed mushrooms and tangy goats cheese, the mushrooms that excellent mix of moist flesh and crispy skin, rubbing each other with butter.

There's the obligatory Wagyu burger (with the obligatory being OK but not great), the obligatory fruit toast which I didn't bother to try because, seriously, it's fruit toast, and you can order cheese on the side. Their soup dish is called "A warm hug in a bowl".

Come to think of it, all the food is kinda "mum", but in a VERY good way. It's warm, comforting and the only problem is it's brunch sized. If you've got a bigger appetite, you might not be full. No worries, that leaves room for some slice...

Excellent breakfast. We've only been here to eat a handful of times but each time we're amazed at the quality of the food from such a little cafe. The quality of the ingredients and care they put into the preparation shows in the result.

Admittedly some of the staff could do with a bit more training in coffee making as is can very very hit and miss but, and I will rarely say this, the food more than makes up for it. Just get water or juice instead.

Great value, great Sunday breakfast!. What a hidden gem this is. Coffee was a good start to my morning. Breakfast choice was haloumi, tomato, spinach and roasted pumpkin on sourdough with a mint and chilli pesto. Absolutely delicious.
Breakfast and get togethers here doesn't break the bank and I love the decor. Will be returning, definitely!

A charming footnote in Stones Corner.. Lady Marmalade offers a wide range of beautiful dishes, the coffee is wonderful. Lady Marmalade has a homely atmosphere which is a result of its eclectic design. The soups are amazing, they feel like a hug in a bowl.

Lady Marmalade is definitely a new favourite breakfast spot for me (I’ve already booked a tentative return date with a girlfriend) and if you’re a Brisbane local you should definitely check it out if you haven’t already.

It's another one of those suburbia cafes, and although a bit smaller than I expected, it was quite a cute little place with windowsills lined with trinkets.  It took a while to get here by bus, so by the time we got there, we were famished! All three of us ordered the Saigon coffee, which is a novelty that just might be increasing in popularity...

S o how good is Lady Marmalade?! While the bunnies couldn't decide on which dish was best, we could decide on one thing, there would be no excuses on making a return visit.

Hanoi style steak sub. This was a version of a banh-mi, a baguette style sandwich which had sweet shredded beef with a sprout slaw, herbs, nam jim and a mayonnaise. There was a cute little snack of rice crackers on the side, which was a lovely little touch. I loved the sub, it was fresh and filling, and the meat was delicious.

Lady Marmalade was a really nice, cosy and friendly cafe that had a strong neighborhood feel. I heard the staff greet several customers like local regulars. I love that in a food establishment. The coffee was great and the food even better.

We visited just before the kitchen closed (at 1:30 ) on a Thursday - I wish we’d gotten there earlier Very nice open space with clean interior and stunning feature mural of a magnolia on the wall Really amazing piece of art I had the most delicious orange almond cake ( gluten free ) and a good hot coffee My friends had bacon and egg burgers which hit the spot. Good service and extremely quick

WOW, what a great lil find. The food was absolutely delicious and reasonably priced, while the service was fabulous. Thank Goodness we booked. I had the hash brown and my sister had the sweet pancakes, which was not as sweet as it looks. On point !!

Fantastic friendly service. Pancakes are my favourite breakfast treat - and the pancakes here didn't disappoint. I couldn't eat all the fairy floss..... but it looked great! Service was a little slow on the day we visited - but the wait was certainly worth it. Coffee was great too.

A very busy cafe in town. Friendly staff and service. Dog friendly cafe. Kids ordered egg Benny and they loved it. Hubby and I ordered burgers. Honestly, good presentation in general but burger was a little bit too sweet for me.

I've been wanting to go here for the longest time What took me so long? So today it was a breakfast burger and a genuine Stone's ginger beer The burger had loads of bacon, a fried egg and a hash brown with excellent bbq sauce and a brioche bun The service was attentive, friendly and intelligent Next time it will be the Middle Eastern breakfast plate.i suspect that might be 5 stars. To add to the fun there was a police chase of a crazy driver who then abandoned their car and ran thru the kitchen and out the customer entrance before being nicked and handcuffed. I am pleased to say there was no entertainment surcharge.
