Review Lamkin Lane Espresso Bar - Caloundra

Great coffee and unbelievably amazing food. At first when reading the menu, the food combinations can seem unusual but the chef is pure genius. I have eaten many meals here and the menu changes with the seasons. Every meal has been pure delight. Stay away from the basics and try something that sounds a little different, you won’t be disappointed.

Stumbled across Lamkin by chance and discovered one of the most outstanding meals my girlfriend and I have have experienced. We had the Bahn My, Thai Inspired Crumpet and The Mad Pumpkin (Vegan) all the flavours and food were fresh and left us with full and very content. The coffee was fantastic both the Filter and the Espresso. Price was great as well for what you get. Will definitely be coming back! If you're on the Sunshine Coast this has to be on your list to visit.

Absolutely beautiful. I ordered the Mad Pumpkin & I’ll tell you: this is one of the best plant based food I’ve ever had. My best friend ordered the truffled eggs benny, which was also wonderful. The cook & the staff are absolutely amazing. We also ordered coffee, which were delicious, good temperature & on our favourite oat milk. Im impressed with this cafe. Guys, make yourself a favour & pop in for a morning coffee & delicious food 🍲😋 Another good thing: they have parking available ☺️ Thank you Lamkin cafe, I had an amazing morning 🙏🏿

By far the best beetroot humus I've had so far on toast and the mango sorbet with the crumpets was too good kudos to the chef. Customer service was alright but definitely loved the portion size at such a good price overall very well done.

I truly loved food. Best burger and taco!!! I will definitely come back for those again. They were so good really I was looking for a great burger place not like simple and boring. This is the one I was looking for. No lie. You gotta try But one thing I wish is a little bit less sauce for tacos. Because the tofu, chicken and beef they were great but I couldn't feel much taste due to the sauce. I loved the sauce tho

Situated on such a cute lane! There are plenty of options in Caloundra for breakfast but if you HAVE to pick one, this one is a no-brainer. Coffee is genuinely great, solid flavours and smooth. Food was just as impressive- we were pleasantly surprised by how large the servings were for menu items that are only what- $15-20? On the Gold Coast where we’re from, cafes would be charging easily $10 extra of what they charge for food that is nowhere near as creative. It’s obvious that the chef has a lot of passion towards creating every dish, not only is the presentation outstanding but the flavours considered work deliciously together. We noticed that a lot of Asian fusion flavours were beautifully worked into the menu. Also worth mentioning is that they had a good selection of sweets at the front- croissants, tarts, cookies, etc it all looked REALLY good. Had we not already stopped by the pastry lab (AMAZING croissants FYI), I would have tried some here. Definitely my cafe of choice in Caloundra for our next holiday up to the SC.

Max Pumpkin was fantastic I really enjoyed their iced coffee too. Definitely try the max pumpkin a great meal.

Adorable decoration and atmosphere. Great food presentation. But definitely has a few points to improve: I ordered the baby avocado, the avocado hummus was delicious, but slice of bread could be thicker and less toasted, bacon has more quantity than quality. You have to get salt, pepper, cutlery, sugar and napkin before seating since they don’t give it to you.

Tucked away in a little laneway is Caloundra’s hidden gem. Exceptionally friendly staff who know their coffee. Plenty of single origins and all the crew are more than happy to educate any caffeine lover. Absolutely love the iced lattes that are bottled and ready to take with you wherever you like. It’s no wonder that this place rates so highly on Beanhunter. So happy to find such a great place visiting from Melbourne�

Seriously good coffee! Hunted around for a decent coffee in Caloundra and ended up finding Lamkin Lane cafe only to find possibly one of the best coffees I've ever had! I had the Fruit Tingle blend. Divine!

We regular Lamkin every few months when we're on the coast. Consistent and welcoming with timeless and simple decor that make our experience the best! Thanks! �

This place was the perfect place to go on our mini holiday at Caloundra. Yummy coffee and very quick service! We'll definitely be our go-to place when we visit

Love this place. The staff are so friendly and the coffee is amazing. Often frequently visit after our crossfit workout.

This is always a favorite place to go when I am in Caloundra the coffee is great and the service is always friendly.

Shame about the service. Half way through placing my order I walked out. I’m not paying for that attitude.

Thanks for the espresso in Rwanda beans this arvo - sooooooooooooooo gorgeous!!

Friendly staff, great coffee, great vibe ... we'll be back (oh, and did I mention they had melting moments? I haven't had those since I was a child!)

Very Good Coffee.....but terrible customer service & rude staff

Always friendly and of course, amazing coffee! Love this place :D

best coffee on the sunny coast! loved it. will definitely be back!

Constantly great coffee, very friendly staff and wonderful atmosphere.

Best coffee on the Coast and always a friendly atmosphere

Great coffee one of the best on the coast. Staff are lovely and you can sit inside or out.

Coffee is perfect. They use Maleny dairies Guernsey gold which makes the coffee delicious. Quick service and great local coffee house.

Great coffee every time, and I love the range of beans to choose from. Yum!

Great coffee I think it organic but it taste great seats out side are a little hill billy thou , but over all good

A little piece of Berlin hidden away in Caloundra. Amazing focus on the craft of coffee without all the snobbery some places have. Just perfection in a coffee cup.

Fantastic coffee. Located just behind the main street of Caloundra. You can buy bags of specialty coffee to take home, and there is cold brew in the fridge.

Was rather disappointed with my soy flat white, but I did go there with high hope after reading its google reviews. Not many places steam soy milk well and unfortunately here too. I thoroughly enjoy the coffee after I had to remove the foul tasting soy curd on top - something I found myself doing a lot in sunny Coast cafes

Great coffee in the heart of Caloundra and a really handy series of parking bays out the back so you can duck in for a takeaway with paying for parking. <br/><br/>Nice small eats on hand too, but it's all about the coffee here and it's really good.

The baristas in this funky little cafe just off the main street in Caloundra make excellent coffee. The coffee was well extracted and the coffee/milk distribution was perfect.

Very chilled out atmosphere. Great variety of coffee and staff are happy to accommodate to specific requests. If you want something to nibble on, you have to go early as things sell out fast.

Absolutely love the coffee here, in my opinion it's the best in Caloundra, and the staff are wonderful as well. My only complaint is that it closes at midday on weekends 😭

Our first stop on a holiday to Caloundra was for coffee obviously and this being number 1 on bean hunter and zomato we had high expectations. The aroma when we entered hit my senses for six. Loved the off the street location and very chilled environment. Coffee was delicious and snacks look inviting too

Best coffee in Coloundra. When you walk in you can smell the beautiful aromas of quality coffee beans on par with some of the best Melbourne coffees. The small sweets are delicious too. I actually enjoyed my partner's soy latte even though I don't normally like coffee.

certainly the coolest joint for coffee in Caloundra.. takeaway was all I had here and was a good brew. no sea views, but worth finding......

On this morning the 30th of May the coffee served to me was sour in taste. Not sure if this is a glitch or how there coffee normally is?

Best Coffee in Caloundra! On holidays here and located this little gem using "Bean Hunter" ap. Best Birthday Coffee ever! From Barristas who really know and understand coffee. It's evident from their enthusiasm that they really are passionate about coffee and truly care about their customers opinions. It was so good that we ended up following up our tradional coffees with 2 x cold pressed varieties. Can recommend the Ethiopean and the PNG. Will be back today for another coffee hit :-)

Superb coffee. The coffee is amazing, and with a selection of 5 types including single origin and blends there's a taste for every coffee lover. The barrista's are obviously passionate about their trade and are happy to talk to their customers about everything coffee. A tasteful alternative setting coupled with friendly staff and fantastic coffee make this place the best i have found on the Sunny Coast.

Coffee. Almond milk, zymal (lactose free) & soy milk available.<br/><br/><br/>-----14 Dec, 2014-----<br/><br/>Coffee. Almond milk long mac -traditional

Quality in Coffee. Ordering a round of coffees with family, I was struck by the starkness of the venue's surroundings at the end of a lane, at the edge of industry and with outdoor tables made from wooden cable carriers. However the number of clientele and the quality of the coffee tell the story. Both our long blacks and short black were well presented and evidenced time in their preparation. All coffees were smooth in flavour with a good acid balance and a lack of bitter aftertaste. All in all very good coffee gives credence to the Lambkin Lane's local reputation as the best coffee in Caloundra - from anecdotal sources as it has very good competition nearby at the Grenhouse cafe. A good range of shortbreads, petits fours and cakes are also available.

Awesome Coffee!!!!!!!!. Finally a place on the Sunshine Coast that knows how to make awesome coffee!!!!

Best coffee. I'm a bit of a coffee snob, and I'd like to say that Lamkin lane has the most amazing coffee. Choose from several different specialty coffees. Consistently perfect coffee and the staff are friendly and happy to talk to you about the different blends. The fresh cold press iced coffee is delicious. Highly recommended

Amazingly good coffee. Not an expert, but I know what I like and this is the best coffee I've tasted in ages. Tried all blends and single origin over the course of a two week holiday and was constantly impressed with seriously good coffee. Friendly service.
