Delicious lunch meals and coffee. Come here if you love cheese and gelato. Lots of produce available on the walls as well. Very busy at lunch time. Grazing board was amazing but maybe order extra bread with it. Staff happy to put tables together.
A weekend away; we took a drive to Maleny and it was time for lunch. We stepped into Maleny Food Co. – a large, airy, light space which used to be the newsagent apparently. We ordered at the counter, and both chose the smoked salmon bagel, which was delicious. Freshly baked that morning, the poppy seed topped bagel was tender inside and crunchy outside. In fact, it was one of the best bagels I’ve had. The salmon and cream cheese were plentiful, and tasty. There were spinach leaves too, if you’re keen on greens. I had a cappuccino, while hubby drank a strawberry milkshake. My coffee was fine, and he enjoyed his cold, nicely-berried shake. There is a fromagerie (cheese room) at the front, and shelves full of food goodies. We really enjoyed the bright, light atmosphere and the friendly service. Oh yes, and gelati too! And I nearly forgot the orange and almond cake; I found it a bit dense but hubby loved it. All up, a pleasant break.

Had a wonderful breakfast that although was a bit pricey ($28) was well made and so much of it !
Service was friendly and the location- warm winter sun was perfect
Scrambled eggs were creamy and buttery
Lovely cafe with gluten free options included on the menu. We enjoyed the burger, one standard (in the background) and one gluten in the foreground.
Maleny Food Co. will be a regular pit stop when we travel through town.
What a busy, busy place. The staff can barely keep up at lunch time. Still, kept their cool and did manage to serve everyone. Tasty food, and their cheese tasting room can get very busy. Bought some cheeses. Had the lychee ice cream; divine.
Could not rate this place higher, we had ordered a cake that was ruined by a restaurant so we went in the next day to Maleny Food and Co to see if we could get the cake remade the morning of and the staff were so lovely and remade the cake for us on the day! Such a lovely experience with this company, we will surely be back!
We only had gelato here & it wasn’t a busy time when we were there. They have good range of flavours. The ice cream was really delicious & creamy. Although we didn’t get anything from the fromagerie, it looks like they have nice selection of cheeses & cured meat too. Will check it out next time.
Mango gelato was perfect, big serve, cherry ripe ice cream was also excellent. Great selection of produce from local suppliers, especially cheese and salami in the separate cool room. Local and international cheeses. If you don't have time to visit Kenilworth dairy, then go here. No tasting, but lots of choice. Lots of jams pickles etc.
