Ginger & Lime is Redland's little secret, a cute café tucked away on Birkdale Road in the bayside suburb serving top-notch food, well-brewed Di Bella coffee and West End Tea.    

Open daily for breakfast and lunch, Ginger and Lime offers indoor and outdoor dining with modern décor including sleek, blonde timber furniture.
