Balance & Blend Cafe

Balance & Blend in Coorparoo is a casual, chic cafe offering delicious all-day brunch along with excellent coffee and a selection of fine wine from the Granite Belt.

A sibling for Balancing Heart Vineyard in Wyberba (30 minutes drive from Stanthorpe) in the Southern Downs region, Balance & Blend is a cafe/satellite cellar door where customers can pick up a nice bottle of handcrafted red or white wine while brunching. 

The concise all-day brunch menu includes breakast faves, from eggs (scrambled or poached) on toast, to eggs Benedict with your choice or ham, bacon or mushroom, and sliced avocado on sourdough with feta, pepitas and balsamic glaze.

Sweet tooths are catered for with a French toasted croissant served with vanilla ice-cream, maple syrup and seasonal berries. Or indulge with one of the cafe's delightful sweet treats - Mango Weis slice, Snickers Crunch or Lemon Tart to name a few. 

Lunch, served from 11am, includes fresh sandwiches and toasties such as an Avocado Melt (open toastie with avocado, mozzarella, basil pesto and sundried tomato on sourdough), as well as B&B chicken or B&B Angus beef burger served with fries.

The cafe is child-friendly with a Kids Menu consisting of bacon and egg on toast, mini French toast or coconut yoghurt bowl served with a sprinkle of granola and fresh fruit salad. 

There are two coffees on pour including a B&B blend and Colombian single origin. Besides coffee, there are loose leaf teas, hot chocolate, spiced chai latte, cold pressed juices, frappes and milkshakes.  

The cafe is currently open daily from 6am to 4pm but will extend its hours in the near future to transform into a wine bar by night. Follow Balance & Blend on Facebook to stay up do date.
