    Great laid back friendly atmosphere at this well established cafe. Situated close to the ocean at Nobby Beach with indoor & outdoor seating & great food in a rustic setting. Coffee is also a winner, smooth & rich. We ordered the Navajo breakfast & burrito bowl. Both were healthy with tasty fresh produce.

    Wonderful stop over on my walk from Broadbeach. Great layout with plenty of indoor and outdoor options. The big open windows take advantage of the breeze. Staff are efficient and the coffee and food was on point. Plus they have the new tablet ordering that makes it so much easier and quicker to get exactly what you want. Much easier than taking through masks. Great cafe!

    This is a cozy cafe right next to the ocean. The menu consists of classic brunch dishes and lunches with a small twist. The BSKT Breaky Salad and Byron Bay Halloumi Salad were absolutely divine! Unfortunately, no one in the party liked Nana Choc Nut Pancakes.

    Nice enough breakfast with a good range of choices. Unfortunately, even though the food came out quickly after ordering, it was quite cool. The other thing which grates a bit was the prices for "extras" $6 for bacon, $2 to have eggs scrambled instead of fried. On the plus side, staff were fantastic.

    Recently turned up for lunch. Service was prompt and the food arrived very quickly. The lady who delivered the food was a delight; bright and cheery and funny. My partner had the Byron Bay Halloumi, Fresh Garden Leaves, Spiced Chickpeas, Roast Sweet Potato,Cherry Tomatoes, Cucumber, Half Avocado, Toasted Seed Dukkah, Creamy Herb & Paprika Dressing...very nice. I had the Vegan Huevos Rancheros, Corn Tortilla, Breaky Beans, Avo Salsa, Jalapeno, Chipotle Mayo, Fresh Greens & Spiced Tofu Scramble...absolutely fantastic. Coffee and tea were nice and hot. My latte with beetroot and cocoa was quite drinkable but essentially flavourless. Oh well, at least I tried something different. Menu was varied and should suit most people. My usual gripe about background music remains. Terrible choice, very poor quality, way too loud. Oh well. I still rated the place Well worth a visit. In response to the owners reply, thanks for the heads up regarding music...will know for next time...thank you

    3 of us had a great breakfast here, we had various items off the menu, and everything was delicious at reasonable prices. Beautiful ambience and great service.

    What a great cafe- a cool, fun vibe and really friendly staff- they are all just so lovely. I ordered the Byron Bay grilled halloumi salad and it was so delicious- also just a tip - add the salmon on top - it’s the perfect healthy dish to keep you fuelled up. It’s such a sunny spot for a delicious brunch with your friends or a working lunch on the go. Try it - you won’t regret it!

    I really love this cafe I have come here regularly for years. The staff always go above and beyond and so many healthy options for food and they cater to my fussy coffee requests. They are really friendly, professional and it feels like you are greeted by family with a smile each day. Recommend for a take away and a beach walk or dine in with great vibes and fresh air!

    Can make your own açaí bowl is good. Coffee was good. Breakfast was good value.

  • 2/5 ian t. 4 months ago on Google
    Well sorry but the eggs Benedict was pretty poor. The bacon was rolled up in a clump and very dry. Like it had been cooked a long time ago. Eggs well cooked. The sourdour toast was pretty stale. Overall from what I'd heard the meal was below expectations. I can't say the coffee was good either, it was also very plain. A bit disappointed.

  • 5/5 Roberto Ubilla M. 5 months ago on Google
    The staff was friendly and the venue was comfortable. Had the Miso Salmon which was well cooked and tasty, but nothing extraordinary. I would recommend coming here if you are looking for a nice meal during a beach day, especially if you have a dog as they are treated really well.

    Always a nice place to get brunch, take my dog and catch up with friends. The food and coffee is always great. They have little plates for dogs with a biscuit and pupachino which is cute!

    Came back for the second time to this cafe as I had a good experience the first time and the food is good. Just disappointing customer service, I accidentally knocked over my $7 orange juice (not freshly pressed juice so that’s quite expensive for juice from a bottle) after just one sip. The staff were quite rude saying I had to order another one on the QR code app and not offer any alternative. I think for an orange juice that was from a bottle it could have been nice to offer to replace or even do it at half cost or offer some kind of alternative (cafes replace coffees at all the time if something happened!). I just wish the staff was a bit nicer and more understanding of it being an unfortunate accident after just one sip. We did ask twice very nicely and apologised for knocking it over but I didn’t feel like arguing in the cafe when met with such poor customer service. Will definitely not come back and not recommend to other people.

    We had a burrito bowl and a vegan huevos rancheros. Both were delicious. The service was excellent and they were very friendly and helpful. Great place for breakfast or lunch.

  • 4/5 Jani S. 1 year ago on Google
    Very nice, friendly staff and really good coffee. The burrito was nice, but exactly what I expected. The eggs/benny ordered at the next table looked awesome. Went for a breakky this morning and was a bit disappointed with the Mashed Avo. Lacked a bit of flavour and the composition of the portion was not close to perfect. Dry bread vs. avo ratio left more to hope for. Also the baby spinach was looking for its purpose on the plate.

    I’ve been here a handful of times over the last few years, and every time I visit, I’m so glad I did. The front of house staff person that greeted us on arrival at the register for seating was extremely pleasant, and even a little bit funny, which made me feel welcome straight away. She suggested we sit outdoors next to the play area where my kids could exert themselves, while I enjoyed a “hot” drink - top idea! I ordered the breakfast salad and it had just the right hit of spices which made every mouthful exciting. The halloumi was perfectly cooked (something not all venues get right in my experience) and presentation was exceptional. There was enough space to accommodate my pram, and a high chair was provided for my toddler. My top pick of cafes along the coast and I look forward to returning again next time I’m at the GC.

    🍳 bskt healthy benny 🎃 bskt breaky salad 🏠: @bsktwholefoods @bsktcafe 📍: Nobby Beach, Gold Coast 📝: A hip beachside spot with industrial-chic decor in Nobby Beach, Gold Coast offering wholesome and organic Modern Australian food. ❤️: Have you ever had A healthy eggs benny before? Try BSKT’s benny with fresh spinach, poached eggs, toast, choice of grilled ham, smoked salmon, bacon or vego, topped with Kalenaise or Turmeric Béarnaise. Also got the BSKT Breaky Salad because I’m a massive roast pumpkin fan.

  • 3/5 Hansoloai 1 year ago on Google
    Portions are what you would expect for a cafe so close to the beach. Wouldn’t call the breakfast a big breakfast. I’d call it the BSKT breakfast, my eggs were a bit over cooked. The kids playground doesn’t have a lockable door. Which can be troublesome for safety. Staff are friendly and and the atmosphere is great.

    Very good coffee and delicious menu. The food took a little while to show up but did not disappoint. It’s only when we left we realize there was another extremely busy section at the back. I wish my pull pork burger and sweet potato fries never ended!

  • 5/5 Chloe Cameron (Reviewed by C. 2 years ago on Google
    I love a good acai while here on the GC and BSKT's acai stand did not disappoint me. With a huge variety of customisable combinations of fruit, granola, and toppings I was able to get something that perfectly suited the mood I was in. I got an acai with all the fruit, vegan granola, coconut flakes, cacao nibs, honey roasted oats, and honey on top. It was truly delectable and very beautifully presented. It's a busy little spot but we still received good service from staff. The pricing was fairly steep for the size, but I would pay it again considering how good it was. Thanks staff ☺️

    This was a lovely find during a short stay at Nobby’s Beach. It’s a perfect place for an early morning coffee on your morning walk. We also dropped back for breakfast on a weekday morning. There’s a innovative menu to suit all tastes and cafe promotes itself as a health cafe. Certainly, there are many choices with healthy ingredients . Ordering is via a tablet which is an easy process. Definitely worth a visit if you are in the area.

    We ate here shortly after arriving on the Gold Coast. Food was excellent, service was great and we bought coffee from here every day during our stay and it was superb. Best coffee on the Gold Coast without doubt!

  • 4/5 Paul H. 1 year ago on Google
    Had the chicken burger with sweet potato chips. Nice meal. The coffee was good too. The staff were really friendly and helpful. The other meal we had was the salmon with miso and honey sauce which was too sweet for us and the flavour overpowered the salmon.
