Eating Out and About
And just in case you are in the mood for a change of scenery, there are always local restaurants and pub meals available at the nearby villages of Glass House Mountains, Beerwah and Landsborough. 

​Coffee and cake within 5 minutes walk of the Gar - at Lookout Cafe. Rarely does it get much better than this, with magnificent views overlooking mango trees, open paddocks and grazing families of kangaroos. And if you want to walk off some of that cake afterwards, it is only a 10 minute walk up the road to the famous Glass House Lookout with its 270 degree vista of the Glass House Mountains, Sunshine Coast, Pumicestone Passage and Bribie Island.
