You’ll love SoMa SoMa Espresso, Gympie

SoMa SoMa Espresso opened in Mellor Street, Gympie earlier this year. Long before I had the chance to visit I had heard about their coffee. At that stage, they were still waiting on their food service permits (etc, snore) but the coffee was an immediate and huge hit. Firstly because it was GOOD, and secondly because it was so CHEAP. A large coffee for well under $5, can’t argue with that.

Flash forward a few months and everything has fallen into place for the team.

Food is pumping and the all day menu means food comes out quick. Which, for the lunch crowd is important and in my experience can be somewhat lacking around town. I’m all for a long lunch, but sometimes I don’t have the time. Being able to have my food on the table quickly works for me.

Plus, they are now open Friday evenings with wine and tapas. As far as I’m concerned, that makes it perfect. Wine and little plates of food, I’m in! And if you want to stay up to date with what the team are doing, make sure you like the SoMa SoMa Espresso Facebook page.

SoMa SoMa Espresso is just what we were waiting for. It’s an Instagrammable place (way essential) to get great coffee and meet up. Get there early for the best parks, trust me. If you’re coming through Gympie, or live here (we should be friends!), then make sure you put aside some time to give this cafe a go.

But what to eat?

I highly recommend the pesto pasta, the quiche (always yum!), and smashed avocado with the poached eggs. Heck, all the extras with the smashed avo if you’re in the mood (everything from pancetta to haloumi). Don’t forget the coffee. Make sure you get a coffee. It really is something to write home about. Then kick back, enjoy the atmosphere and thank your lucky stars that I gave you the heads up. Haha. You’re welcome.

Where should Mr Suger and I head to next?

Farmer & Sun Marketplace Cafe

Farmer & Sun Marketplace Cafe

There’s a place not far from our new house that sells fruit and vegetables like you woke up at dawn and visited a farmer’s market as the sun peaks over the horizon. But you know, all day long. That goodness, we all know I’m not a morning person. And that store, Farmer and Sun recently opened their new cafe. And short version, it’s AWESOME.

How could it not be, right?

Fresh produce, access to as much of it as they like. Throw in some great coffee, juices and smoothies and the morning tea/lunch crowd have their new favourite place to be. I talked about Epiphany Coffee a while back, they have since opened their own storefront, and it’s like that. It’s a local, whole food loving, amazing place to call home. I’m proud that both these places exist in my hometown. I hope you’ll visit them. And for now, let’s check out MORE photos of the newly renovated and open Farmer and Sun market place and cafe.

And it just so happens that when I visited was my nephew Ashton’s birthday! The little man was two. TWO. Can you even believe that? Mr Suger and I are so proud to have witnessed so much of the last year of his growth. He is this amazing little man who we are proud to have as part of our crew. And that kid, well he knows a good smoothie when he sees one. I mean, look at that face…

Want to visit Farmer & Sun? Head to the Southside Town Centre any time you’re in the area. Heck, maybe we’ll see you there. They are practically our local haunt now. Since we live around the corner and all that. If that’s just too far from home, visit their Facebook page and follow along.
