Gather and Feast, Caboolture

This Caboolture cafés name, Gather and Feast, perfectly describes owner Candice’s goal of keeping it simple when she opened the doors.

“I like to gather a community and feast on beautiful food. We have created a community here,” she says.

Between the online presence and the physical sense this is an engaged community, with majority of the customers through the door resulting from their Instagram audience.

Since she was 15 years old, Candice has been in hospitality and had a food truck specialising in vegan cuisine before opening her own cafe last March.

Vegan cuisine and vegan alternatives feature prominently on the menu, but there are choices for those looking for something more indulgent, like a cheeseburger eggs Benedict.

Candice does all of it on site, except the bread, and thrives on an ever-changing menu and creates art on a plate.

“I like to make food look pretty and enticing,” she explains.

Candice enjoys catching her customers by surprise and loves it when they take the time to thanks her for her delicious creations, which apparently, happens a lot.

“I get a lot of thanks here,” she says.

They use Saturdays as their “re-invention” days, when the team gathers to work out the two specials which are recreations of something already on the menu. A great example is the Golden Gaytime Pancakes.

“That’s the day for indulgence. It’s hard to find a seat on Saturdays,” Candice says.

Gather and Feast serves Botanica Organic free trade coffee.

It is open Monday to Friday from 6.30am-2.30pm; and Saturday from 7.30am-1pm.
