French & Mor, Albany Creek
Imagine a cabinet full of bright cakes and pastries, European bread baskets and coffee and new flowers. You 're not in a cafe in Paris, but you may be close.
French and Mor is a delicious Parisian slice and the perfect place to enjoy a comfortable breakfast , lunch or special occasion. For nearly nine years, the bakery, patisserie, and high tea cafe have been open and owner Paul Jones has worked hard to create something different.
With 15 varieties of cakes and sweets exclusively from Le Bon Choix as well as eight delicious flavours of macaroons.
Interestingly, Paul is not a sweet tooth. “I’m more savoury, which is probably a good thing,” he laughs.
The cafe’s modern French high tea expertly combines both with a selection of T2 teas and Elixir coffee.
“It’s all about colour and it’s different,” he says.
