Clove N' Honey Cafe
Stones Corner
Clove n' Honey is a brand-new, specialty coffee cafe in Stones Corner serving delicious foodie fare for breakfast and lunch.
Perched at the entrance of Stones Corner Village, Clove n' Honey sits in prime position overlooking Logan Road, with tables spilling out onto an undercover veranda.
The all day menu boasts breakfast classics with a twist such as purple smashed avocado and Mr Benne - poached eggs with lemon butter hollandaise on rustic rosti, topped with wonton crisp, served with baby spinach and beetroot puree.
Otherwise, there's traditional free-range eggs on artisan sourdough, pea and halloumi fritters with za'atar poached eggs, fresh herbs, mint sauce and lemon labne, and for sweet tooths - honey waffles served with fresh ricotta, Persian rose fairy floss, seasonal fruit, lemon curd and Canadian maple syrup.
If you're craving a burger, there's the Morning Star (juicy beef burger with smoked bacon, free-range egg, Swiss cheese, fig and tomato chutney and chipotle mayo on a milk bun), Japanese Fried Chicken (with mango chutney, sriracha aioli and pickled ginger) and Egyptian Magic (falafel, Swiss mushroom, avocado and smoked hummus on a vegan bun).
Coffee on pour is by roasted locally by Blue Sky Coffee including the micro-roastery's Midnight Oil blend, with single origins on rotation, best accompanied by a flaky French pastry which are delivered to the cafe fresh each morning.
Besides expertly brewed coffee, there are specialty lattes, organic teas, hot chocolate, cold pressed juices, milkshakes and superfood smoothies.
Nice to know - Clove n' Honey is kid-friendly with bacon and eggs on artisan sourdough and pancakes with maple syrup on offer for the littlies.
