If you're hunting for a local gem tucked away in the industrial pockets of Sumner, Lumbr Café is the place to be. A perfect blend of laid-back vibes, stellar coffee, and a surprisingly innovative food menu, Lumbr is one of those places that instantly makes you feel like a regular—even on your first visit. Ambience & Vibe Set in a semi-industrial location, Lumbr manages to create a warm, rustic, and welcoming atmosphere. Think polished concrete floors, exposed timber, hanging greenery, and chilled acoustic tunes humming in the background. Whether you're there for a quiet solo coffee, a work meeting, or a catch-up with friends, the seating is versatile—indoor, outdoor, and even a few cozy corners for those needing a moment of stillness. Coffee The coffee here is consistently outstanding. Whether you're a flat white purist, a long black enthusiast, or chasing the perfect batch brew, the baristas at Lumbr deliver with care and precision. The beans are locally roasted, and the flavour profile leans toward nutty, chocolatey notes with a smooth finish. Iced lattes on hot days are particularly refreshing and never watered down—just strong, creamy, and ice-cold perfection. Food The menu strikes a perfect balance between classic brunch staples and creative twists. Highlights include: Smashed Avo with Beetroot Hummus – vibrant, hearty, and beautifully plated. Spicy Chicken Burger – crispy fried chicken with a tangy slaw and housemade aioli on a toasted milk bun. Absolutely addictive. Lumbr Brekkie Roll – packed with bacon, egg, hash brown, and a signature chutney—perfect for on-the-go. Seasonal Salad Bowls – generous, fresh, and flavour-packed. Ideal for a light but satisfying option. They also cater to dietary needs with plenty of GF, vegan, and vegetarian options. Baked Goods & Treats The baked selection is always fresh and enticing—muffins, brownies, croissants, and rotating specialty slices. Their Biscoff cheesecake and gluten-free raspberry almond slice are crowd favourites. Service The service at Lumbr is what truly sets it apart. The team is friendly, efficient, and genuinely passionate about what they do. They remember names and orders, offer great recommendations, and always deliver with a smile. The vibe is never rushed, even during peak times. ???? Parking Plenty of parking right outside or nearby, which is a huge bonus in this area. Final Thoughts: Lumbr Café is one of Sumner’s best-kept secrets—a perfect go-to for quality coffee, delicious food, and relaxed vibes. Whether you're a local tradie, a remote worker, or just exploring the area, Lumbr is worth the detour.

Perfect! Food was delicious, coffee good and the service was friendly and efficient! Loved my breakfast gnocci special, and my partner and daughter reported the Eggs Benny on the waffle base was on point. Little out of the way but it's worth it if you're in Centenary area.

Lumbr Café is a hidden gem that’s definitely worth a visit. The food was absolutely delicious, with fresh ingredients and great flavors that made every bite enjoyable. The coffee was smooth and well-made. One of the best things about Lumbr is that it’s dog friendly, making it a perfect spot for pet owners looking for a relaxed place to enjoy a meal. They even made boy @brilliantbutters his own puppucino. The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming, with a friendly vibe.

Decided to finally give Lumbr a try yesterday, TLDR we’ll be back again asap! My partner and I were greeted promptly by a super friendly and warm guy who poured us cold waters. He let us know we had come during community hour, so all of our house made drinks were free which I think is such a cool initiative. We ordered coffees and breakfast, both of which came relatively fast. The coffees were served with bite sized brownie portions which is such a lovely touch, and yummy! My iced latte was one of the best I’ve had in months Our meals were hot, presented well and most importantly, tasty! We had the house beans with feta and good old faithful bacon and eggs. Sometimes the classics are the way to go and these didn’t disappoint. The environment was relaxed and welcoming, I watched as multiple customers were greeted and served in a friendly manner each time and everyone was addressed by name. We were checked on throughout our meal and it was super affordable!! Customer service was well rounded and consistent by all staff we encountered. We will definitely be back again!

Lumbr Cafe is one of the rarest gems you'll find in Brisbane. We stumbled upon the store and thank the heavens we did! Everything was PERFECTION. They recently just expanded to a full brunch menu - and it's divine. Don't sleep on the pulled pork with pita bread - it is some of the best food I've ever had. We also had the brioche french toast which was gorgeously presented and was just as beautiful on the palate. Coffee is great too but definitely get the dirty chai - it is like a warm hug in a mug. Carrot cake to top it off and it was moist and not too sweet which was perfect. The lady heated it up just a tad bit for us. We are excited to come back to try their other stuff. I wish this new cafe all the very best. Hurry here before they blow up!!!
