Imagine If anything was possible?!? Well it certainly is with Molly at Imagine If Community Cafe. Molly has exceeded all expectations today organising the catering and opening her venue for Emma & Ben’s Baby Shower. The arrangement of exquisite canapés and decadent sweet treats was a sights to behold. The array of flavours was…well yum! The deck was the perfect location and Spring was in the air. If you haven’t got an event coming up don’t worry, you can always call in for one of the best a coffees on the Coast

Where else can you find such a beautiful setting—nestled amongst manicured gardens, with a perfect mix of shade and sunlight, a fenced play area for children, and the peaceful ambience of a quiet community centre in the charming Artesian Wing, Building D? Its inviting decking overlooks lush greenery, creating a truly relaxing escape. The food is delightful, the service warm and charming—and what makes it even more special is that it’s run by the Iris Foundation, a wonderful local charity. You really can’t go wrong. Located at 15 Battley Avenue, it offers free parking both on the street and onsite. Truly, it ticks all the boxes. 🌿✨

I was a little unsure given the lack of reviews but this cafe is a real literal hidden gem! The coffee was great and the muffin was wonderful. Sitting on the deck I enjoyed the sunshine and lake glimpses. Right by the deck is the community centre’s fenced playground so perfect for kids to play while adults have a coffee.

Imagine If Community Cafe is such a welcoming spot! The coffee is fantastic, and it’s the perfect place for a quick bite or a catch-up with friends. The children’s playground is a bonus, and the whole vibe makes you feel like part of the community. Definitely a place to visit!
