GPO Café & Bar

Brisbane & Around


Set in Towoomba's heritage-listed old post office – complete with relaxing verandah and an intimate dining room – GPO serves tasty (though not especially outstanding) global fare. Expect the likes of avocado on toasted Turkish bread for breakfast, vegetarian stack with halloumi and caramelised onion for lunch, and a predominantly Thai dinner menu.

You'll find better coffee elsewhere in town.
