Banksia Cafe - South Plaza

Not very allergy friendly at all. Very disappointed in how we were treated when trying to learn what I could eat. I felt like an inconvenience they were trying to get to move on. This was our first visit. Don’t have plans to return.

The food and service has been consistently good over the years. They're inside of a long space with concrete floors, a concrete wall, and a concrete ceiling, so it will be noisy.

Not a great place, have heard bad things about management and overall not impressed.

Saw this place on diners, drive-ins and dives. Not sure I would have ever tried this type of food but it looked so good. I tried the pork and fennel sausage roll as seen on TV and a side of the soup of the day. I can't remember what the soup was but it was out of this world and full of flavor. The pork and fennel sausage roll was one of those dishes where you take the first bite and your eyes roll into the back of your head and you think you have died and gone to heaven. I definitely will be back as the menu has so many other things I want to try.

Amazing food and awesome service. We stumbled on it for brunch (the ricotta hotcakes were amazing), and ended up going back for dinner the next day. We had the Kangaroo loin, which was delicious!

Best Biscuits and Gravy on the planet.

Had the gluten free breakfast sandwich - honestly a pleasant surprise. The GF bread was actually really solid (which is rare), the food was tasty overall, and the atmosphere was great.

Love this place, for sure feel like it is a lesser known spot with always consistently good food.

Ricotta hotcakes and the breakfast burrito are my favorite two breakfast items in all of KC. Absolutely to die for! Very modern environment with lots of plants

Amazing pastries & coffee with the friendliest staff! We will be back!!

First visit, clean space, concise menu, and fresh menu items made daily! The cashier/host was very informative and spirited! Although I kept it simple, she eagerly answered all my questions pertaining to their menu. I recommend them for a quiet lunch and a cozy space.

Loved this Australian café near The Plaza in KC. Great meat pies - I got the Greek Lamb. Coffee was decent and the lamington hit the spot for us Aussies so far from home.

Chicken Banh mi: 100% amazing, no notes, perfect sandwich, perfect lunch.

Vegemite Toast: you either love it or hate it

Lamington: OMG it’s like heavenly baby angels coming down to dance sweetly on my tongue; offering a precious whisper of coconut blowing gently over the delicious valley of chocolate and rolling hills of sponge and jam.

Coffee: Great

Service: Amazing

Snickerdoodle: My kid loved it
