Tucked away in the lush Boambee Valley, Garden Mania is one of Coffs locals’ best kept secrets — and home to the much-loved Secret Garden Café.
Start with a coffee or long lunch beneath the giant fig trees, where dappled light, birdsong and garden surrounds create a truly relaxing escape. From there, wander through our nursery and curated retail spaces, where plants, pots and beautiful lifestyle pieces are waiting to be discovered.
With winding garden paths, ever-changing displays and something new around every corner, it’s a place to slow down, explore and enjoy.
Just minutes off the highway with plenty of shaded parking, Garden Mania is the perfect place to pause, wander and stay a little longer than planned.
At Secret Garden Cafe, relax and enjoy your coffee beneath the giant fig trees, or gather with friends for a leisurely breakfast or lunch. Known as a Coffs hidden gem, it’s a peaceful, welcoming space serving amazing, real food and excellent coffee.
