About Lumi Lane

Just on the edge of Lightsview and Northgate, this cafe offers a relaxed and airy spot where locals often drop in for breakfast or lunch. The menu is a welcoming mix of brunch classics like eggs benedict and labneh eggs, alongside sweet options such as pancakes and a variety of freshly baked breads. It’s the kind of place where you can enjoy everything from a quick bite to a leisurely brunch, paired with a thoughtfully brewed coffee or one of their varied teas.

Inside, the atmosphere feels clean and bright, with a cozy, casual vibe that suits solo diners working on their laptops or groups gathering for weekend brunch. You’ll find a mix of families with kids — supported by a kids' menu and high chairs — alongside those who appreciate healthy, organic, and vegan-friendly meals. The outdoor seating area adds to the relaxed, friendly feel, especially when the weather is mild.

The staff usually come across as approachable and helpful, contributing to an overall welcoming environment. Parking is convenient, and there’s easy access for those requiring wheelchair facilities as well as dog-friendly outdoor spaces. With no table service, it keeps things straightforward and unpretentious.

People tend to appreciate this spot for its range of options—from small plates and prepared foods to happy hour drinks including beer, cocktails, and wine. Whether you’re in for a casual catch-up, a working session with coffee close at hand, or a family outing, the cafe offers a calm local experience away from the busier, more commercial spots nearby.

Lumi Lane is a great cafe located on the cusp of Lightsview and Northgate. The menu has a good range of options, and the pricing is quite on par with most cafes in the surrounding suburbs. We enjoyed the chicken burger and chips, and have had breakfasts, rolls/wraps and coffees here before too. The staff are kind and the decor is nice also. You can sit inside or outside and there is lots of parking within the Drakes carpark. Friends have also commented that the açai bowls and matcha are great here too but i'm yet to try them myself.

Fantastic coffee house, the kitchen was closing, however they filled our orders. My Salmon Royal was yummy, no Brioche so I had a Bagel, OMG the Bagel was soooo fresh and the chilli eggs with Salmon that my daughter had looked scrumptious. We will definitely come again, earlier.

This was my fourth visit to Lumi Lane and my wife's second. We enjoyed having a spontaneous lunch on the go here today. Cafe was clean and bright. Service was friendly, the atmosphere was pleasant and food was fresh and delicious. Chili eggs and Smashed Avocado were both on point, with eggs cooked perfectly. Almond cappuccino and spiced dirty chai were also on point.... So we'll definitely be back!!

This would be one of the best places I've eaten at in the last 3000 kilometres and 6 weeks of travelling. I recommend the brunch menu, don't be scared of the Lumi Large breakfast, I've had bigger,but not better. The service was quick and friendly. Thoroughly recommend.

We had a birthday hosted here and it was terrific! Food came out within 10 minutes of ordering, drinks were delicious & large sizing! All generous portions, quick to clear tables once finished! We couldn’t fault them at all. Thanks for having us, definitely will be back!

Great spot for coffee and catch-up. Lovely, light and airy space, beautifully set up. Food and drinks are well executed. Friendly staff, however more welcoming and instructions needed for first timers.
