Plan your visitAbout Cinnamon Edge
Cinnamon Edge serves uncompromised Sri Lankan staples in Mount Gravatt East, turning out crisp hoppers and hefty kottu roti. Daytime runs on flat whites and brunch plates, but dusk shifts entirely to island cooking. Diners pack the cozy room for lacy egg hoppers with runny yolks, paired alongside punchy chicken curry and caramelized seeni sambol. Off-menu requests get a genuine welcome—regulars know to ask Davina for sweet pani appe or rich crab curry. Long tables share devilled chicken, fried rice, and BYO bottles late into the evening.
- Made-to-Order Hoppers: Lacy bowl-shaped hoppers arriving hot with runny eggs, seeni sambol, and spicy curries.
- Accommodating Off-Menu Cooking: The kitchen gladly prepares unlisted homestyle dishes like pani appe and crab curry upon request.
- Day-to-Night Concept: Neighborhood brunch cafe by morning, transforming into a lively Sri Lankan dinner spot with BYO dining.

Crisp, Made-to-Order Hoppers and Savoury Curries
Traditional hoppers are freshly cooked to order with crisp edges and soft centers, paired with fragrant seeni sambol, lunu miris, and rich curries.
The hoppers are delightfully crispy on the edges and soft in the center, just the way they should be!

Wok-tossed kottu delivers authentic Sri Lankan heat, balanced spices, and substantial portions that satisfy substantial appetites.
The kottu was delicious, the portions were generous, and everything tasted fresh and authentic.
Kasun Nanayakkara Nostalgic Taste of Home
Homeland recipes and genuine spice profiles evoke profound nostalgia, transporting diners straight back to Sri Lanka.
I think I speak for everyone at the table when I say that I felt like I was at home again.

The hoppers are amazing! I highly recommend this venue for group bookings. The hoppers along with the 3 sides (chicken curry, luunu miris, and the seeni sambol) taste authentic and the service and general vibe of the place is really nice.

Pani Appe
I asked the lady who served us if they made the 'pani ' appe? - the jaggery hopper... (which is not usually on a menu), and surprisingly , she said ...they did! and we ordered that as well... we had quite a wait for it, but I guess that was cos they were really busy with customers and the orders.. but boy! Wasn't that wait worthwhile!! They were absolutely'delicious'!!
Winnie Wijemanne Devilled Chicken
the devilled chicken is a must try. ( not overloaded with sauce like few others we tried in Brisbane )
Nalin Fernando Milk Tea
That Milk Tea was just perfect too.
Udeshika Suradasa Coffee
GREAT coffee reasonably priced. Can definitely recommend, but just so thankful to have a great coffee around now…

Practical advice on timing, menus, and dining arrangements
Allow Extra Time for Made-to-Order Dishes
Made-to-order specialties like hoppers and custom pani appe can involve a noticeable wait when the kitchen is busy on weekends, so factor in extra time when ordering.
Access the Dinner Menu at Weekend Lunch
The evening dinner menu is also served during lunch from Friday through Sunday, letting you enjoy authentic curries and kottu earlier in the day.
Plan Group Feasts Around BYO and Dog-Friendly Seating
For gatherings or celebrations, take advantage of the BYO dining option, and plan ahead if bringing pets as outdoor seating accommodates dogs.
