About 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.

Why Guests Choose Cinnamon Edge

Discover what makes Cinnamon Edge a standout Mount Gravatt destination for genuine Sri Lankan flavours and gatherings

  • 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!

  • Generous Portions of Traditional Kottu

    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.

  • 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.

  • Attentive Care and Personalized Kitchen Requests

    The team goes above and beyond standard hospitality, readily accommodating custom culinary requests and off-menu items.

    Thanks a lot to the chef to prepare a special Sri Lankan Chicken curry last week on our request (which isn't in their menu) and the staff who all were very friendly.

    Top spot to celebrate an occasion with the BYO option as well. They can accommodate 50 pax easily

  • 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'!!

Beyond the menu

Thoughtful culinary gestures and personalized hospitality that go beyond the menu

  • Personalized Off-Menu Care

    When a customer requested a specialized off-menu crab curry for a 96-year-old family member in palliative care, owner Davina personally prepared it the next morning despite calling late on Sunday night.

  • Custom Made-to-Order Pani Appe

    Guests craving nostalgic sweets like traditional pani appe (jaggery hoppers) can have them specially made to order even though they are not listed on the standard menu.

  • Tailored Curry Preparations

    The kitchen accommodates bespoke recipe requests, including crafting a customized Sri Lankan chicken curry variant upon diner request to pair with hot hoppers.

  • Attentive Hospitality & BYO Flexibility

    Owners and staff actively check in on diners throughout busy weekend seatings, accommodating large groups of up to 50 guests alongside flexible BYO dining options.

Before you head over

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.
