About Sonder

Brisbane pastry obsessives treat this Sunnybank room as their benchmark for Japanese sweets with restrained sugar. The signature purin cheesecake fuses wobbly custard pudding with rich baked cake beneath a crackling crème brûlée crust. Regulars line up for intensely bitter matcha drinks and nutty warabi mochi finished with kuromitsu. Night crowds pack the counters for late-running parfait service and hojicha cakes, lingering over chilled green tea floats.

  • Purin Cheesecake: Layered hybrid dessert balancing silky custard pudding, baked cake base, and a crisp caramel top.
  • Authentic Matcha & Tea: Uncompromisingly earthy green teas, salted cream lattes, and roasted hojicha desserts.
  • Late Dessert Service: Plated parfaits and cakes served well into the evening for post-dinner crowds.

Why Sonder Stands Out

Why dessert lovers choose Sonder for authentic Japanese patisserie and specialty teas

  • Signature Purin Cheesecake Fusion

    The signature Purin Cheesecake blends Japanese custard pudding and cheesecake into a singular textured dessert that retains ideal firmness without becoming heavy.

    It is the perfect mix between Japanese Pudding, Crème Brûlée and Cheesecake. The text is perfect, I need to have it again and again.

  • Nuanced, Restrained Sweetness

    Pastries and layered sponge cakes emphasize light, balanced sweetness, allowing deep flavors like hojicha to shine without being cloying.

    My partner rarely has anything more than a bite of a dessert but they have nailed the "not too sweet" balance

  • Uncompromised Matcha Bitterness

    Beverages and warabi mochi preserve the natural, earthy bitterness of authentic matcha rather than masking it behind sugary syrups.

    Everything matcha is great here, bitter as it should be. So happy knowing that I could get a delicious warabi mochi in Brisbane.

  • Layered Specialty Tea Drinks

    Specialty cold drinks pair robust, concentrated tea bases with house-crafted toppings like salted cream and soy pudding for distinct drink profiles.

    the bitter smooth matcha, the milk, and the salted cream was dancing on my mouth.

  • Destination Spot for Visitors

    Visitors and out-of-town guests are treated to rare, authentic Japanese flavors and beautifully crafted parfaits worth traveling for.

    We take so many visitors there and it's always worth the half-hour round trip from home! The parfaits are what first drew us in - not many places use such authentic Japanese flavours and ingredients.

  • Poised and Welcoming Hospitality

    Consistently thoughtful hospitality and composed service create a welcoming environment even during peak dessert rushes.

    Even when it’s super busy, they’re always so friendly, calm, and on point with service.

Customer-favorite patisserie items and signature Japanese desserts

  • Purin Cheesecake

    The Purin Cheesecake was definitely the highlight—it’s like getting two desserts in one with the cheesecake and ice cream. Everything tasted fresh, smooth, and not too sweet.

  • Warabi Mochi

    the warabi mochi is such a beautifully delicate dessert - chewy, sticky and sweet. I particularly enjoyed both the nuttiness of the soybean/kuromitsu flavour!

  • Parfait

    The parfaits are what first drew us in - not many places use such authentic Japanese flavours and ingredients.

  • Basque Cheesecake

    as it turned out to be the best I'd ever had, I can confidently say that even if they've sold out of the most popular items you won't leave disappointed

Other favorites

Specialty layered cakes and artisan tea beverages

  • Sticky Date Pudding

    The sticky date pudding was the best, it did not dissapoint. I never had dessert this moist, soft, and so incredibly tasty. The ice cream and the butterscotch compliments so well.

    Andrea Vicencio

  • Iced Salted Cream Matcha

    I’ve tried nearly every drink on the menu, and nothing beats the Iced Salted Cream Matcha (highly recommend!).

    Ahmed Ahmed

  • Iced Kuromitsu Matcha with Soy Pudding

    Iced Kuromitsu Matcha with Soy Pudding was next level. Hands down the best matcha I’ve ever had.

    Nikita Anindhya

  • Hojicha Velvet

    eating the hojicha velvet was the first time I'd seen her genuinely enjoy a cake!

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the signature desserts to order?

The Purin Cheesecake—a distinct hybrid between Japanese custard pudding, crème brûlée, and cheesecake—is a standout customer favourite. Other popular highlights include the matcha drinks, sticky date pudding, warabi mochi, and seasonal parfaits.

When is the cafe open?

Yes, the cafe features an afternoon and evening schedule rather than morning hours. It is closed on Mondays and open Tuesday through Sunday from 1:00 PM to 9:00 PM.

What are the parking options?

On-site parking is limited, with roughly 12 spaces shared among neighbouring businesses that can fill up quickly. However, free and paid street parking as well as paid parking lots are available nearby.

Should you expect queues or sold-out items during peak hours?

Yes, Sonder can get quite busy during peak periods like weekend afternoons and evenings, resulting in queues, limited seating, and popular display cakes selling out. However, menu items like parfaits and select desserts can often still be ordered even if the display case is low.
