Ensconced the leafy confines of East Brisbane’s Cottage Garden Nursery is The Smug Fig. The cafe is fronted by a bold blue shipping container serving Two Seasons coffee, brightly framed by potted marigolds welcoming passers-by. Inside, the cafe’s walls are illustrated with wall art by Yannick Blattner – amongst the leaves and hummingbirds you’ll be sure to spot a smug fig or two – and mismatched vintage furniture is contrasted by the lush green leaves of nursery plants and terrariums dotted around the space.
