A Day in Dayboro

Following on with our mission to explore our new home town, we decided to venture north and up to the hills during the Easter long weekend. 

The three of us ended up at Dayboro … rather fitting ‘a day at Dayboro‘.

I have never been here. For those like me who have no idea where it is, it’s on the way to Woodford and about 40 minutes out of north Brisbane. Basically go to Stafford or Everton Park and keep driving to the hills.

I can’t recommend it highly enough for a day trip.

I really loved everything about this town. From the drive through the hills to the great little stores, Dayboro is a very cool place to visit.

I was also impressed at the vintage/retro feel to the town. Right across the road from the cool pub (complete with big fig trees out the front and wooden picnic benches) there is an antique shop and a Bohemian vintage shop. Well worth the look.


Further down the street – heading towards the renown Dayboro bakery – is a vintage clothes store and one of the best little delis I’ve been to in a long time.

I’ll let the photos tell the story.

But before I do, after your little trip through Dayboro take the time to continue to the hills and head towards Mt Mee and drive along the tourist drive – it’s simply stunning.
