Cafe Chill is a roadside cafe that has become somewhat of a travellers hub in Ella.

Swing on by for a coffee in the morning, a beer in the evening and you're sure to have a blast.

With more than 4000 species of plants and renowned for its collection of orchids, the 147 acre Royal Botanic Gardens is sure to have even an anthophile wondering what is what.
