What a lovely place and all the staff were so lovely and polite. The muffin we ordered was served cut for two without being asked. It was huge and plenty for us. The coffees were excellent and as I looked longingly at the lunch fare I have decided to definitely come back. Everything is made fresh on the premises and tastes just like home. Thank you for your wonderful cafe. I’m coming back.

Accredited Google Review A fantastic cafe but… You will never know unless you go. Tucked away behind some shop fronts, you an discover this little gem with a cool surfer board next to a bunch of other shops and cafes. At first glance it looks pretty small but the larger than life tastes is being prepared for your hungry bellies and eager taste buds behind that counter. The coffee is spot on. I think that must of been my best coffee all year with a bean I have never heard of. And the meals hit that yumm spot at the bottom of my heart (where’s there’s always more room for food). I would highly recommend you go check this beautiful little cafe out and have a bite to eat, your taste buds will Thankyou for it! Enjoy !

⭐BEST FOOD IN COOLUM⭐ I’m a local and this is the best food in Coolum! Coffee is great, breakfast foods are nice and their dinner offerings are out of the food park! Middle eastern flavours, Asian fusion, and Indian styled dishes are available for dinner and it’s BYO and suited for sharing. The staff are incredibly friendly and know their food. This is the kind of place where people the likes of Anthony Bourdain would discover and describe as follows. “This is a hidden gem, tucked away from the glitter strip and surf spots, where quality food is the standout and your wallet won’t get a workout and you can share with friends and simply enjoy great good.” You can thank me later! Just go, you won’t be disappointed.
