Hunting for Maroochydore's Most Epic Lunch?

The best lunch Maroochydore has to offer is one that'll shake up your midday routine and fill both your belly and your camera roll. Gone are the days of settling for boring sandwiches or overpriced salads that leave you hungry an hour later. The local lunch scene has seriously levelled up, and we're here for it.

We're talking about damn good Bennys that'll make you dream about perfectly poached eggs, and salads that'll convert even the biggest sceptics. It's all about flavour-packed feeds that actually fill you up, paired with seriously good coffee that doesn't taste like it came from a sad office machine.

I'm Janice Kuz, owner of The Nines Emporium, and I've spent over 20 years in hospitality creating vibrant lunch experiences that define what an epic feed should be. When I opened The Nines almost 10 years ago, I wanted to bring something bigger, bolder, and way more fun to the local scene—and that vision has helped shape what makes lunch special around here.

What Makes the Best Lunch Maroochydore Has to Offer?

When we talk about the best lunch Maroochydore has cooking, we're not just looking for a quick bite. Nah, we're talking about that sweet spot where flavour, vibe, and value all come together to create an epic feed that leaves you feeling pumped and ready to take on the rest of your day. It's about more than just food; it's about the whole damn experience. We've been at this since 2015, constantly pushing the envelope to make sure every visit is a memorable one.

Flavour-Packed Feeds That Hit Different

First up, let's chat about the grub, because that's the main event, right? At The Nines Emporium, we're all about those damn good, flavour-packed feeds that hit different. We're talking Modern Aussie classics with our own special twist, crafted to fill your belly and make your taste buds sing. Our kitchen is open every day from 7 am, serving up deliciousness until 2:30 pm, so you've got plenty of time to get your fix.

Take our famous Benny Trilogy, for example. We believe a good Eggs Benedict involves perfectly poached eggs, creamy hollandaise that's just right, and quality ingredients that make every bite a celebration. Whether you're a fan of crispy bacon, tender smoked salmon, or our roasted garlic thyme mushrooms, we've got a Benny for you. It's a dish that's designed to be enjoyed exactly how you like it.

Beyond the Classics: Salads and Tacos That Excite

We know some of you out there might be side-eyeing salads, thinking they're just a pile of leaves. Well, we're here to tell you that salads can be exciting, fo sho! Our Pumpkin Salad, for instance, is a game-changer. Imagine roast pumpkin and roast beetroots, pearl couscous, creamy fetta, and a dill dressing that brings it all together. It's fresh, fun, and full of flavour - definitely not your average sad desk lunch.

And if you're feeling a bit adventurous, our Fish Tacos are an absolute must-try. Packed with fresh ingredients and bursting with flavour, they're the perfect choice for those looking for something a little different. We pride ourselves on generous portions because we know a truly epic feed is one that leaves you feeling satisfied, not searching for snacks an hour later. That's why we say our food just hits different - it's all about good intentions and great tucker.

A Vibe That's Bigger, Bolder, and More Fun
