At The Nines Emporium, we offer everything from epic pancake stacks to specialty coffee blends, making us a foodie paradise on the Sunshine Coast. If you're after a hearty breakfast, Instagram-worthy drinks, or just a damn good coffee, our Maroochydore cafe delivers.

Our culture isn't just about a quick caffeine fix. It's about serving flavour-packed food with generous portions, pouring quality coffee from local roasters, and creating a space where you actually want to hang out. We blend that classic Aussie comfort food vibe with fun twists that keep things interesting.

About Your Guide

I'm Janice Kuz, owner of The Nines Emporium. For almost 10 years, we've been shaking up the local scene with our Melbourne-inspired approach to breakfast and brunch. With over 20 years in hospitality, my passion is to create a cafe that's truly special, and I'm here to give you an inside look at what makes The Nines tick.

What Makes The Nines Emporium Special

At The Nines, it's all about the details that create an unforgettable experience. From the first sip of coffee to the last bite of your epic brekkie, we've crafted every element with care. It’s not just a meal; it’s the whole damn vibe, ya know?

Epic Feeds for Breakfast & Brunch

Let's be real, the food is the main event. Our menu goes off, offering everything from breakfast classics to modern twists that surprise and delight. We dish out generous portions of breakfast and brunch favourites all day long, because breakfast shouldn't be boring.

Take our Eggs Benedict, for instance. We call it the Benny Trilogy, because why settle for one when you can have this classic in three damn good ways? Our secret is a fresh, zesty hollandaise made in-house daily, perfectly poached eggs, and bacon that's cooked until it's perfectly crisp. It’s a modern classic that hits all the right notes.

Savour the incredible flavour of this modern salmon benny, presented beautifully on a black plate with avocado. Great food from cafes in Maroochydore.

It's not just about breakfast, though. We serve lunchtime legends like our vibrant roast pumpkin salad for a fresh, fun, and flavour-packed meal. We also have plenty of vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free options, so no one misses out.

Legendary Sweet Treats

For those with a sweet tooth, our signature Pancake Stacks are legendary. These aren't your average flapjacks; they're a decadent tower loaded with goodies like berry coulis, chocolate fudge, and seasonal berries. It's a sweet brunch favourite that’s pure indulgence and a feast for the eyes.

Damn Good Coffee & Insta-Worthy Drinks

What's an epic feed without a damn good coffee? We proudly pour the local Vintage Black blend by Tim Adams, a local roaster who knows their beans. Our skilled baristas ensure that whether you're after a classic latte or a flat white with oat milk, you're getting a consistently excellent brew.

But we don't just do coffee; we do your new favourite coffee. Our Loaded Shakes are decadent, over-the-top creations that are a treat for your taste buds and your camera roll. We also love to keep things fresh with creative monthly specials, like our past Ube Taro Cold Foam or Iced Matcha Taro, so there's always something new to try.

A Vibe That's More Than Just Four Walls

The atmosphere is what makes a cafe special. We've created a vibrant experience inspired by Melbourne's street cafes, mixed with Maroochydore's effortless style. Our space is cozy, busy, and brimming with personality—a modern, fun space where you instantly feel comfortable.

Our staff are friendly, and it feels like you're chatting with a mate at the counter. We pride ourselves on our "fun-ass workplace," because happy staff means happy customers. It's a relatable and down-to-earth Modern-Aussie vibe where you can unwind without any pretentiousness.

More Than Just a Meal: Unique Perks

We're super proud to be a dog-friendly cafe. Your furry mates are family, so we welcome them with open arms in our outdoor seating area. It's the perfect spot for you and your pup to relax.

We haven't forgotten the little ones either! Our kid-friendly menu keeps even the pickiest eaters happy with classics like Bacon & Eggs (GFO), Mini Pancakes (V), Nuggets & Fries, and Fish & Chips. We also offer convenient takeaway, a coffee loyalty card for our regulars, and private event hire for your next celebration.
