Sunshine Coast Brekky Goals: 5 Dishes You Can’t Miss at The Nines
Why All Day Breakfast is the Real MVP
All day brekky is no longer just a nice-to-have on the Sunshine Coast. It's become the go-to choice for locals and visitors who want the freedom to eat what they love, whenever they love it. Whether you're craving a hearty feed at 7am or a cheeky breakfast burger at 2pm, the flexibility of an all-day breakfast menu means you're never stuck settling for something you don't actually want.
Here's what makes all day brekky so damn good:
Why It Works | The Vibe |
---|---|
Flexibility for every schedule | Shift workers, early risers, and late brunchers all sorted |
Breakfast-for-dinner is legit | Who says eggs and bacon are morning-only? |
No boring restrictions | Your appetite doesn't follow a clock, so why should your menu? |
Crowd-pleasing variety | From stacks to savoury, there's something for everyone |
The idea that breakfast isn't just a rushed meal but something to be savoured is catching on, and it's the core of our philosophy. This shift in dining culture is backed by the numbers, too. With online searches for 'all day breakfast' jumping over 50% in the past five years, it's clear that brunch culture isn't slowing down. In fact, around 77% of diners consider all-day breakfast a major factor when choosing where to eat, and 60% of people are keen to try breakfast-for-dinner options.
At The Nines, we've been championing the all day brekky movement on the Sunshine Coast since day one. I'm Janice Kuz, owner of The Nines Emporium, and with over 20 years in hospitality, I've focused on perfecting this experience. Our kitchen is open 7am to 3pm every day, ready to serve you classics with a twist. We keep things vibrant, welcoming, and unapologetically fun, because we believe breakfast should always be this good.
Our Top 5 Must-Try All Day Brekky Dishes at The Nines
When we built our all day brekky menu, we wanted every dish to do more than just fill you up. We wanted to create moments worth sharing, flavours that stick with you, and plates that make you think, "Yeah, I'm coming back for that." Here are five dishes that capture everything The Nines stands for.
The Big Boi Brekky: A Modern Classic
Let's start with the heavyweight champion of our menu. The Big Boi Brekky is the kind of feed that looks you dead in the eye and says, "Let's do this." You're getting two crispy bacon rashers, two perfectly fried eggs, a juicy cheese kransky, a golden hashbrown, our house-made beans that simmer low and slow with all the good stuff, grilled tomatoes, sautéed mushrooms, and a thick slab of toasted sourdough to tie it all together.
This isn't just breakfast. It's a full-blown commitment to starting your day right, or fixing whatever went wrong the night before. The portions are generous because we believe you deserve to leave satisfied, not still hungry. It's classic, it's comforting, and it's exactly why so many locals keep telling us they love our all day breakfast options.
Corn Fritters (V): Fresh, Flavour-Packed Goodness
For anyone craving something fresh and vibrant, our Corn Fritters hit different. We're talking light, fluffy house-made corn and zucchini fritters, topped with a perfectly poached egg that oozes golden yolk when you cut into it. Add a colourful avocado and tomato salad, a cool minted yoghurt dressing that brings everything together, a sprinkle of crunchy dukkah, and a bed of peppery rocket.
Every bite is a mix of textures and flavours that just works. It's proof that vegetarian food doesn't have to be boring or feel like you're missing out on anything. This dish is one of our healthy brunch favourites for good reason. It's nourishing, it's beautiful, and it tastes as good as it looks on your feed.
The Aussie Burg (GFO): Your Favourite Brekky in a Bun
Who says you can't have breakfast in burger form? The Aussie Burg takes everything you love about a classic all day brekky and stacks it between a toasted milk bun. We start with a juicy beef brisket pattie, layer on melty cheese, a slice of sweet beetroot (because we're proper Aussie like that), a fried egg with that perfect runny yolk, grilled pineapple for a tangy kick, crisp lettuce, and our house-made tomato relish that brings it all home. Served with a side of shoestring fries, this burger is pure comfort with a modern edge.
It's indulgent, it's iconic, and it's available as a gluten-free option (GFO) so everyone can get amongst it. No wonder it's become one of Maroochydore's morning must-haves. This is the kind of dish that makes you rethink what breakfast can be.
Meatball Sub & Fish Tacos: Unexpected Brekky Heroes
Sometimes you want to shake things up. That's where these two come in, proving that all day brekky doesn't have to mean eggs and bacon every time.
Meatball Sub: Italian-Inspired Indulgence
Our Meatball Sub is the kind of dish that makes you close your eyes on the first bite. We make our own beef and pork meatballs, slow-cook them in a rich Napoli sauce until they're tender and flavour-packed, then pile them into a toasted baguette. But we don't stop there. We add creamy whipped fetta, a drizzle of our vibrant house pesto, sweet onion jam, and then torch a generous layer of mozzarella on top until it's melty, golden, and bubbling.
It's Italian-inspired comfort food that works just as well for a hearty brunch as it does for breakfast-for-dinner. The rich flavours, the gooey cheese, the crusty baguette. It's an absolute winner.
Fish Taco: Fresh, Zesty, and Light
If you're after something on the lighter side but still full of flavour, the Fish Tacos are calling your name. You get two battered fish soft tacos with perfectly crispy fish that's flaky on the inside. We dress them with our house-made thousand island dressing, fresh avocado, and a vibrant fennel and grapefruit salad that adds a zesty, refreshing crunch.
It's fresh, it's lively, and it's perfect for those warm Sunshine Coast days when you want a taste of the ocean without feeling weighed down. Feeling extra? Add a side of shoestring fries for just $3.5 and make it a proper feed.

More Than Just Coffee
Let's be real, no all day brekky is complete without the perfect drink to wash it down. We pour local Vintage Black blend by Tim Adams , so every cup of coffee hits different. But we're also known for our game-changer cold foams that'll make you question everything you thought you knew about iced coffee, frappes that are genuinely out of this world, and classic milkshakes that'll transport you straight back to your childhood. And for those who believe brunch should be a little more relaxed? We've got you covered with alcohol after 10am , because sometimes, a cold beer with your Big Boi Brekky is exactly what you need.
Sweet Treats and Monthly Specials
We're always experimenting with new drinks and flavours, but our kitchen team gets creative too, especially with our monthly specials , which often feature epic pancake stacks. Our regular fluffy pancake stack is loaded with maple bacon bits, grilled banana, candied walnuts, vanilla ice cream, and a generous pour of maple syrup. It's a sweet and salty combo that's damn good. Check out our full range of sweet brunch favourites to see what else we've got up our sleeve.
For the Little Legends
And because we're all about family, we haven't forgotten the little legends. Our kids' menu is designed to please even the pickiest eaters, with options like Bacon & Eggs (one crispy bacon rasher, a happy fried egg, a slice of sourdough, and a hash brown), Mini Pancakes (two fluffy pancakes with vanilla ice cream and maple syrup), Nuggets & Fries (six golden chicken nuggets, fries, and tomato sauce), and Fish & Chips (two pieces of battered fish, fries, and tomato sauce). Whether you're bringing the whole crew or just yourself, we've got something for everyone, making us a top spot for families in Maroochydore.
