Why Maroochydore's Coffee and Bar Scene Starts at The Nines

Spots that offer coffee and bar experiences in Maroochydore have never looked this good. If you're hunting for a spot that does both killer coffee and a boozy brunch vibe, you've found it. The Nines Emporium is where your day starts with a damn good flat white and seamlessly transitions into beers after 10 am, surrounded by vibrant feeds and friendly faces.

Let's be real: not all coffee spots are created equal, and not every cafe nails the transition from morning brew to afternoon beer. That's where The Nines comes in. We've spent almost 10 years perfecting the balance between classic comfort food and bold, creative twists. Think smashed avo that's anything but boring, pancake stacks that change monthly based on what you're craving, and a coffee lineup that keeps locals coming back daily. Plus, you can grab a cold one with your brunch here and no one bats an eye.

I'm Janice Kuz, proud owner of The Nines Emporium. I've been in the coffee and bar Maroochydore scene for over 20 years, and my mission is simple: to create a spot that's bigger, bolder, and way more fun than your average cafe.

From Morning Brews to Afternoon Vibes: The Nines Emporium Edition

Sunshine Coast mornings just hit different, and they demand damn good coffee paired with food that actually excites you. At The Nines Emporium, we've never been about just serving coffee and calling it a day. Since 2015, we've been building a spot where your morning flat white flows naturally into a leisurely afternoon with a cold beer (yep, we do boozy brunch after 10 am).

Our philosophy? We don't do boring. We've taken inspiration from the buzzing laneway cafes of Melbourne , mixed it with that laid-back Maroochydore energy, and created something uniquely ours. Every dish is crafted to be a little work of art, something that fills your belly and your camera roll. The vibrant colours of our roast pumpkin salad, the perfectly golden stack of pancakes, the steam rising from a fresh-poured oat latte, these are the moments we live for.

From 7 am to 3 pm daily, we're here to make your day better. We've watched the Sunshine Coast accept cafes as genuine community hubs , and that's what we've built: a space that feels like an extension of your lounge room, just with seriously better food. It's about the whole vibe, the friendly faces, the alfresco seating, and the welcoming atmosphere where your furry mate is just as welcome as you are. Every detail, from our "dressed to the nines" presentation to the laughter that fills the space, is designed to make you want to come back.

What Makes The Nines the Ultimate Coffee and Bar Experience in Maroochydore

So what's our secret sauce? It's the whole vibe: a mix of killer coffee, epic feeds, and an atmosphere that just feels right. We built a place where everyone belongs, whether you're flying solo with a laptop, catching up with your crew, or bringing the family, furry mates included.

We've poured our hearts into making The Nines somewhere you want to hang out. It's that perfect blend of laid-back coastal attitude with a touch of urban cool. Since 2015, we've been all about good intentions, great food, and solid value . This philosophy guides everything we do, and we believe we've helped raise the bar for what a coffee and bar Maroochydore spot can be. We're not trying to be everything to everyone, just your new favourite place to start the day or unwind with a cold one after 10 am.

Damn Good Coffee: The Heart of The Nines

Let's be real: the day doesn't start until that first sip of coffee hits. At The Nines, we take that sip very seriously. Our coffee is damn good, a whole mood even. We proudly pour the local Vintage Black blend by Tim Adams , chosen for its incredible depth and smooth finish. My personal go-to is an oat latte , but with a full range of milks, we'll make your coffee exactly how you like it.

But we don't just stick to the classics. We're always experimenting, especially with our monthly drink specials . We watch the trends and listen to your cravings to create things like our Iced Taro Latte with a lush ube foam. These aren't just drinks; they're little works of art.

Beyond coffee, our menu is packed with thick milkshakes , vibrant fresh juices , and a range of frappes perfect for warmer days. Whether it's a flat white or something unique, we've got a drink to make your day.

Epic Feeds That Fill Your Belly (and Your Camera Roll)

Our mantra is "We don't do boring," and our menu proves it. We serve brunch classics with a modern twist, designed to fill your belly and your camera roll.

A good Eggs Benedict is the king of breakfast, so we created the "Benny Trilogy." Choose from classic crispy Bacon , light and fresh Smoked Salmon , or earthy Mushroom (V) with pesto hollandaise. All served with poached eggs, spinach, avocado, and a hash brown on sourdough.

Our Pancake & Specials Philosophy keeps things fresh. We create monthly specials based on trends and cravings, but our regular fluffy pancake stack is a staple for a reason: it's loaded with maple bacon bits, grilled banana, candied walnuts, vanilla ice cream, and maple syrup.

Beyond that, we've got other epic feeds like our Aussie Burg with a beef brisket pattie and grilled pineapple, fresh Corn Fritters (V) , and the vibrant Pumpkin Salad . We offer generous portions and have plenty of vegetarian (V) and gluten-free optional (GFO) choices.

We also have a dedicated kids menu with favourites like Bacon & Eggs (GFO) , Mini Pancakes (V) , Nuggets & Fries , and Fish & Chips , so the whole family is sorted.

The Vibe: Why The Nines is Maroochydore's Best Coffee and Bar Spot

"Dressed to the nines" is about more than our food; it's our whole personality. We've mixed Melbourne's vibrant cafe energy with Maroochydore's laid-back style to create a space that's cozy, busy, and undeniably fun.

Our alfresco seating is perfect for soaking up the Sunshine Coast weather, and yes, we're totally dog-friendly ! Your furry mates are always welcome.

What really sets us apart in the coffee and bar Maroochydore scene is our "boozy brunch." After 10 am, you can grab a cold beer with your bacon and eggs. It's a cheeky twist on brunch that suits the relaxed local lifestyle, and we're even adding cocktails soon.

I opened The Nines almost 10 years ago to build a destination that was bigger, bolder, and more fun. Our commitment to personality, good intentions, great food, and solid value is what we believe helped raise the bar for the local scene.
