These guys are amazing. They made a special burger for us, their sunshine smoothie tasted great and most importantly before me there was a homeless person and they gave her free coffee. Every community need such great business owners. Proud of these guys . Please support these guys.

This was a great cafe for our last day in the Sunshine Coast. I did forget to take a photo of my wrap and coffee but both were amazing!! The food was so delicious and beautifully presented with friendly and welcoming service from the staff who even though was working alone made sure we had a great experience at The Yard. I will definitely be coming back on my next visit to the Sunshine Coast.

Excellent friendly service and lovely food. Food so good nothing was left on our plates. Coffee is excellent. If you want a caramel latte, ask for the 'special syrup'. If we're back in Maroochydore, we'll be back here for breakfast. Highly recommend.

Awesome coffee. Long black and Soy Flat White both superb. Staff very polite and accommodating. Food super yummy too. Plenty of outdoor seating. All abilities access. Right on the road, can be a bit noisy when the traffic gets busy. Only thing missing was some relaxing tunes playing in the background

Amazing coffee, and my breakfast burger was awesome. Their toasted chicken Tikka sandwich is to die for. It's definitely my favourite. Always quiet and peaceful.
