Goji Granola Bar & Cafe

Goji Granola Bar & Cafe is a casual all-day breakfast and brunch spot in the Santa Cruz Village shopping strip at Clear Island Waters, known locally for its smoothie bowls, vegan options and a dedicated doggy treat menu.

The dog setup. Dogs are welcome in the outdoor, undercover seating area out front of the shop. Keep your dog leashed and settled beside the table, there's no fenced yard or indoor access. Staff have been known to bring out water and doggy ice cream for well-behaved visitors, but it's worth asking at the counter rather than assuming it's always on offer.

Known for. Granola and acai bowls, the house-made Coco Fluff (a dairy-free soft serve), and Instagram-friendly plating. It draws a steady weekend brunch crowd.

Getting there. It's at Shop 7/60 Santa Cruz Blvd, Clear Island Waters, with free parking in the shopping centre's own lot. Open daily from 6am to 4pm.

Nearby. There are quiet residential streets around Q Super Centre for a short stroll after breakfast, and more dog-friendly cafes a short drive away toward Robina and Mermaid Waters.

When to go: weekday mornings are calmer for outdoor tables, weekends fill up fast so get there early if you want a spot in the shade.
