One Table Cafe - Little Mountain

One Table Cafe is a relaxed neighbourhood coffee spot at 211 Parklands Boulevard in Little Mountain, next door to the suburb's aquatic centre and a short drive inland from Caloundra. It is popular for Tim Adams coffee and cooked breakfasts, and the outdoor seating welcomes dogs, making it an easy stop for locals walking the neighbourhood.

The dog setup

Dogs are welcome at the outdoor tables and footpath seating, on lead and settled beside you while you eat. The covered patio gives some shade on warmer mornings. Water bowls are sometimes put out for dogs, but bring your own collapsible bowl in case none is out on the day. It suits a dog that is happy to lie quietly at a table rather than one that needs space to move around.

Worth knowing

Tim Adams coffee is the house pour, with the blends drawing regulars back, and the kitchen turns out hot breakfasts including eggs benedict, steak sandwiches and bacon and eggs, plus fresh cakes and milkshakes. Staff friendliness comes up consistently. The vibe is quick and low-fuss rather than a long lingering brunch, and there is a kids play area that makes it a family-friendly stop too. Hours run Monday to Friday from 6:30am to 2pm and Saturday 6:30am to noon, closed Sundays.

Getting there and parking

The cafe sits on Parklands Boulevard in Little Mountain, an easy run off the Bruce Highway and about ten minutes from central Caloundra. On-street parking is available out front, though it fills during the weekday breakfast rush, so arriving before the 9am peak is the simplest option.

Close by with the dogs

The fenced enclosure at Little Mountain Common Fenced Dog Park is a few minutes away for an off leash run before or after coffee, with Meridan Downs Off Leash Dog Park also nearby. If you are making a morning of it, the off leash stretch at Currimundi Beach Access Point 255-262 is a short drive east, and Penny G's Coffee at Currimundi is another dog-friendly stop in the same direction.
