inzine cafe

inzine cafe is a casual local breakfast-and-lunch spot on Aerodrome Road, popular with locals heading to or from the beach. Dogs are welcome at its alfresco tables, making it a reliable, easygoing stop for coffee with your dog.

The dog setup. Dogs join you in the outdoor alfresco seating, with a choice of shaded or sunny spots to suit the day. Staff are accommodating and usually bring out a fresh water bowl on request, which helps in the Queensland heat; pack your own as backup.

Good to know. It is known for good coffee, solid breakfasts and a varied, fresh menu with healthy options, in a laid-back setting that works for a quick bite or a relaxed morning. It opens early, roughly 6am to 2pm daily.

Getting there. The address is 103/105 Aerodrome Road. Street parking runs along Aerodrome Road and nearby side streets, though it gets busy, so allow a little time at peak.

Nearby with the dogs. Cotton Tree beach is a short drive or moderate walk for a scenic stroll (check signage for off-leash areas), Maroochydore Rotary Park is a few minutes away, and the Maroochy River walking tracks are close for a longer walk by the water.

When to go. The early opening suits a coffee before a morning beach or river walk; arrive ahead of the breakfast peak for the easiest alfresco table and parking.
