Coffee Note

Coffee Note is a small-batch micro-roastery and brunch room at 1 Parnell Boulevard, Robina, set under the Boheme apartments on the corner of Brooklyn Crescent. It roasts its own beans weekly and runs a short, sharp brunch menu, with dogs welcome at the outdoor and footpath tables in front.

The dog setup

Dogs settle at your side in the undercover outdoor seating and the footpath area beside the cafe, kept on lead. The setup is breezy and simple, and the cafe has a reputation with the local dog-walking crowd for making owners and dogs equally welcome, though bringing your own water bowl is still the safe play. Because the street is quieter than the Robina Town Centre side, it suits dogs that find big shopping-strip cafes overwhelming.

Worth knowing

The coffee is the point: house blends like the balanced Rabbit Hole, the fruit-forward Tropical Orchard and the chocolatey Bossa Nova sit on the shelf as bags, and the menu runs to espresso, filter and a well-regarded matcha. Food covers bagels, breakfast plates, acai bowls and a brunch burger that gets steady praise. Hours are 7am to 2pm Tuesday to Sunday with Monday closed, so it is a morning-and-lunch venue.

Getting there and parking

Parnell Boulevard sits in the residential pocket east of Robina Town Centre, with street parking along the boulevard and Brooklyn Crescent. It can tighten up on weekend mornings, but the side streets absorb the overflow.

Close by with the dogs

The Robina Common Fenced Dog Park is a short drive away for an off-lead run first, and the Frascott Park Fenced Dog Park covers the Varsity Lakes side. If you are cafe-hopping, Kudo Bros and The Lott Cafe are the other Robina sits.

More options are on the Queensland dog friendly cafes guide and the Robina destination page.

Pepsi: grab a bag of Tropical Orchard on the way out, because the roast dates are recent and the shelf runs light by Sunday.
