Frankie's Woombye, Woombye Review

Overview

The challenge of small rural towns like Woombye is to put themselves on the map for more than one reason — a large, yellow, spiny one in this case. Sizeable roadside berries aside (yes, pineapples are berries), there's a cafe that's fighting the good fight to put wider Woombye on the map. And in 2024, they hit a huge milestone.

Frankie's Woombye was the 2024 winner of Toby's Estate Local Legends competition, making it officially one of the most popular cafes in all of Queensland. It's quite the accomplishment for owner Rebecca Galler, who purchased the cafe in 2019 and named it after her daughter, intending to give the Sunshine Coast hinterland a cafe it could be proud of.

So, what makes this small-town gem shine? It could be the full-bodied coffee, served from the airy front counter alongside elevated all-day brunch and lunch options like eggs benedict, rosti stacks and brisket reuben burgers. After a coffee or two, there's also the chance to order a round of craft beers or cocktails after 10am. But Galler's favourites are the house-made Biscoff tarts or white chocolate and matcha tarts.

All the food on the menu is made with ingredients sourced from Woombye and its surroundings, so beyond the bloody delicious flavours, every plate is loaded with local charm and good karma.
