Why it's worth checking out
Hey Day sits on Bermagui Crescent at Buddina, in the Kawana area of the Sunshine Coast near the beach. A much-loved cafe, it's earned a near-flawless reputation — the kind of welcoming, quality spot that locals rate highly, known for its good coffee, quality food and relaxed, friendly atmosphere.
The appeal is that combination of genuinely good cafe fare, quality coffee and a warm, characterful setting in a convenient Buddina location near the coast, ideal for a morning coffee, a leisurely brunch or a casual catch-up. Earning a near-perfect rating speaks to a place getting both the food and the experience just right, building a devoted local following.
A 4.9 rating from more than 170 reviews is an excellent result and a strong endorsement. Menus, opening hours and offerings change with the seasons, and a popular cafe gets busy on weekend mornings, so it's worth checking current details before a special trip — though for a great coffee and a quality bite, it's often just a matter of dropping in and seeing why it's so well loved at Buddina.
