Muffin Break Kawana Waters

Muffin Break Kawana Shoppingworld is a bakery café inside Kawana Waters Shoppingworld, at 119 Point Cartwright Drive in Buddina. It is a practical stop for a coffee or something to eat while shopping, with seating and service suited to solo visitors, catch-ups and families taking a break from the centre. The café trades from 7.30am to 4pm Monday to Saturday, and from 8.30am to 3pm on Sunday, making it an option for breakfast, a daytime coffee or lunch during shopping hours.

The menu covers Muffin Break’s familiar bakery-café range, including freshly baked muffins, coffee, breakfast items, lunch choices, sweet treats and cold drinks. The local menu lists coffees such as cappuccino, espresso, flat white and latte, alongside croissants, toasties and wraps for breakfast. Lunch options include pies, rolls and pastries, salads, sandwiches, Turkish-style offerings, savoury bakes, soup and wraps. There is also a selection of cakes, slices, tarts, cookies, scones and other baked treats.

Muffins are central to the offering, with the menu including chocolate chip, raspberry white chocolate chip, raspberry, strawberry, triple chocolate, lemon coconut and lemon poppyseed varieties, among others. The site also lists options such as the Classic Vanilla Slice, Choc Brownie Sundae Muffin and Sweet Potato, Fetta and Dukkah Protein Frittata. For a lighter or higher-protein choice, there are protein muffins, protein smoothies and a Protein Granola Pot, as well as gluten-free options. The menu changes with seasonal and occasional products, so checking the current local listing is sensible before visiting.

Muffin Break began in Coolangatta, Queensland, in 1989 and has grown into a national bakery-café group. Its stated approach centres on baking in store each day and grinding coffee to order, with bakers starting early to prepare the morning batch. The brand also describes its signature coffee blend as award-winning, with recognition in both espresso and milk-based categories. At Kawana Waters, that history translates into a straightforward shopping-centre café focused on coffee, baked goods and casual daytime meals. Loyalty members can access the Muffin Mates app, including offers and rewards.
