Why it's worth checking out
One Block Back sits on Nothling Street at Moffat Beach, a relaxed beachside pocket near Caloundra on the southern Sunshine Coast. A much-loved cafe, it's become a genuine local favourite — the kind of welcoming, quality spot, just a block back from the beach, that draws a steady stream of regulars for good coffee and food in a relaxed setting.
The appeal is that combination of quality cafe fare, good coffee and an easygoing, beachside-suburb feel, ideal for a morning coffee, a leisurely brunch or a casual catch-up after a walk by the sand. Moffat Beach's laid-back charm pairs perfectly with a quality local cafe, and the loyal following speaks to a place getting the fundamentals right.
With a 4.6 rating from more than 900 reviews, it's clearly hitting the mark with locals. Menus, opening hours and offerings change with the seasons, and a popular beachside cafe gets busy on weekend mornings, so it's worth checking current details before a special trip — though for a coffee and a casual bite, it's often just a matter of dropping in and finding a spot among the regulars at Moffat Beach.
