Stopped at The Forest Blend Café before heading to the Big Pineapple and had a truly impressive breakfast! I would definitely return for their food if I visit the Sunshine Coast again. I ordered their Eggs Benedict with mushrooms as I was craving a healthy breakfast. The mushrooms were freshly cooked and exactly what I wanted. The eggs were beautifully poached. The serving size was good value for the price. The food was ready quickly, and the staff were friendly and helpful. Thank you for making my day!

You Legends at The Forest Blend Cafe deserve a 5 star review for hands down a lovely service, an amazing breakfast, I can't forget how delicious coffee is. I promise I don't have an addiction to coffee. you won't regret making this a place to stop by in the morning for a great hearty breakfast with many other great options on the menu. With that, they offer a ninja course a gym and more in the same building. It really feels hidden from the rest unless you stepped in the door, I just can't pin one bad vibe all in all. If you're thinking of your next place of a real relaxing environment and fulfilling your stomachs needs definitely stop in there. Appreciate your kind service. Keep it up!

The Forest Blend is a cute cafe, and the service was lovely even with my beacon being forgotten but quickly rectified. The coffee was unfortunately burnt and food a little on the bland side but still filling and ok to fill our tummies. They use BBQ sauce as a garnish, which isn't for me, but I understand others like it

Amazing little Cafe tucked away, food was so freaking amazing. Have been twice now, first time there were 6 of us and second time there were just the two of us but despite how many orders food came out very quick and was so delicious. Staff are absolutely wonderful and very friendly and accommodating with everything. Will highly recommend the cafe to anyone, it is also located alongside an indoor ninja training course that kids and adults can have a go at

Had breakfast at the Forest Blend Cafe, overall we did enjoy our meals however we found the food just ok, if i had to choose i could think of other cafes that could do better. Prices are fair and at the rate of other cafes. The atmosphere is ok, with a ninja class next door and combines with the business the cafe gets. Would i go back, no, but its not horrible.

You don’t need to be a member of the gym to enjoy this little gem tucked away in Forest Glen. Great food, friendly staff and awesome coffee. Shout out to Tegan and Cass who know my coffee order better than me. And if you are looking for a gym, head upstairs where you’ll meet another awesome group of people who’ll be happy to help you on your fitness journey.

Don’t judge the cafe by its cover! It does share its space with a gym upstairs, and a ninja center next door, but don’t let that stop you from trying them out, because they definitely hold their own when it comes to the quality of their food! Our food was soo good!! One of the best smashed avos I’ve had (and I’ve had a lot, being a food blogger!). I loved that it had feta and dukka - that really MADE it!! Everything was cooked great! I had a fresh pressed citrus juice which was lovely! Chocolate chai was too strong for us (powder wise), but each to their own! Sitting outside is recommended, the air is fresh and the atmosphere is lovely :) Staff were all lovely. Housemade muffins daily! Thanks for having us!
