Mother and son team Matt and Shelley have been operating their busy Beerwah café for three years.
MJ’s Café & Takeaway is located in the thriving Moroney Place industrial estate with convenient access off Roys Road to make it easy for tradies and professionals to grab a quick coffee, breakfast or lunch during their working day.
It’s also a great location for people heading out to the highway or inbound tourists who are coming to spend a day in the Hinterland.
Matt and Shelley are no strangers to hard work, arriving at 4.30am every day to set up and start serving customers at 5am. They are open 5am to 2pm Monday to Friday and 7am to 11am on Saturdays. Shelley said Matt is an excellent barista and some of the favourite menu items are “chicken schnitty burgers, bacon, egg and hashbrown wraps, and loaded fries”.
They have a wide range of hot box food, burgers, sandwiches and wraps, which are great for a quick ‘grab and go’ breakfast or lunch. If you have more time to enjoy a longer break, then they have a nice outdoor seating area, which is pet friendly.
They also have a selection of sweets, including slices and chocolates, plus a range of cold drinks such as slushies, milkshakes, smoothies and soft drinks.
