10 Hastings Street Cafe

The Verdict

Walk through the door of this bustling cafe on Hastings Street and you’ll be greeted with warm smiles, the hum of relaxing tunes and the splendid sight of some incredible food as it is whisked to a table nearby. Seriously though, we challenge you to read through their dishes and not find something you want to try.

Serving breakfast, lunch and dinner (most days), 10 Hastings Street’s menu is as thick as it is tasty, but it’s their tapas offering that’s really knocking our pluggers off. Two plates you’d be a fool to go past are the Patatas Bravas—crispy hand-cut potatoes topped with mojo-rojo salsa and garlic aioli—and the mouth-watering Croquetas filled with chevre, caramalised onion, truffle oil, crispy sage and a romesco sauce. If you’ve just popped in for a drink, depending on the time, either the smoothie list or a jug of sangria (red or white) are sure-fire winners. Sit inside and get some biz done with their free wifi or find a posi outside and soak up those sweet, summer-like Noosa vibes—even if you’re not on holidays, it’ll feel like it.
