🐶 Ralph’s Pawspective
Rev those engines, pups – I’ve discovered a spot where the treats come with the table service! 🐶🦴
Vandy’s Garage in Buderim is one cool pit stop. I was tethered to the table (rude), but the real MVP staff came out with treats – so all was forgiven instantly. There’s outdoor seating with great shade, and I got to eavesdrop on all the brunch gossip while my hooman sipped their coffee like it was fuel for the soul.
I didn’t get to go inside (something about health codes blah blah), but the vibe was chill, and the smells were 10/10. I give it four tail wags and one loud snort of joy.

👤 Human Highlights
Vandy’s Garage is full of vintage charm with an industrial twist – think rustic garage-turned-café with lots of quirky personality. It’s a Buderim favourite thanks to its warm, welcoming staff and consistently great coffee.
Expect a laid-back vibe, an eclectic interior if you’re dining inside, and dog-friendly outdoor seating for your café-loving companion.
There’s often a gentle buzz in the air with locals catching up over brunch.
Service is friendly and casual, but that doesn’t mean rushed – it’s the kind of place where you settle in and soak up the morning.

Pro Tip
Grab an outdoor table if you’re bringing your pup – you might just score a few surprise treats for them too!
