Mudjira Village Eatery — Restaurant in Gold Coast City

On our morning drive back to Brisbane, my husband Hugh gave me the mission: find somewhere nearby for a proper breakfast and a coffee that didn’t taste like regret. After a quick search, Mudjira Village Eatery kept popping up like it was waving at me—five stars, close by, decent pics. “Eatery?” I thought. Sounds like something inside a shopping centre food court. But we were hungry and hopeful, so we pulled in.

What a brilliant little surprise!

The indoor area is perfectly pleasant, but the real magic is in the outdoor seating—lush, green, and full of friendly locals who clearly already know what a gem this place is. I ordered a toastie and cheekily added hash browns. At first, I raised an eyebrow at the price, but when they arrived—crispy, golden, house-made hash brown perfection—I could’ve kissed the chef. Honestly, worth every cent.

The menu is easy to find on the website, another bonus as so often eateries make it hard to see in advance what they offer. The place was busy but luckily there are plenty of seating options available inside as well as outside in the centre courtyard. Sitting out there made you feel part of the hustle and bustle but as bystanders. Very pleasant. The service was quick and very friendly. I was also impressed with the eye for detail in the cleaning. With such a busy vibe they still managed to maintain...

Unfortunately had very bad experience. Ordered coffee on order machine, machine get frozen and didn’t give me order ticket but the money been paid and I show transaction to the staff… easy situation very easy to manage but…. I been told I need to pay again if I want coffee… really?…. Ok I paid again and I been told I will receive refund when machine will be fixed. No apology, no being nice and NO REFUND

In your reply you are saying you did not asks me to pay for a second time. Yes your staff did and I have a confirmation of me paying twice. Yes they paid me cash back for the first transaction after I come back later and insist that but that wasn’t done nice. I haven’t had refund to my bank and I can confirm that. That mean you have my 2 payments. I just came for the coffee. Not for...
