There is a beautiful moment right after we finish our final resting pose (Savasana) under the morning sky at Hollindale Park. We roll up our mats, shake the grass from our towels, and feel completely refreshed and ready to tackle the day. But for many of us in the Yoga by the Beach with Bec community, the practice doesn't end when we step off the grass—it continues over a great cup of coffee.

One of the best parts about practicing in Main Beach is that we are spoiled for choice when it comes to incredible local cafes. Sharing a post-flow coffee is the perfect way to make new friends, support our local businesses, and ease into the morning.

If you are joining us for a class and wondering where to grab your caffeine fix afterward, here is a roundup of our favourite local spots to refuel and reconnect!

1. The Main Beach Pavilion Cafe

The Vibe: Salty, historic, and right on our doorstep. Why We Love It: Located at the Southport Surf Lifesaving Club, the beautifully restored 1930s Main Beach Pavilion is literally steps away from our yoga spot. It is the ultimate casual seaside spot to grab a quick flat white and watch the waves roll in.

2. Hot Shott

The Vibe: Trendy, creative, and buzzing with energy. Why We Love It: Just a short stroll down to Tedder Avenue, Hot Shott is a local favorite for good reason. The team here is incredibly welcoming, the coffee is always top-notch, and if you have worked up an appetite during our sun salutations, their breakfast menu is wildly creative. It’s also a fantastic spot for our gluten-free yogis, as they are highly accommodating!

3. Le Jardin

The Vibe: A leafy, relaxed slice of French elegance. Why We Love It: Tucked away on Tedder Avenue, Le Jardin brings a touch of serenity and European charm to the Gold Coast. With its beautiful garden atmosphere, it is the perfect place to sit in the morning sun, sip a beautifully made Merlo coffee, and take life at a slightly slower pace. (And if you want to treat yourself to a post-yoga French crêpe, we fully support it!)

4. The Winey Cow

The Vibe: Award-winning brunching with a dog-friendly twist. Why We Love It: Located on Woodroffe Avenue, The Winey Cow is a bright, sun-drenched pavilion that serves up a spectacular coffee and an elevated brunch menu. But the absolute best part? It is incredibly dog-friendly! If you brought your furry friend down to the park while you practiced, take them here—they even have a dedicated "doggy menu" including puppuccinos!

5. Thyme Cafe

The Vibe: Sunny, homely, and effortlessly welcoming. Why We Love It: Also located on the Tedder Avenue strip, Thyme Cafe is an absolute gem. With its relaxed outdoor seating, it is a brilliant place to catch the sea breeze while catching up with your fellow yogis. The service feels like you are being welcomed into a friend's home, and their avocado toast with a zesty lime dressing is the ultimate post-workout refuel.
