As part of my 100km ANZAC day cycle tour I stopped in at Colin James for a refuel, my coffee was delicious, full of flavor and no sign of bitterness. Staff were friendly although did seem a little stressed due to the busy public holiday. A reliable choice whenever visiting Maleny.

These guys are great! Went here a few weeks ago, and really enjoyed it. You can choose your bean - Tim Adams coffee, or Veneziano. Both are great, and the barista made them with love! Great latte art, friendly service.
They are really trying to achieve a delicious product by using good quality equipment and beans – which I could taste. They are a friendly bunch who seem to enjoy their work.
Pretty cool place... walk in to the sight of a La Marzocco which is always nice... using Veneziano which is also a plus for the cafe. Good double espresso, smooth, bit sweet and friendly service...
Really great food. ok coffee
This place has the best cheese room on the Sunshine Coast but more importantly the coffee here is pretty awesome.
My Flat white had perfect milk temp and nice bit of latte art.
The atmosphere was hectic, but visiting during the school holidays may explain that..

The coffee at Colin James is good - really good, and very, very consistent. What more could you ask for? The ice-cream made from Maleny milk is of course legendary.
Beautiful food... Banana bread was my choice and I enjoyed every last bit, it was sensational and even GF that's takes talent. The coffee was good which was a nice surprise. Worth a second visit!
I know this shop is famous for ice cream. My first time, i had an ice cream. Second time, I had a good coffee and cheese cake. It was long queue, but it's worth it.

Good food and ok coffee. Stopped in to get some gelati and a much needed coffee. The gelati was great, however the espresso was a bit too bitter.

Excellent, good strong cup!
I just love what these guys are doing out in Maleny. Their icecream is awesome and they have this great cheese room with all the yummy stuff. It's like this oasis of gourmet foods in a small country town. The staff are all friendly down to earth country people who do old fashioned type of... Read more
Simply delicious every time!
Haven't had a bad cup there, silky milk and good shots. Great food, friendly staff and of course amazing ice cream!
We had planned a drive north from Brisbane in Queensland to Maleny on the Sunshine Coast (an easy hour and 15 minute drive) and thought we would try and find a good coffee (still not an easy thing to get in Brisbane unless your idea of a good coffee is Gloria Jeans or Starbucks). I did a search on... Read more
Great little cafe. Cheeses, ice cream and food were all great. All the right stuff for making great coffee; mazzer ginder, LaMarzocco machine, veneziano beans. Coffee was good, not great. Also, ordered a piccolo latte and received an 8oz flat white. However, I would definitely come back if I was in... Read more
Took some family from NZ to Maleny for a drive (only my second visit). We parked up and eyed Colin James by chance. There was instant appeal from the outside and upon venturing inside we were not disappointed. We had a range of food, coffee, and gelato and nothing disappointed. Will be sure to... Read more
