Where Big Flavour Hits the Streets: The MooBaaCluck Burger Journey

What began as a humble food truck serving local markets quickly grew into something bigger. Founded by a team passionate about flavour and community, MooBaaCluck hit the streets with one goal: serve up juicy, satisfying burgers that everyone could enjoy — beef, lamb, chicken, veggie or vegan, no one left out.

From the start, it wasn’t just about the food. It was about showing up — at festivals, private parties, busy streets — and bringing people together around a burger that hits the spot. As the menu expanded and the fanbase grew, so did the vision: keep it fresh, keep it fast, keep it real.

From a Local Café to a Thriving Food Experience

Junction Café started as a dream in Tannum Sands, where Melissa Smart first worked as the cafes chef before taking over the café with her husband, Matthew, in 2018. From day one, their goal was simple—create a welcoming, community-focused space where locals could gather over great coffee and fresh, delicious food.

Over the years, Junction Café became more than just a café. With a commitment to quality and inclusivity, Mel and her team introduced a diverse menu catering to all dietary needs, from hearty classics to vegan and gluten-free options. As the café grew, so did the vision.

Rolling Into New Streets and Bigger Crowds

With word spreading fast and bellies coming back for more, the next move was a no-brainer — bringing the full MooBaaCluck experience to bigger stages and more scenic spots. From open-air festivals to garden weddings and private functions, MooBaaCluck blends bold flavours with vibrant vibes, serving up not just burgers, but moments people remember. Wherever the truck parks, it turns heads — and fills plates.

Hitting the Road

To meet the growing demand, MooBaaCluck hit the road in full force — bringing bold, flavour-packed burgers to festivals, markets, private events, and corporate gigs across Victoria. From classic beef and lamb to plant-based favourites, the truck delivers a full menu experience that’s fast, fresh, and unforgettable.

What started as a single food truck has become a mobile flavour hub — serving up good vibes, great food, and street-side memories wherever it rolls. Whether you catch us at a weekend market or book us for your next big event, MooBaaCluck brings the party (and the sauce).

TONDOON GARDENS

Expanding to Tondoon Gardens

With the success of Tannum Sands, the next step was clear—bringing the Junction Café experience to Tondoon Gardens, a stunning location surrounded by nature. This new café offers the same laid-back atmosphere and great food but in a breathtaking garden setting, perfect for relaxed dining, special events, and unforgettable celebrations.

TRUCK

THE JUNC TRUCK

Taking things on the road, The Junc Truck was launched to bring fresh, flavour-packed food to events, private functions, and festivals across Central Queensland. From burgers and toasties to custom event menus, the food truck adds a new layer to the Junc experience—delivering great food wherever the party is.

What started as a small local café has evolved into a multi-location food hub, serving up quality meals, great coffee, and unforgettable experiences—whether at the café, in the gardens, or on the go.

Join us for a meal, book us for an event, or catch us on the road—Junc is here to serve.
