Noosa Chocolate Factory plans to open a boutique shop on Hastings Street in October 2026, with vegan options among its chocolate drinks. The company's announcement places the new café and retail shop at Village on Hastings, 18 Hastings Street, Noosa Heads. Opening announcement
For plant-based visitors, it is one to keep on the radar. The business describes hot and iced chocolate drinks, retail chocolate and seating for a small number of guests. An exact opening day and trading hours had not been announced on the location page when we checked on 24 September.
This is a mixed-menu chocolate business, so choosing the right product matters. Its dietary information identifies a vegan milk chocolate range and explains that some dark chocolate products contain animal-derived ingredients. Dark chocolate alone is not a reliable shortcut when selecting from this particular range. Dietary information
The company also says products are made on shared equipment and it cannot guarantee the absence of allergen traces. Ask staff about the exact item and preparation if you have dietary requirements.
For now, consider this an opening preview. Check the official location page before making a special trip; we will need a confirmed date before adding a dated opening to the calendar.
