Good coffee, puppuchino for the 4-legged ones amongst us, good vegetarian twist on bacon and egg roll - with haloumi instead. Their shoestring hot chips are delish!

One of the fanciest venues around. Very cool, non pretentious, with quality simple food a la cart and ever changing menus from fresh local produce. Good wine selection and just everything you need to make it a memorable night out. Be prepared to leave some big bank notes behind (at least for south coast standards :)

Trendy, but less formal dining compared to Para, with high quality seafood menu with twist on traditional Japanese cuisine and a gin inspired cocktails. Recommend the poke bowls and fish burger. Magnificent selection of G&T's cocktails. Come for just a drink and stay the night kind of vibes. Get onto their insta and FB for special offers!

Fantastic coffee, nice food & sweets, tasty juices & smoothies and just a quick walk down the road! Cold filtered water at your disposal (still or sparkling, even if you just want to refill your water bottle). If you are into decaf morning goodness they serve one of the best turmeric lattes around.

Although all food looks very good, unfortunately, given the amount of tries I gave them and the high pricing, I can not recommend as I always faced disappointment . The cakes are delicious, but bit too dear compare to other options (think Sareven Bakehouse).

AMAZING burgers, all are phenomenal. The Cheeseburger is a bit too large with its double thick patty for our liking, but taste is there. Fried chicken burger has our choice or even the pulled pork (even though once was on the drier side, still very tasty!). Be hungry for this treat! Also look them on insta or FB for specials.

Definitely presents those hipster surfy vibes here, great coffee as well as chai latte, if you early enough you can score a fresh bread of the highest standards, still warm, crispy and moist. Tastes what an actual bread should taste like, but comes with a $12 price tag for a small round loaf. Well worth it on your holiday I think! Good, solid trendy breakfasts.

Amazing spot for a cold one! Looking for a $5 schooner (Young Henrys on tap) with unparalleled views? Perhaps an authentic Thai meal? Become a member for $10 and get discounts on drinks and food. You will be happy with this one, feels a bit like going back in time. Great for families too. Make sure you bring a jacket no matter how hot the day is - as soon as sun falls behind the escarpment you will feel an instant chill. Trust me on this one!!!

Is it raining? You might want to head over to the discovery centre. It is a HUGE kids playground with all sorts of activities. Our daughter loves to play in the outdoor creek! There is a good coffee shop attached to it, so you can easily stay for lunch. The entire area is indoors with fenced outdoors.

This one is a bit of a drive, however if you haven't been to Stanwell, it is well worth the extra time to get there. Go and have a look at the artsy nests in the forest (entry from the carpark up the hill) and follow the road to walk all the way to the other side of the beach.
