Coastal Visions Cafe & Surf Art Gallery
If you need somewhere to zen out when you first get out of bed, we recommend you visit the Coastal Visions Cafe & Surf Art Gallery. Surrounded by the incredible photography and artwork of local artists, you can sit back and enjoy a peaceful cup of coffee while taking in the views of the captured beaches. Look at beautiful photos of the rolling waves, and then order something to eat off the menu or out of their cabinet.
Treats include fresh croissants and toasted sandwiches, or if you’re after something a little more filling, try the bacon and egg brekky roll that is simply divine. For a delicious sweet breakfast, order their banana bread that comes toasted with mascarpone and maple syrup. This is the best place to tempt you to roll out of bed this morning, so pop down anytime after 7:30am, 7 days a week, to meet the lovely owners and enjoy one of the Tweed Coast’s best hidden gems.
