The coffee, fresh bread, pastries and cabinet food are all fabulous! I particularly love their sough dough bread, and buy a loaf to take-away every time I visit. Closed on Sundays.

Everything Else

"Our Place" is a new container complex with street style food, and craft/design pop-ups stores. Music and events are often hosted there. My good friends have a container there where they sell their home-made ice-cream. It is called 'East Coast Ice-Cream' and they do some awesome flavour combinations with all natural locally sourced ingredients.

McLaren Falls Park conatins rockpools, a couple of wateralls, a lake, cafe, farm animals, BBQ tables and park-like grounds.

Take a walk up (approx 45-50 mins to the top); or around (approx. 45 minute loop) the Mount. Great views from the top, but also lovely scenery if you just want to go around. It can get very busy over the peak season.

Sightseeing

Just a 5 - 10 minute walk to the end of Leisure Island. When the surf is big the blow-holes can be impressive. When I was young there was a waterslide complex on the island (disbanded many years ago) - hence it still being referred to locally as Leisure Island.
