The coffee and breakfast scene

These are our favourite coffee and breaky spots
When you feel like a good coffee with an awesome view this is the place. If you get a window seat your'e going to get Wharf Street at its best. You can watch the pelicans and the fish swim past. The breakfast menu is not to shabby either. The best plan is to book early to get a window seat, its worth it. PS Try to pick good weather, as with most water views they excel in those conditions.

Nambucca Boat Shed And Cafe is another great spot to grab a coffee or brunch. Its not as intimate as Wharf Street Cafe but has more water view seating ,being semi protected from the wind in winter. Its a great pick on a fine calm day, especially in winter. Wharf Street is much cosier in winter. The board walk starts just to the left of the cafe, so you can take your coffee walk 100 metres and sit along the river in parkland settings. Get in early at peak season or it can be a long wait

Right next to the Wall Tavern is the The V Wall Cafe. It is more of a takeaway shop than a cafe, but handy if your walking the break wall and want a coffee to go. Decent coffee and great bacon and egg rolls etc.

This Cafe situated hear the headlands of Valla Beach is a popular place for locals.The coffee is good and they have great burgers / Breakfast menu. Get there early as it can be hard to get a seat. when we go there its down to the beach there's usually a empty park setting over looking the ocean.

Main Beach at times is a great surfing spot especially in a southerly swell and southwest wind. Right handers wrap around short headland not a long ride but it can barrell on the right tide

Bello as the locals call it is well worth the drive. The trip takes 31 min from our home, the town is full of places to eat and shop . at the right time of the month there are markets to visit Also there's lots of freshwater swimming holes to cool off on a hot summers day.
