A food tour of the Sunshine Coast with 🤤: ⁠

🦪 Fresh seafood at in Gibsons. The oysters were delicious on their own, but tasty sauces were available too. Great spot on the docks, excellent service, loved the rustic vibes.⁠

🌮 is the perfect spot for a bite any time of day. They have a great patio overlooking the beach at Davis Bay. The food is good, with friendly service and a nice vibe.⁠

☕️ is the cutest cafe in Davis Bay. The breakfast and lattes were both good. They also have a big assortment of freshly baked pastries. Excellent service and nice spot for a bite to eat, facing the beach.⁠

🍸️ Happy Hour is the best! They have great options on the menu with really good prices. Cocktails, atmosphere and service were fantastic too.⁠

🥚 Eggstremely happy with my breakfast. is a cute brunch cafe that does not disappoint. The food was really delicious, service was friendly, and overall it had a nice vibe. ⁠
