Great Boutique in Byron Bay. Beautiful eclectic/ bohemian clothes and homeware. I could pretty much have bought the whole shop!!!! Staff are helpful and inspiring with their own outfits. I also loved the jewels and candles that spell stocks. I know a lot of local girls who swear by this place and around festival time its full with everyone picking floaty / festival outfits.

What a spot. Great views and vibes. Shared some wine and tapas here on a balmy night and what a great atmosphere this place had. Upstairs looking over a bustling town, Bay Leaf has the winning combo of good food + drinks + views. There is a great drinks list . My partner had a delicious cider and me a beautiful red. The octopus was perfectly seasoned and cooked. Worth a mention is the beautiful ladies room. There was such a wonderful, fragrant bunch of flowers in their .... Sometimes those little touches go a long way. A must visit in Byron

Bay Lead Cafe makes a good honest coffee. To be honest I have never eaten there but many a time have enjoyed a cuppa on one of the comfy seats facing the sun. Nice relaxed vibe and coffee is consistent. Enough space for a big group and a good spot if you're by yourself also.

Santos is a great mid sized healthfood shop that's got it all. A great range of dairy , fresh food, dried goods, bulk foods and a lovely range of personal care items/ oils / creams etc. I like that they support local brands and there is always something new to try when I pop in. There is a little cafe serving up fresh, tasty and super healthy food/treats/coffee/smoothies and best of all out the back is a shady courtyard to sit out with your mates and enjoy it all. I love picking up a banana smoothie and raw treat treat there. Staff are friendly and helpful. Prices can be a bit above what I would expect to pay but it is all great quality so i'm happy to pay that bit extra for some items (fresh fruit and veg is a bit too much though) . Santos is perfect for a big shop/ top up or just a treat

Beautiful- Amazing- Wonderful. Love it . Cannot fault it. The food is here perfection. A lot of it grown out the back in their own garden. Fresh as it gets. I had the fish of the day which came with the best brussel sprouts EVER. (never thought I'd say that). Ambiance is gorgeous- all candlelit elegance and greenery. The deck is a great spot to dine and enjoy the setting. Wine list is spot on . Had a beautiful shiraz from the clare valley. The whole experience is reasonably priced and i'd go back in a hearbeat

How good is this place. What a great little addition to the sleepy Hervey Bay dining scene. The food here is awesome. Just what you want when you go to a cafe. Thoughtful, fresh and delicious food. Some interesting menu options too with choices for gf and veggo. I had some poached eggs with the smoked salmon. THAT SALMON was unbelievable. I was expecting the packet type but it was a generous little fillet with perfect smoky flavour. Coffee= YUM . Well executed. Meals come out quick and the dining deck is really enjoyable. Staff are SO friendly and have personality and smiles (seriously lacking nowdays) . Can't wait to go back

YUM YUM YUM. Exactly what you want when you go out for a burger. Totally delicious ! And those sweet potato chips , don't even start me ... I could eat those everyday. I had the mushroom burger and it was just perfect. Mushroom was juicy and went so well with the other fillings. My partner had the buttermilk chicken burger and said it was awesome. They have great looking thickshakes too.

Salt has a stunning location. Beautiful, sweeping views across the famous bay. Food does not do this food justice. Most things seem frozen/reheated and the eggs taste like vinegar. Everything is really basic and lacks thought. Cheap white bread etc. The coffee is okay. It is on the hot/burnt side though. Meals are pretty pricey for the quality. The view saves it from being a total waste of time.

I went along to Jess's Thursday night hatha yoga class and really enjoyed it. What a great teacher she is- confident in her style of teaching while being gentle and encouraging to all participants. The relaxation part at the end was just what i needed and unlike in other classes, I was really able to 'switch off' during this. The space is gorgeous. Upstairs , bright and airy and with a great view of the bay. Classes are $15 and there is a wide range of days and times to choose from.

Can't beat it !!!!! Top shop still cranks out perfect coffee and amazing food. I love showing out of towners this little tucked away gem off the main tourist drag. The acai bowls are delicious in summer and I can't go past that mushroom burger in winter. A great range of healthy conscious stuff (and indulgent) keeps everyone happy. A must visit!
