So we know many of you, like ourselves, have been working, living, stressing, stress eating and trying to stop our children from destroying the house at the moment due to the recent pandemic of the dreaded ‘c’ word.

And sometimes, you need a break.

But this isn’t 2019 and the idea of just ‘ducking’ to the shops to grab some bread and milk (whilst simultaneously meeting a friend for brunch, window shopping through Myer then buying all the dupes of that throw rug, crockery set and candle collection at Kmart), just seems laughable.

So the shops are out of the picture.

However, we have found a great solution that not only makes social distancing a more fun and easy experience but also supports your local business’!! We have compiled a list of all our favourite cafes/restaurants that are still open for takeaway at the time we are writing this post. You may need to check if they are still operating at the time you are reading this blog post.

Click HERE to see a list of all the cafes open on the coast currently! And if they are closed put them on your list to support after this crazy time!!

So grab your hand sanitizer, toilet paper, and your wallet and go get a takeaway coffee and some yummy food!!
