Very nice coffee shop, tucked away in the little shopping centre at Wongaling Beach. Very proud baristas, they like to make good coffee ! And they don’t disappoint. It was great ! Plenty of breakfast snacks available as well. I had the ham, cheese and Tomato croissant. Asked for it toasted. But that wasn’t necessary. It was the nicest and freshest ham cheese croissant I have ever had . Staff very friendly And shop is very quaint. Nicely decorated !

A little coffee shop, Ben and Wendy are great hosts, always friendly. Wendy makes the best cheese cakes, and they are delicious. I have restricted myself to 1 slice per week, but sometimes lose count of days since my last slice. A nice family business with great service, I would recommend "The Shack" to everyone.

Really spectacular coffee. We've been on the road for a month, and some of the "coffee" we had was pretty dire. These guys have friendly efficient service and clearly know their coffee: good strong taste, beautiful foam and latte art. Good cabinet foods too. I had a GF frittata, was just enough for a light brekky or lunch. Yummo. Thanks for the caffeination, it was really needed and appreciated. (Loved the 90s tunes too )
