Close to home: ● Mikro - for house-roasted coffee beans and a coffee brewed by an expert, you honestly can't go past a cuppa from Mikro ● Ginger Monkey - choose from grab-and-go or sit-down to order from the menu; this local fave is always pumping. Head there on the right day, and you might even be treated to freshly cooked paella ● 4 Pines - brews, good food, live music - it doesn't get better than this ● Torquay Pub - Another one for live music lovers, this institution has a jam-packed rotation of Australian artists playing on its stage! Beaches ● Jan Juc - It's a local fave for a good reason; there are waves and gorgeous views of the coastal cliffs - definitely don't miss a visit here. ● Torquay Surf Beach - learning to surf?
