A tale of two countries is on the menu at Garuma café on Shute Harbour Road in Airlie Beach. Bringing their Portuguese and German influences to this trendy venue, Tiago and Verena Ribeiro celebrate the tropical north's lifestyle with a large image of surf lifesavers on the wall, alongside black wrought iron screens, a wooden frontage and potted palms to create a chilled-out vibe for leisurely dining. After an early morning beach walk, stop by for one of the best coffees in town along with a delicious Australian-European style breakfast - from eggs Benedict to toasties and grilled halloumi. Whether you’re after a light or filling lunch, choose from healthy salad options, fresh sandwiches, try the popular succulent parmigiana, or chicken schnitzel burger with a cold beer, cocktail or wine.
