Beautiful cafe. I have been multiple times but never been inside or out the back . wow the decor is amazing. Food was delicious, service was great and the owner who was sitting a couple of seats over was so kind and lovely to her staff members. My partner even handed in a resume because the owner Kathy was so lovely. We will definitely be back. Also the price of the food was reasonable. Under $40 for two coffees and 3 breakfasts. Yummo ❤️ I felt like I could sit here all day long and eat brekky and lunch and relax. Can't wait to return.

First time here and very impressed with the beautiful service, the staff were lovely and welcoming. Drinks and food came out extremely quick and tasted amazing. Great experience and great place for breakfast

Delicious 🤤 Calamari salad was very good, good seasoning, calamari cooked perfectly, salad fresh👍 Beef bourguignon with roast potatoes, excellent! Turkish chicken avocado cheese toasted sandwich👏, the chef has sprinkled some sesame on the bread, brought out good flavor, such a warm touch👍👍👍 Relax atmosphere, lovely peoples, good food. Reasonable price. Happy meal🥧 Highly recommended 👍👍👍👍👍

We were pleasantly surprised by the great quality of drinks and cake which we ordered. The mocha frappe was beautiful, no added sugar, just mocha with crushed ice. The summer sling juice was freshly pressed and refreshing. The coconut and lemon pie tasted divine! Would highly recommend it!

Everything was DELIGHTFUL! The chef came to our table to check on us, and see if we were happy with our order.. 10/10 Coffee 👌

Beautiful atmosphere, fantastic service and delicious food! Lovely coffee and pretty little spaces to dine, catch up with friends, meet for a drink or just soak up the vibe of Tedder Ave. Highly recommend!

Safe option. Recommend. My regular for weekday coffee. Decent. Shame about the aggressive old women and cyclists. And cops. The coffee is good - probably tips hot shots & hard coffee out. The French joint probably has it for vibe & offerings - but it is too busy.

Casual lunch with friends today and was oh so pleasantly surprised to discover what seems like a secret outdoor dining area. Small lunch menu but The Local does offer an all day breakfast, which is always great! Food was served relatively quickly and all three of us ate everything on our plates. Cute little venue on Tedder Ave, wouldn’t mind going back and checking out breakfast.

Best coffee in Main Beach Spacious and stylish venue - with dog friendly outdoor area and lane way entrance great staff and menu - signature dish is corn fritters & avo YUM !

Always a great experience at The Local! The food is delicious and always arrives fast. The staff are friendly and attentive. 10/10

Not only is the service wonderful, our server was smiley, happy and kind, the café is just adorable. My bircher was just delicious! Totally recommend to anyone who loves bircher. Thank you for the lovely meal

Our new favourite place in Surfers Paradise. We came here for lunch to get away from the mass produced, deep fried, over priced junk food at the nearby theme park. What a refreshing surprise! The coffee is excellent, the food delicious and the welcome is so warm you feel like you're visiting old friends who haven't seen you in ages. So glad we saved room for the banofee pie - very generous and delicious! Beautiful decor, large menu and tempting desserts, all topped off with genuinely friendly service and a large range of colouring books for the little ones. Love this place!

Service was quick. Food was okay & prices were average. The place is tucked around the corner, so you miss out on any water views. Worth a visit.
