👍👍 When your acai bowl comes loaded with natural crunchy peanut butter at an affordable price you know you’ve found a winner. Bit of a wait as it’s super popular early in the morning when I went, but I didn’t mind. Would definitely go back and try their other bowls.

    Best açaí bowls along the QLD & northern NSW coastline. Incredible! The perfect consistency and toppings. I get the original add peanut butter. Have taken all my friends here and you just cannot beat it. Such great taste with yummy fruit and good serving size for what you pay for.

    The salty is a full 4223 experience. Currumbin’s finest serving up insane acai bowls, scrumptious baked goods & caffeinated bevvies to die for. Need I say more?

    Delicious açaí bowl full of toppings & love the fact that put granola at the bottom of the bowl! It’s the details for me! 🙌🏽 Muffins are moist & tastey as well!

    The coffee was absolutely amazing and it was very fast and the bagel sandwich’s are also delicious I love how close it is to the beach and how easy it is to take your food and eat on the sand at the beach

    Great coffee. Lovely staff. Nice vibe. Pleasant change to the hype, pretense & tackiness sadly so often associated with the GC. Well done team!

    They are definitely known for their reasonably priced acai; you get what you pay for.

    Amazing coffee, decent prices, the girls up front are always so lovely serving even when it’s crazy busy. Quick to get the coffees out. I only steer clear when the run clubs are piling in.. the footpath is way too rammed for a pram and most of those customers have zero spacial awareness, but froth on it when it’s not peak hour mornings.

    Good selection of sandwiches, açai bowls and small snacks. Fresh juices and great coffee. The girls that work there are really lovely too plus the location couldn’t get any better! Great pit stop after a morning at the beach

    Best açai bowls I’ve had. The food is always great. The service is always awful. Coffee is a hit and miss.

    The acai bowls are out of this world! So good. Loved getting a fresh acai bowl and coffee and going for a nice beach walk when I lived on the Gold Coast. I miss it!

    Have visited here twice in the last week and the food & service have both been excellent. First visit, I had an acai bowl and it was one of the best I’ve ever had and very reasonably priced. Second visit, we had a coffee, toasted chicken & avo sandwich, avo on sourdough and carrot cake. All the food was delicious and so fresh. We didn’t try them however the muffins were freshly baked on site and looked delicious. Highly recommend and will definitely be back!

    Acai bowl is so niceeee, service is very fast even the queue is long

    We ordered some açai bowls and a chicken & avocado toasted sandwich. Both were excellent. We sat next to a couple who live at nearby Tugun who said they thought they were the best açai bowls in the Gold Coast. Strong flat white wasn’t that strong but not terrible:) Long wait as it’s popular and there is little seating but opposite the beach and overall v good and staff v friendly.

    My go to for my every day coffee. Occasionally have the chicken avo sandwich or açai bowl and they never disappoint. Friendly staff and right in front of the beautiful Currumbin beach. Couldn’t ask for anything else.

  • 5/5 Nikki van A. 1 year ago on Google
    We ordered an açaí bowl, chia pudding, flat white, and iced oat milk. Great quality food and so fresh! Also great options for vegetarians and vegans.

    Best coffee. Quite the local gathering spot. Always some local to chat to. My spot for a morning coffee after a beach walk.

  • 5/5 Will L. 5 years ago on Google
    Really nice coffee. The acaia granola bowl was very tasty! Really great little coffee shop. They also sell some great pottery and other home decor right next door. Highly recommend.

    Don't worry about the big queue out the front, the staff at The Salt Mill pump out the coffees. Best coffee in the area and the Acai Bowls are delicious. This was much first Acai Bowl and now I'm hooked.

  • 4/5 Maria G. 1 year ago on Google
    The acai bowl was great, the coffee is great too! The only negative side the cashier was not happy when I asked for tax invoice...😊

  • 4/5 Rebecca C. 1 year ago on Google
    Small 'hole in the wall' place but excellent coffee and snacks, and fantastic Acai bowls. Can get busy and not much seating area is the only thing, but the beach is right across the road so plenty of space over there to enjoy a takeaway order!

    We had the Avo chicken sandwich and the Reuben sandwich, they were so good! The bread is really good!! Delicious coffee. The cafe is really small, not a lot of seats but as it's right in front of the beach you can take your coffee and sandwich and sit by the beach.

    Hidden gem. People who work there are good as gold and the food and fresh juices are as wholesome as they get.
