Visit websiteAbout Dune Cafe, Currumbin
Perched on Currumbin Creek parkland steps from the sand, Dune Cafe catches the morning rush of swimmers and sandy dogs. Early risers count on the 6 a.m. doors for espresso and plates of brekky while toddlers tackle the playground next door. Out on the grass, pups lounge beside water bowls as the kitchen sends out chilli scrambled eggs and Angus burgers—leaving visitors on the move to skip the table wait at the dedicated takeaway window.
- Creekside Parkland Setting: Sits directly in Currumbin Parkland overlooking the water, steps from the creek beach and a sprawling kids' playground.
- Tailor-Made for Dogs: Spacious outdoor dining areas supply fresh water bowls right along the walking path to the dog beach.
- Separate Takeaway Window: A dedicated ordering window and separate line keep grab-and-go coffee and food moving fast.
