Tucked behind the shipyard security boom gates at GCCM, this breezy waterfront perch looks straight out across moored yachts on the Coomera River. Mornings belong to rich, tannin-heavy espresso pulls and breakfast burgers beside the slipway.

Sweet Potato Hash
I order the sweet potato hash with egg and avocado and it was yummier and more filling than I expected
Brooke Norton Eggs Benedict
The Eggs Benedict I ordered was nothing short of perfection – the poached eggs were impeccably cooked with velvety yolks that oozed richness, and the hollandaise sauce had just the right balance of creaminess and tanginess.
Phillip Walker (oppolot) Blue Trevally
For main, we had the Blue Trevally, and this was quite beautiful for such a simple dish. Crispy skin with delicate flesh, very fresh tasting, lightly seasoned to avoid overpowering the natural goodness of that beautiful fish.
Clint Palmer Trout
We enjoyed the trout with crumb, honey carrots, broccollini and chat potatoes.

The dips were phenomenal, the olive tepanade was supreme and the flat bread, I just wish there was more, however they were very good.

Dessert was sublime, a Labneh ice cream with sweet Dukkah, and berries, a perfect way to finish off the meal.
