Don’t believe everything negative you read on Google reviews or you may never go anywhere - nobody can please everyone 100% of the time, esp the Karen’s of the world New to the area so wanted to try Curly’s on a sunny sat morning… service was prompt & friendly, helpful with my GF/DF requests & they even offered some GF corn fritters that the chef was trying out - all delicious. Nice relaxing ambience, looking forward to returning for lunch and dinner

Service was AMAZING, food DELICIOUS, atmosphere JUST RIGHT. After a sweaty hike up Mt. Coolum we just wanted somewhere with great variety for everyone & this was it! Slightly hidden from the main hike but totally worth the 3mins drive lol.Wish I remembered the girl who served us as she was so patient, understanding & amazing with our large group (Sunday March 26th 9-10am) - 5STARS!

We just loved our visit to Curlys today. The service was excellent, the food beautifully presented and we all agreed it tasted amazing. We went for a walk along the boardwalk down to the beach after and had coffee before driving home. Finding Curlys today just made our day and we hope to come back and try something else on the menu another time. Thank you for such a friendly welcoming experience!

Stopped here for brunch, which was fairly busy Friday morning. Lovely atmosphere and very friendly and welcoming. Lovely food choices for breakfast.All next to the boardwalk leading to the beach.

Lovely place for outside brunch and good food and smiling service. I would have preferred toasted sourdough on the smash avocado. Please note that If you’re allergic to dogs this is probably not the place for you as there were multiple dogs, large and small at lots of tables.

Wow! What a beautiful spot and fantastic food. The service was lovely and everyone was very friendly. One of the best breakfast experiences I've ever had! They also catered for vegan options without it being an issue.I had the zucchini fritter & chai latte and I was I heaven 10/10 recommend these legends!

Returning to this venue after a long time away, I was wondering if it would still reach my expectations. I need not have stressed as it exceeded them particularly in terms of service and food freshness.We were there for lunch and were greeted by a very helpful and friendly team member, who took time to answer our questions and to give recommendations. We had Soft Fish Tacos, and Gnocchi with mushrooms and feta. The tacos were fresh and filling, with a battered flathead fillet served on a crunchy slaw with chipotle sauce served in a dish on the side. This meal was accompanied by a glass of Pinot Gris. The Gnocchi was soft and fluffy with a tasteful creamy mushroom sauce, crunchy sourdough bread and a slice of lemon. This was accompanied by a glass of cab merlot.
