Ranking for best coffee on the Coast;
Burnt Honey Bakery - the wait can be long but the coffee is excellent.
Like Minds Avoca - consistently good coffee and friendly folks.
Lords of Pour and Smoke on the Water at Ettalong.
Looloos cafe and Macs Beach Cafe at MacMasters
Coast 175 at Ettalong
Oomph at East Gosford
Coffee in Terrigal, well there are plenty of spots to get a coffee but nowhere sadly that really excels in my humble view. Try Island Time Espresso Bar in the group of restaurants and bars facing the beach opposite the car park. Rating 7
Avoca has a couple of goodies, Becker and Co on the main road just past the shopping area. Rating 7 Just out of town along Avoca Dve on the corner of The Round Dve is a little cafe called Like Minds, great atmosphere and good coffee. Rating 7.5
At Copa the Burnt Honey Bakery is a sensation for coffees, chai's and pastries, coffee 7.5.
If you are heading to Gosford stop in at Oomph in East Gosford for a coffee rated 7.5.
In Woywoy head to Young Barons, a deli cafe with lots of very yummy stuff and good coffee 7.5.
Erina try Maxima Coffee Roasters
