The Itinerary

Trail: Instagrammable food

Kew Dining

Art on a plate

It has to be seen to be believed that the high tea at Kew Dining is truly art on a plate. What's more Instagram-worthy than delicate China plates adorned with cream-filled tea cakes and English scones topped with edible flowers and dried rose petals? Upon arrival, you'll also receive a glass of sparkling wine that goes down a treat with your savoury delights and sweet indulgences. This high tea experience emanates sophistication, deserving a spot right on your Instagram feed.

Warnie's Railway Cafe

Creators of the Crazy Shakes

Hum along if you know the theme tune! Crazy Shakes are a Central Coast classic, so a pit-stop to see the menu is essential for foodie tourists. The flavours and colourful shakes live up to their name, enjoyed in the 1890s heritage listed building. Don't miss their loaded waffles, which are out of this world.

Green Tangerine

Rainbow on a plate

This cosy corner Long Jetty cafe pulls out all the stops to create moreish brekkie dishes that are a feast for the taste buds and the eyes. From bright smoothies to rainbow-hued salads and brekkie burgers, every one of their dishes and drinks is packed with flavour and colours of the rainbow. Snap a photo of your dish in front of the vibrant Long Jetty mural to add an extra 'pop' of colour to your Insta feed.

The Banger Rebellion

Gourmet hot dogs

Rolling out of a mobile food truck, The Banger Rebellion are bringing more than just gourmet hot dogs. Their "OB" Original Banger is doused with beef and pork longonisa sausage, the Chilli Uprising brings a Mexican fusion and their Die Bestenwurst, translating to 'The Best Sausage' is just the start of their endless menu bringing mouth-watering delights to the locals of Ettalong Beach.

Woy Woy Fishermen's Wharf

Quality seafood with a view

Serving up fine and fresh seafood, Woy Woy Fishermen's Wharf is a must-visit spot if you're looking for a waterfront seafood dining experience. Not only are their platters carefully curated into a masterpiece to celebrate the essence of the sea, but the view looking out to Empire Bay is spectacular.

Hernandos

Mexican fiesta

Bringing the South American flavour and the Mexican vibes, Hernandos Birria tacos deserve a spot on your feed and in your tummy. Take the freshly made crispy soft tortilla filled to the brim with slow cooked brisket and dip it in their homemade consommé.

Bouffant

Fluffy goodness for everyone

Experience the Willy Wonka-esque vibes of Bouffant in one of Gosford city’s heritage listed buildings. This place has lines of fresh pastries for days and the pinkest pastel walls, making a perfect backdrop to savour the the sweetest of moments. Go for the signature 'bouffant' namesake. Find Bouffant bakeries across the Central Coast at Gosford, Terrigal, Umina and East Gosford.

Bowlarama Bowls

Home of the Smoothie Bowl

Enhance your exotic experience with one of Bali’s most famous exports – the smoothie bowl – enjoyed at the Kincumber, Terrigal and Long Jetty. Deliciously healthy and totally photogenic plant-based smoothies and bowls in a beautiful coastal locale = paradise!

Mumbo Jumbos

Cocktails with a view

A visit to the seaside suburb of Terrigal is not complete without an obligatory rooftop cocktail on the Mumbo Jumbos balcony. Snap the tropical island vibes under your own umbrella with their island-style decor and the sandy shore in the background.
