These places are hands down locals favourites for a yummy coffee and a sneaky bite to eat...
This place is hands down the best place for a coffee. The line of people out the front may put you off, but they are quick! Make sure you order the avo on toast or an acai bowl... you won't be disappointed.

The Kingscliff Pub is a great place to drop into to watch some live music and enjoy a cold beer. They always have something going on and the food ain't too bad as well. On Friday and Saturdays around 10pm, they turn the sports bar into a little dj section for you to have a little boogie. The pub is also equipped with a playground for the kids!
HINT: Don't go there for cocktails as there are way better places to order them at and cheaper... go there for the atmosphere!!!

City/town information
Everyone knows that Byron Bay is a great place to visit. What I like most is that it is only a 30 minute drive away...so you can enjoy a solid day here on the beach, eating in restaurants, sneaking in a beer at the Beach hotel, but you get to leave back to Kingscliff afterwards where it is less busy...
I would recommend you go to walk to the lighthouse, visit the 'Treehouse Cafe' in belongil, have a beer at the famous 'Beach hotel' or 'Stone and Wood Brewery' or visit 'The Farm'. There is a lot of shops to cruise through and a heap of incredible cafes and restaurants to eat at. Oh, and do not forget the people watching is fun too!
HINT: Street sushi is hands down the best sushi in Northern NSW! Go buy four massive rolls for $11 and sit on the grass at the main beach and people watch!

Coolangatta is just a short 20 minute drive North. Here you will find the famous 'Snapper Rocks' point. Be warned that if you wish to surf here and it is your first time, be prepared to surf with another few hundred people.
Coolangatta is a great town to visit for a day. Why not perch yourself on the beach, visit the famous 'Rainbow Bay Surfclub' for lunch, or peruse the shops. There is always something on in Cooly and the beaches are always crystal clear... so if we have had a lot of rain and our beaches are all brown, head up there to a tropical oasis.
