Overview

If you find yourself in Terrigal, you absolutely need to swing by Island Time Espresso Bar. Nestled snugly on the Terrigal Esplanade, right by the beach car park, this little gem has been dishing out tropical-inspired bites since it opened in February 2016.

Walking in, the vibe kinda hits you—it’s laid-back but also buzzing with energy. The staff? Super friendly, always ready to get you a seat, even when the place is packed. Often, I feel like I’m stepping into a friend’s home, where you’re welcomed with a giant Aloha!

Let’s talk food – my goodness! The Salmon Poké Bowl is a standout—just fresh, juicy sashimi, and a colorful medley of veggies. And don’t even get me started on that Hawaiian Burger. If you’re into big flavors, it won’t disappoint. If you have a sweet tooth, the Açai bowl is a must-try too. Seriously, it’s like a tropical vacation in a bowl!

Now, I’ve seen mixed reviews about it being busy and service being a little slow at times, but honestly? Good food takes time, right? Plus, grab a seat outside, soak up the sun, and take in those beach views. You might just forget about the wait.

The coffee’s another highlight, though some folks have pointed out inconsistency. But on a good day? Those cups of warmth are just what you need.

Island Time’s atmosphere feels cozy and casual—great for groups, solo diners, or even students hammering out assignments. They’ve got a good selection for breakfast, brunch, and lunch, plus choices for vegans and health-conscious eaters.

And oh, dog owners will be thrilled – there’s a pet-friendly outdoor area. I mean, what’s better than sipping coffee with your furry friend lounging at your feet?

So, the next time you’re around Terrigal, maybe skip the fast food chains and treat yourself to some island vibes at Island Time. Grab a chair, kick back, and enjoy what feels like a slice of tropical bliss on the coast. You’ll likely find your happy spot right here!
