Stable Coffee & Kitchen
The Cornerstone café is a local spot for a great salad, coffee and bowl of hot chips. All of which can be enjoyed inside while working or lying on the grass outside with friends. We often stop by here between open homes on a Saturdays to grab some hot chips and iced coffee. This tight nit pocket of Currumbin is a great pocket that features some amazing treetop homes.
“At Stable Coffee and Kitchen, we aim to create a place that brings people together, a shared space for the local community and visitors alike.
With a focus on specialty coffee, we serve Melbourne’s micro-roster Seven Seeds and feature guest roasters such as Ruben Hills, Single O and Onibus on the Moccamaster filter.
Stable kitchen reflects the healthy lifestyle that we live on the Southern Gold Coast. Our chefs work with renowned local suppliers to feature Australian seafood, organic meats, and sourdough from artisan Bread Social and Burleigh Baker. Our menu, which caters to a range of dietary requirements, including vegan, vegetarian and gluten-free, changes seasonally to feature the abundant produce available to the Gold Coast throughout the year. “ - https://www.cornerstonestores.com/stable-coffee-kitchen
