Open menuWhy it's worth checking out
CHILL BISTRO. is a locally family-owned cafe, restaurant and bar on The Esplanade in Golden Beach, Caloundra. Its elevated bistro deck looks across the South Pacific Ocean, Kings Beach, Bribie Island and the Pumicestone Passage, with views of changing tides, native birdlife, kite surfing and other water sports.
The venue serves breakfast, lunch and dinner, along with all-day coffee and drinks. The website says its menu is prepared fresh in-house, with produce sourced through local vendors and Genovese Italian coffee served daily. Dinner is available from 3pm to 8pm, according to the listed menu information.
The setting is relaxed, oceanfront and family-friendly, with both indoor and outdoor dining. The licensed restaurant seats up to 80 people, making it suitable for casual meals, family outings and group gatherings. CHILL also has event managers and offers the venue for weddings and other events, with different service styles, layouts and food and beverage packages available.
Established in 2015, the business has operated in the Caloundra area for 10 years and describes itself as a local favourite and regular choice for locals. Its broad day-to-night offering and waterfront position make it a practical option for anyone wanting a coastal meal with a view, rather than a venue focused on one particular dining occasion.
