A mishmash of recycled furniture and vintage ephemera, side-street Velo is an easy-going, breezy affair. Here, locals play board games while munching on date-and-macadamia compote with fresh banana, salted butterscotch and ice cream, or toasted ciabatta topped with Fraser Isle spanner crab, tomato salsa, asparagus, avocado and wasabi-and-turmeric mayo. Great, locally roasted coffee too.
