The Kiosk serves Mikro Coffee Roasters’ locally roasted coffee using the outback blend, made with 50 per cent Australian-grown coffee, blended with 30 per cent fairly and directly traded premium Bali coffee and 20 per cent fairly traded Mexican coffee.<\/p>\n

The blend is rich and satisfying, with notes of chocolate, caramel, almonds and a hint of fruit, making it enjoyable with milk or black.<\/p>\n

With new monthly rotating jaffle and hot drink specials designed by each member of The Kiosk team, there is always something fresh to try.<\/p>\n

The Kiosk Torquay at Surf City Plaza has been serving locals and visitors since 2014, with early openings and easy access making it a go-to stop.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

 <\/p>\n

The Kiosk Torquay proudly uses locally farmed, proper free-range, award-winning eggs from Xavier, operator of Chooks at The Rook, for all baking and jaffles.<\/p>\n

The milk comes direct from a local dairy farming family, Julian and Dianne Benson from Apostle Whey, based in Corriemungle, just two hours from Torquay.<\/p>\n

If you are after a quick coffee and something tasty to snack on, The Kiosk Torquay is a perfect go-to smoko destination.<\/p>\n
