Solace & Sip.

Solace & Sip is a re-purposed café project located at Griffith University, Gold Coast. Our mission is to create a dynamic and inviting space that resonates with the lively spirit of university life. Designed for students and staff seeking a break from their academic pursuits, Solace & Sip offers a vibrant atmosphere that beautifully merges the essence of campus life with the calming rhythm of coastal living.
