Natural timber features throughout the rustic-chic interior of this lively cafe-bar, which has a great postsurf vibe. The upper level has a sun-drenched terrace overlooking the sea, while the ground floor has a toasty wood-burning stove and opens out to a laneway with picnic tables. Coffees, juices and smoothies are available, along with cocktails and beers.
