As a Bronte local this is my favorite place on the Bronte strip - I like to visit them all during the year to check on the competitors offerings. Thought I'd give it a review since I can't believe the low rating it has so I thought I'd do a review garnered over many visits.. Also since I have been coming here for a while, I know the owners changed since most of these reviews so I'd give a more recent assessment. Favorites menu items include the Salina egg stack, prawn linguine and Seafood platter for two. This place can also serve you wine and beer but I usually go with a coffee during the day.

Service is good even though this is a busy spot. Grabbing a seat outside to see the ocean through the palm trees in the park is my favourite but sitting indoors is good too. Prices here compare well here with the others and for me you get 'restaurant' service and food so I'm wondering if the should drop the 'Caffe' from the title - especially since they are open some evenings too.

I really like this cafe out of the ones surrounding it, it can just be such a busy spot sometimes which can ruin the ambience of the beach setting. The menu here is really well rounded, with fresh and healthy ingredients well put together. We went with vouchers which were not meant to be used on a Sunday, which they overlooked for us seeing it was coming up to expiry, which I thought was really lovely.

The food we ordered was delicious, although I would say that my boyfriend's breakfast stack wasn't really a 'stack' and it came with a salad which is a bit strange for breakfast. The coffee was great and as it wasn't the most sunny of days and early, we missed the rush, which made it much more pleasant.

Went into here for lunch today, & was shown to a table. 10 minutes later without any further attention from the staff (no menus, no drinks, no nothing!) we left.

I had a really nice lunch here yesterday. We ordered the flathead fish and chips, the grilled barramundi and the roasted beetroot and pumpkin salad. All were very tasty with large servings. The salad was perhaps a touch oily, but still enjoyable. Our waitress was very friendly too. Too be honest, I didn't expect to get such value at Bronte Beach.

Lil Neecy and I dropped in for a light breakfast during our coastal walk one weekday morning recently. We had no issue with the service which was friendly while the quality of the foods and coffees were good (The Berry and yoghurt compote was exceptional). Above average casual cafe although, perhaps, not chic enough for the 'in crowd'.

Scrambled eggs were nice, coffee good also. Friendly staff. Would like to see omelette on the menu, it wasn't when I was there, hope to see it next time!

Great food in a beautiful setting. Highly impressed by the attentiveness of the owner and staff to our requests, and checking at intervals we were happy. Cannot believe the low rating given.

One of the most boring cafes ever. The music was too loud, service non existent, the food took so long to come we nearly left. The omelette was overcooked and dry. We seemed to have lots of salad though which was unusual as we did not order any. We shall try another cafe next time.
