Relaxed and casual, you’ll feel right at home in the Rockingham cafe scene.

Over the years it has quietly transformed into a premier coastal spot for those sunny summer days and lazy afternoons, and the cafe scene has certainly kept up.

Get the family together and make a day of it as you hit the waves and then stroll along the foreshore for some well-deserved food and drink to while away the afternoon.

1. Lu Lu’s

A beloved family-owned cafe in the heart of Rockingham, Lu Lu’s serves up delicious homemade meals and just as delicious Vittoria coffee on the foreshore. 

You’ll feel right at home with hearty menu items like avo smash, breakfast bruschetta, carbonara, big brekkie, and beef burgers while you overlook the beach.

It’s the perfect spot for a Saturday morning breakfast, and your furry friends are welcome to tag along- they’ll even get a treat of their own on arrival.

2. Spill The Beans at Palm Beach Jetty

Coastal views and a relaxing family-friendly atmosphere, Spill The Beans is the ideal laidback spot to grab yourself an all-day breakfast and a freshly squeezed juice.

The eggs benedict is a definite menu highlight, and their coffee won’t disappoint either. If you decide to grab one takeaway it’s only a short stroll away from the jetty for some sunshine and ocean spray. 


3. OSTRO Eatery 

Meet this laidback joint serving up fresh meals, cold-pressed juices and Seven Sins coffee.

They source local food with a modern influence, dishing up a brunch menu starring sweet waffles, chilli eggs, a range of bennies, and pork belly adobo. 

You can also grab yourself a refreshing morning cocktail to wash it all down- because it’s 5 O’Clock somewhere right?
