Cafe Del Mar
Cafe Del Mar
Right in the middle of charming Nelly Bay, Cafe Del Mar is quickly becoming the local favourite for breakfast and brunch. Taking over the spot where Scallywags used to be, they’ve kept the same chilled island vibe with fresh, tasty food to match.
They open early at 7 a.m. and serve up crowd-pleasers all morning and into the afternoon until 2 p.m. Their menu focuses on using local, organic, and free-range ingredients, and there’s something for everyone—vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free options included.
Grab a freshly brewed coffee, dig into a big breakfast, enjoy a juicy burger, or treat yourself to a slice of cake or something sweet from the cabinet. Families love the kids’ play area, and with the marina just a short walk away, it’s a great spot to stop before or after exploring the island.

Good honest food: They serve up proper breakfasts and burgers, with plenty of veggie, vegan, and gluten-free options that actually taste good.
Kid-friendly vibe: They’ve got a play area for the little ones, so parents can kick back and relax without worrying about keeping the kids entertained.
