Beach House

You're sitting right on The Spit with water on three sides of you, which immediately puts Beach House in a different league from your standard high street café. It's the kind of place where locals genuinely come for breakfast, not just tourists passing through—though you'll see both. The menu's straightforward stuff done well: good coffee, decent brunch plates, cakes that don't taste like cardboard. Weather permitting, grab an outside table and watch the boats; on grey days, the interior's bright enough that you're not staring into gloom with your cappuccino.
