The Beach Hut Cafe

You're walking down Cliff Drive on a decent day and suddenly you get why people bother with the coast. The Beach Hut Cafe sits right where it should—close enough to the water that you can taste the salt air, far enough back that you're not eating sand with your eggs. It's unpretentious stuff: strong coffee, honest breakfasts, the kind of sandwiches that don't need explaining. The sort of place where regulars actually know each other's names, and tourists keep coming back because they've stumbled onto something that doesn't feel like it's trying too hard.
