Your new local.Slow mornings, great coffee.
Single-origin coffee, all-day brunch and house-baked everything — a warm little room a block from the sand where everyone knows your order.
Good coffee, real food, and a seat by the window.
Specialty coffee
House-roasted single origins and a silky signature blend, poured by baristas who actually care.
All-day brunch
From the big breakfast to corn fritters and acai bowls — served till close, because brunch has no rules.
House-baked goods
Sourdough, croissants and that banana bread people drive across town for. Baked fresh each morning.
Weekend long lunches
Local wine, share plates and a sunny courtyard — the kind of lunch that turns into the afternoon.
Dietary friendly
Plenty of gluten-free, vegan and dairy-free options — just ask, we've got you.
Catering & events
Grazing boxes, coffee carts and function bookings for your next get-together.
Built on good mornings.
Family-owned · beachside
We opened The Driftwood with one idea: a proper neighbourhood café where the coffee's excellent, the welcome's warm, and you never feel rushed. Everything that can be made in-house, is. Pull up a stool, meet the regulars, and stay a while.

Best coffee on the coast, hands down. The banana bread is dangerous. My go-to every single morning.
Lovely staff, gorgeous space and the brunch is unreal. We bring every out-of-town visitor here.
Cosy, welcoming and genuinely great food. Feels like your kitchen, if your kitchen had a brilliant barista.
