About Beach Cafe Seaford

Perched directly on the Seaford foreshore by the pier, this breezy coastal spot pairs sweeping Port Phillip Bay views with serious morning fuel. Regulars head straight for the outdoor deck—equipped with overhead heaters and warm fleece blankets when winter rolls across the water. Morning crowds pile in for freshly squeezed orange juice, strong flat whites, and the towering Avolanche, easily swapped with house-made vegan feta or gluten-free bread.

  • Foreshore Pier Views: Unobstructed panorama across the sand and Seaford Pier from both indoor tables and the alfresco deck.
  • Heated Winter Deck: Outdoor decking outfitted with heaters and warm blankets for seaside dining in cold weather.
  • Dietary-Friendly Fare: Kitchen accommodates dietary needs with house-made vegan feta, gluten-free choices, and lactose-free milk.

Direct foreshore views, year-round outdoor warmth, and a relaxing seaside dining experience in Seaford

  • Hearty Coastal Breakfast Options

    Generous cafe plates like the signature Avolanche are paired with morning coffee and unobstructed coastal sights.

    We both had the Avolanche with bacon & it was impressive with a generous serving.

  • Calming Coastal Atmosphere

    The seaside setting and peaceful ambience provide an unhurried, holiday-like environment for coastal visits.

    The beach view was absolutely beautiful and made the whole atmosphere feel really relaxing.

  • Uplifting Holiday Vibes

    Boardwalk access and waterside alfresco seating evoke a refreshing seaside getaway vibe on every visit.

    Heading down the boardwalk & setting my eyes upon the beautiful crystal clear water gave me holiday vibes.

  • Warm Year-Round Deck Seating

    The outdoor seaside deck is equipped with blankets and heaters, ensuring comfortable waterside dining in cooler weather.

    For those brave enough to sit outside with the bay views there are heaters and blankets to curl up in.

    It was a rather chilly morning so the lovely girl (i didn’t catch her name) came and offered us blankets

  • Big Brekky

    The team have perfected the Big Brekky with all the essentials (and more), prepared to a high standard, presented beautifully, and delivered by friendly staff.

  • Cypriot Kotopoulo

    For myself, I chose the Cypriot Kotopoulo. Presentation was excellent. No problem. Two skewers of chicken. In all. A good portion. The chicken tasted good with plenty of flavour.

    The pastries in the cabinet were calling my name but couldn't go past the French toast.

Beyond the menu

Thoughtful details and tailored hospitality that make every coastal visit comfortable

  • Cosy Deck Blankets

    On chilly mornings and brisk winter days, waitstaff proactively provide cosy blankets to guests on the deck so they can take in the water views in warmth.

  • Outdoor Heaters for Winter Dining

    For those who want to dine outdoors year-round, dedicated deck heating ensures coastal breakfasts remain warm and inviting despite the sea breeze.

  • In-House Vegan Feta Substitutions

    Rather than simply removing ingredients from popular dishes like the Avolanche, the kitchen crafts its own house-made vegan feta for a properly balanced plate.

  • Dog-Friendly Coastal Hospitality

    Guests dining with their pets are welcomed with open arms, offering thoughtful comfort and water-side alfresco hospitality for dogs.

Before you head over

Practical tips on parking, timing, and seasonal deck seating for your coastal visit

  • Plan ahead for parking

    The foreshore car park can fill up quickly and requires paid council parking ($6 unless you hold a local Frankston permit). For easier parking during busy periods, head across the road and take a short walk through the shops.

  • Book ahead for peak hours

    The cafe gets very busy during peak lunch and weekend mornings. Book your table ahead of time or arrive early to ensure you get a spot without a long wait.

  • Stay warm on the outdoor deck

    You don't need to skip the deck when the weather turns cold. Staff provide cozy blankets and outdoor heaters so you can comfortably enjoy the coastal views even on chilly winter mornings.
