Book NowAbout Hendriks Cafe
This former carpet factory trades standard egg-and-bacon plates for seafood-forward brunch, pulled espresso, and zero weekend surcharges. Set behind industrial white brick and light timber in Mordialloc, the room stays conversational across wide tables even through the mid-morning rush. Regulars skip the predictable cafe routine for crisp crab toast crowned with caviar, sweet lobster rolls, and Queensland prawn linguine cut with preserved lemon and capers. Pour-over heads get proper Moccamaster batch brew alongside coconut lattes, and staff dish out genuine banter while the dog relaxes on the terrace.
- Seafood-forward brunch: The kitchen skips standard bacon-and-eggs for crab toast with caviar, lobster rolls, and Queensland prawn linguine.
- Zero weekend surcharges: No extra percentage tacked onto food or specialty drinks on Saturdays and Sundays.
- Filter & specialty pours: Moccamaster batch brew runs alongside creative espresso drinks and iced pistachio chocolate.
