About Cafe Limoncello

Perched across from Sandringham station, Cafe Limoncello serves up punchy espresso, creative breakfast plates, and chilled daytime spritzes steps from the bay. Sandringham locals treat this seaside hub like an extension of their living room—stopping in unhurried for a flat white and the daily paper, or fueling beach mornings with a breakfast burrito and bacon roll. Plates stray far from the standard cafe script: housemade gnocchi with beef cheek ragu and crispy chicken burgers share real estate with zucchini fritters and dill-draped smoked trout benedict on potato rösti. Out on the sunny footpath tables, mid-morning coffee comfortably shifts into an afternoon Negroni or a refreshing house limoncello spritz.

  • Daytime Spritzes & Cocktails: Pairs house espresso with limoncello spritzes, Negronis, and espresso martinis for casual daytime sipping.
  • Station-to-Sand Convenience: Directly across from Sandringham train station and an easy walk down to the beach.
  • Inventive Cafe Menu: Serves creative breakfast and lunch plates like smoked trout benedict on potato rösti and housemade gnocchi.

  • Welcoming Local Community Hub

    Staff foster an inviting neighborhood feel where regulars are recognized and newcomers are welcomed warmly.

    Great to see the regulars - like me - accept AJ - who is lovely and is invested in Limoncello’s continued success as a “locals”, friendly cafe.

  • Station-Side Bayside Position

    The cafe sits right across from Sandringham train station and steps away from the beach, making quick stops effortless.

    The location is perfect only a 5 five minute walk from the neighbourhood and just across the road from the train station and beach.

  • Quick Commuter Convenience

    Convenient short-term parking outside makes grab-and-go morning coffee and breakfast sandwiches simple on busy commute mornings.

    Popped in for a quick coffee as I have done many times. I only stop if there is a car park outside (15 mins allowed).
