About Odd Captain Cafe & Bar

Odd Captain Cafe & Bar pairs brisk table service with generous breakfasts and a sunny courtyard near the port. When neighbouring kitchens pack down early, the team keeps the burners running for road-weary arrivals chasing a hot feed. Morning crowds lean into thick-cut fruit toast, crisp hashbrowns, and eggs benedict with smoked salmon on Turkish bread. Out back, a leafy beer garden welcomes dogs, strollers, and post-travel catch-ups over iced coffees topped with scoops of ice cream.

  • Accommodating Kitchen Cutoffs: The kitchen routinely stays open past afternoon cutoffs to accommodate late arrivals when surrounding spots have closed.
  • Courtyard Garden: A leafy rear beer garden provides outdoor seating with pet-friendly spaces and baby changing facilities.
  • Attentive Table Service: Diners receive prompt seated table service, avoiding counter queues for breakfast and coffee orders.
