About Rockabye Candy

Steps from Altona Beach and Logan Reserve, this buzzing coastal spot serves generous daytime plates without the usual holiday or card surcharges. Snag a table outside—the patio catches northern winter sun while tucking away from intense summer heat—with your dog resting by your side. Regulars lean into hearty midday orders like pulled pork stacked on a flaky croissant, wagyu burgers, or tropical pancakes crowned with caramelised pineapple and mango sorbet.

  • Beachside and dog-friendly: Welcoming outdoor space opposite Logan Reserve that welcomes pets and sits just two minutes from Altona Beach.
  • No surcharges: Orders avoid unexpected add-ons with zero card processing or public holiday fees.

  • Attentive Care Amidst a Lively Atmosphere

    Prompt, attentive staff maintain great service and atmosphere even when the dining room is packed.

    It was unexpectedly nice to sit outside here on a cold winter’s day as the outdoor area catches the northern sun in parts.

  • Generous Value for Group Dining

    Varied multi-person lunches with high-quality ingredients remain consistently fair in price.

    Great atmosphere and excellent service. Food you can't fault. With 4 people, they were very reasonably priced.
