Local Press Cafe

Great spot for brunch on a sunny morning. Delicious healthy food, great portion sizes. Would definitely go back.

I stumbled across this cafe, as I was staying nearby, and was absolutely blown away. The staff, the view, the atmosphere and the food/coffee. I couldn't fault this cafe, and you can tell the staff working there love it too. Sitting outside near the water is great, however the interior is decorated so well that it is a hard choice. There is a good selection of food and the coffee is made well every time.

Went for breakfast on a Saturday morning. Decor is very cosy and the staff are extremely nice and helpful. Coffee and food was pretty good. However, the wait time for both was well over 30 minutes. The menu is a bit odd and moves away from your traditional breakfast items. The LP Breakfast (their version of a big breaky) was very good. Worth a try but probably would go elsewhere from now on.

Great healthy breakfasts very popular so be in early!

I am usually not a complainer... but when my friend and I visited Local Press Café, we received really poor service from disinterested staff. I honestly find it hard to remember the quality of the food because the service was so terrible. Felt like there was no real human connection. I've worked in hospitality before - I get it, but it adds so much to a customer's experience if you actually engage and are polite instead of acting like each and every customer is a waste of your time. Later, when a waitress was clearing the table, I asked if she could leave the jar I bought my juice in, so that I could take it home. I was told no, because they usually wash and re-use (which is fine, and good for the environment - but if I could have bought it and taken it away if I didn't eat in, why couldn't I have kept it when I asked?). Would be willing to go back if a friend was interested again with an open mind... but I really hope you guys have sorted out your staffing issues. You have a great location, good flow of customers and such great potential!

Nice fresh food, generous portions tasty white chai tea

Not cheap, but I definitely felt like I got my money's worth. Really nice fresh food (and drinks) and lots of creative recipes used. Great place to go for breakfast.

Zucchini & corn pancake was huge serving (for me) $20 then I added salmon $5. Nice location in the sun & overlooking water. Delightful brunch.

The staff is friendly and the food is decent. The only downside is that the service is extremely slow when it's busy. We are talking about one hour delay after placing the order.

Coffee was good in a great location. The savoury muffin of salmon and sweet corn was so salty we couldn't eat it.
