◖ At Betty’s Bohemian Beach Café (Shop 2, 56 Macrossan Street; 07 4099 6995), tables are dotted with posies, shellfilled glass jars and pristine white doilies, while the teal walls are adorned with dreamcatchers. This is shabby chic, tropical style. As for the menu, hipster juices, strong coffees, green breakfast bowls and harissa baked beans make it a favourite spot for brekkie. ◖ As the newest eatery in town, Hemingway’s Brewery (hemingwaysbrewery.com) is getting all the buzz – and deservedly so. Feast on tasty burgers, slow-cooked beef ribs and wood-fired pizza. The marina location makes this an ideal place to spend a few hours, watching boats come and go. ◖ Sassi Cucina e Bar (sassi.com. au) is slick, chic and inviting. This smart Italian offers handmade pastas alongside daily specials featuring local produce. The flavours are clean and simple, just as Italian food should be, and the wine list is a savvy blend of Australia and Europe.
