Front Beach Cafe Overview

Front Beach Café overlooks the breathtaking magnificence of Torquay beach. The sophisticated décor and peaceful ambience greets you, along with the friendly staff.

Dine alfresco style or hold an impressive function offering magical water views. The menu is illustrative of the head chefs diversity and passion for local and seasonal produce. Sample sensational Australian wines whilst savouring the delights of the freshest seafood, tender steaks cooked to perfection and more-ish menu options.

With new owners since December 2007, Front Beach Cafe is certainly a ‘hot' spot amongst local and tourists alike. Front Beach Cafe certainly has the relaxed and ‘beachie' feel to the place. Newly renovated with a chic feel, you can enjoy sitting outdoors in the great sized courtyard overlooking the unspoiled beachfront splendour of famous Torquay or dine inside and still enjoy the views.

The bar is tasteful in design and offers a fabulous selection of both local and interstate wines. If you're a keen surfer you have the best of both worlds, enjoy a meal, a drink, and watch surfing clips in the bar.

Owners Steve & Paula Christou are ‘big believers' in making their customers feel relaxed, comfortable and well-looked-after and their staff will attend to your every need, ensuring you feel right at home.

Chef Ben Pratt brings over 10 years quality experience and has worked in many high calibre restaurants along the Great Ocean Road. Ben continually keeps the menu updated providing a vast array of enticing, flavoursome produce and fresh flavours to customers.

The Front Beach cafe provides the perfect location to hold that distinctive function, such as a special birthday, engagement party or wedding reception; using a marquee outside in the courtyard for the cooler months, without interrupting the spectacular ocean views.

Front Beach Cafe Customer Reviews

Food: Very Good  Setting/Decor: Very Good  Service: Very Good  Value: Very Good

i discovered the front beach 3 months ago. since then i have been back on at least 8 occasions with my wife and kids. I have found the ambience, food, and service fantastic on every occasion. friendly knowledgable staff, great steak, good affordable wine list. well and truely a class above other local eateries which rely upon tourists and not locals to support them. you can tell a great place because always a crowd even in winter, unlike others where they are shut for the night until summer hits. keep up the good work. dan
