Rose Bay Cafe

Best Known For

Rigatoni with prawns, in a creamy truffle oil and garlic sauce, with cherry tomato, parsley and Parmesan.

Rose Bay Café, nestled along Dover Road, is a charming retreat where the rhythm of the ocean meets the hum of a local gathering place. Bathed in soft natural light, its airy interiors are warmed by rustic touches, creating a space that feels both refined and welcoming. The gentle breeze drifts through open windows, carrying with it the scent of saltwater and freshly brewed coffee. Locals gather for easy conversation, while visitors pause to soak in the relaxed vibe. Fuel up for the day ahead with corn and zucchini fritters, tomato, red onion, sautéed spinach, avocado salsa and sweet chilli; stop by later for a grilled lamb pita wrap with iceberg lettuce, tomato, red onion, cucumber, aioli and fries. Perhaps a smoked salmon bagel hits the mark with spinach, cream cheese and capers.
