Was expecting this to be a cafe - however, it’s more a shop with a kitchen and two tables. That said - the chap behind the counter made me and my date our breakfast omelettes to perfection, and the food was very cheap. Rather random but brilliant Sunday am breakfast spot before taking a stroll on the beach just a few blocks away.
