Scotties Coffee Shop sits right on Marine Terrace in Scottburgh, making it a go-to spot for anyone looking to enjoy a casual breakfast or a relaxed coffee break with a sea breeze. This cafe leans into the laid-back coastal vibe, offering a mix of indoor and outdoor seating that captures the view of the ocean and draws in locals and visitors who want to unwind by the water.

The atmosphere here is unpretentious and easy, with a steady flow of families, holidaymakers, and day-trippers often arriving by bike or car, especially on sunny mornings. Many come to Scotties to take their time over a full breakfast or a toasted sandwich paired with a well-made cappuccino or rooibos tea. The menu balances comfort and local flair, featuring options like scones with cream and jam, a hearty breakfast plate, and unique offerings like livers & chips or the toasted bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich—ideal for a filling start to the day.

Service tends to be friendly without fuss, complementing the chilled setting where you can watch the waves or catch up with friends. The coffee stands out in the lineup, with cappuccinos and the red cappuccino holding particular appeal among regulars. On warmer days, the milkshakes and iced teas add a refreshing element to the experience.

Because it’s positioned within the caravan park area, parking is straightforward, and the venue suits visitors looking for casual dining that still feels connected to the local rhythm—whether you’re stopping in after a bike ride, settling in for breakfast, or grabbing a bite before hitting the beach. The deck seating with ocean views is a highlight and naturally encourages a slower pace, perfect for mornings or early afternoons when the light catches the water just right.

Scotties Coffee Shop fits naturally into Scottburgh’s seaside charm, serving those who enjoy unhurried meals by the coast in a setting where the focus is on good food, approachable coffee, and views that encourage lingering conversations.

We took a bike ride down to Scottburgh for breakfast, this was our first time visiting this coffee shop. Such a beautiful spot right by the beach. Really enjoyed it and our breakfast was good. My husband enjoyed his chocolate milkshake so much he had a 2nd one. Really worth a visit. Will definitely be back.

The Best Breakfast Spot Around! Hands down the best breakfast place I've been to. The vibe is chilled, relaxed, and laid-back—perfect for a slow morning. The sea view is absolutely stunning, truly something you have to see for yourself. The coffee is delicious, and the breakfast tastes like it’s made with love, especially the homestyle bread. A must-visit for anyone who appreciates good food and a peaceful atmosphere.

This little beach side cafe is certainly worth a visit.I stumbled upon it by hearsay and after a cuppa chino and decadent chocolate cake left a very happy man.You are so close to the beach and ocean which just enhances the experience of getting lost in the sound of the sea and bird's.The menu is varied and interesting and has something for everyone.Prices are very reasonable and you are not rushed with your meal as there is plenty of seating.Whether you are a local or visitor this is definitely worth a What a great way to start your day is to be sitting beside the seaside having a delicious breakfast and enjoying the sun and sea view.They also have a Friday night evening with a special on Hamburgers and Pizza which is a great way to end off the week.

The most quaint place on the beach! It's absolutely private and with a breathtaking view! Staff here are super friendly and professional! They're helpful and always willing to accommodate. Food is exceptional and consistent in presentation and flavour! The love they have for children is outstanding. They greet every person that comes in with a smile and love as if you were a regular. The play area is one of the best in the area!!

Awesome place to have a coffee shop experience, litterly on the beach. And it is pet friendly. We had breakfast - toasted bacon, banana and egg for Lizette and chef's omelet for me, rounded off with cuppucino. Then we walked on the beach with our Yorkie.
