Good value for money. The eggs bene were lovely and the chips nice and crisp. The other patrons said their 'works' Burger was okay. The chicken Burger was tasty and the fish and calamari enjoyable. Milkshakes and coffee pleasant. A bit noisy from time to time as it's situated on a busy street corner but does offer a lovely view across the bay.

It was my first time at serenity cafe but it definitely won't be my last. I had eggs Florentine and it was absolutely beautiful. Great prices on the food. Lovely smiling stuff and great view of the water. An easy parking close by.

Got to experience a cute little high tea here. The staff setup outside for us so that we could bring our pup. They went above and beyond. Food and staff were amazing. They made us feel welcome from arrival. Highly recommended this place for a meal by the beach. Thanks so much for looking after us, we appreciated all of it
