Sway
Small licensed café on the Corso: toasties, smoothies, brisket burger.
The local take
Sway is a small licensed café at Shop C, 13 The Corso, the pedestrian street that runs from the wharf to the beach. It has about 25 seats, including tables outside on the Corso.
The menu covers breakfast and lunch, with plenty of dairy-free, gluten-free, vegan and vegetarian choices. Reviewers recommend the mushroom toastie, the egg and mushroom roll, the banana, date and peanut butter smoothie, the warm orange loaf with hazelnut brittle and the brisket burger. The coffee gets consistently good reviews.
It's open every day from 6am to 3pm. It's an easy breakfast or lunch on the walk between the ferry and the beach.
