Kingston’s best coffee and walking spots
The weather’s warming up, which means the vibes are high and it’s the perfect time to head outdoors. Put a spring in your step (pun intended) by visiting these neighbourhood coffee spots on your next walk.
Nest at Waterways Café
Start your morning right with a stop at Nest at Waterways Café, owned by a local Kingston legend. Enjoy a delicious coffee and homemade treat while soaking in the serenity of the Waterways Lake.
Sand Dune Beach Kiosk
Don’t want to leave your pet behind? Plan your next walk at Edithvale Beach. With designated off-leash areas for your furry friend to play, it’s the perfect pet-friendly beach. Stop at Sand Dunes Beach Kiosk for a coffee and a bite to eat.
Parkdale Beach Café and Kiosk
There’s nothing better than a stroll along the beach…except for a stroll with a coffee in hand. Stop into the Parkdale Beach Café and Kiosk, conveniently located above the foreshore, for a pit stop with a cup of joe and a slice of cake.
Arco Bar
Visit Arco Bar in Heatherton to pick a toastie, bagel, cake or coffee from their ‘grab & go’ cafe area. Once you’re fuelled up, head over to Karkarook Park for a walk along the beautiful Lake Trail. Keep your eyes open for fish, birds and local wildlife.
The Kitchen Container
Nestled in an old shipping container next to the Carrum Beach boardwalk is The Kitchen Container. This accessibility-friendly café is just three minutes away from Carrum train station. So, whether you’re traveling to the beach by car, bike or train, it’s perfectly situated to pick up a takeaway coffee on your journey.
Mordi Canteen
For those who are more artsy than outdoorsy, we’ve got something for you too. Just a stone’s throw away from the Mordialloc Pier is an aesthetic hot spot: The Mordi Canteen. Grab your favourite brew and a tasty meal while taking in the gorgeous local art hung on the walls.
