About Girdlers Café - Avalon

Tucked away in Avalon, Girdlers pairs sun-filtered gum tree deck dining with fresh brunch plates and specialty wellness drinks. Patrons swap standard morning fry-ups for cauliflower shakshuka flanked by roasted potatoes, customizable poke bowls, and light prosciutto crêpes. Gluten-free and vegan adaptations extend across the entire kitchen, while dogs lounge under the covered timber canopy beside fresh water bowls. Mornings finish over spiced cocoa laced with espresso or a smooth oat milk cappuccino.

  • Covered Gum Tree Deck: Canopied outdoor seating surrounded by native gum trees accommodates dogs with water bowls in all weather.
  • Dietary-Inclusive Dining: Dietary-conscious plates feature cauliflower shakshuka, savory crêpes, and poke bowls with dedicated vegan and gluten-free adaptations.

Why Choose Girdlers Café - Avalon

Why Avalon locals and coastal visitors choose Girdlers for wholesome dining and restorative deck gatherings

  • Dedicated Wholesome & Allergen-Friendly Menus

    Girdlers provides tailored vegan, gluten-free, and wholesome options across dishes like Cauliflower Shakshuka, smashed avo, and house-made crêpes.

    Not only are the vegan, and for me, gluten free options, second to none, the oat milk cappuccino and coconut milk hot chocolate are absolutely first rate

  • Crafted Specialty & Wellness Beverages

    Beverages are crafted with specialty care, ranging from organic coffees to coconut matchas and real spiced cocoa with espresso shots.

    Have had multiple drinks here - hot and cold. Food is nourishing and prepared with love. Great for people who are conscious about what they consume.

  • Restorative Coastal Sanctuary

    The setting among coastal gum trees creates an effortless, unhurried space where guests comfortably linger longer than planned.

    This is the kind of place you come for breakfast or lunch and accidentally stay longer than planned. Simple done well. Colourful and meets art.

  • Sun-Filtered Covered Dining Deck

    Outdoor dining on a tree-framed deck features an overhead canopy diffusing coastal sunlight while providing shelter across all weather.

    The outdoor seating is great with an overhead cover that diffuses the light and gives protection from sun and rain.

  • Native Gum Tree Canopy & Pet Hospitality

    Dining flows naturally out into fresh coastal air and native gum trees, warmly accommodating four-legged family members with fresh water bowls.

    Sitting on the deck in the sunshine with fresh air and surrounded by beautiful gum trees is pure pleasure.
