Gorgeous beachside eatery, The Shorehouse in Swanbourne is one of our fave casual dining restaurants, not least because of its stunning beach views. Head chef Oliver Gould has ensured there's a Mediterranean influence on the modern Australian food he's serving up and it is glorious!
But it's not all about dinner here. The breakfast menu is full of both naughty and nice noms—from bacon and egg rolls to chia bowls—and their bloody Mary menu is a thing of beauty. We like the Howling Mary which is loaded with something called death sauce and habanero vinegar! - Urban List
Great park for the children overlooking Swanbourne beach- grab a take-away coffee and head down to the park with the kids, or if you're lucky enough to have slightly older kids grab something to eat on the balcony!
