   Zaatar And Juice is the budget brunch on this list, built on manoush topped with zaatar, cheese, veggies or meat. Weekend service starts at 7am on Saturday and wraps up at 2pm. Diners single out the zaatar and meat manoush, and the falafel wrap is the fallback for anyone who wants lunch. The outdoor tables suit a sunny morning, and the kitchen handles vegetarian orders without fuss.

   Best for: Budget weekend brunch

2. #2The Heritage Kitchen Garden for a slow weekend breakfast

   At The Heritage Kitchen Garden, weekend mornings centre on the veggie stack, the dish one reviewer picked out most. Sunday hours run from 7:30am to 2pm, and Saturday runs until 9pm, so there is room for a late morning. The specials change often and are kept on a board, so ask what is on before you order.

   Best for: Weekend breakfast and a veggie stack

3. #3Coastal Brasserie for a late brunch by the beach

   $$🐕 Dogs outsideOutdoor seating🌳 Boulevarde Reserve, 3 min walk

   Coastal Brasserie is open until 4pm on Sunday, which gives a late start more room than most cafes here. Crushed avocado with hashbrowns and baked chorizo eggs are the plates diners name for brunch. Little ones have their own menu. The menu moves to dinner on Friday and Saturday evenings, so the same table can serve brunch and a later meal.

   Best for: Late Sunday brunch with beach views

4. #4Nostimo Cafe for an early breakfast and acai bowls

   Nostimo Cafe opens at 6:30am on Saturday and Sunday, earlier than the others on this page. Its acai bowls arrive with banana, strawberry, granola, coconut and peanut butter. The breakfast range covers most early eaters, and regulars point to the service as a reason to come back. Sunday closes at 2pm, so the window for a late breakfast is short.

   Best for: Early weekend breakfast and acai bowls
