Drift

Nice, atmospheric cafe on the beach. Bustling on Easter Sunday. Excellent coffee and friendly service. Seated and served quickly. Ok value. Easy location after arriving on overnight sail from Geelong. We had eggs Benedict and zucchini pea and quinoa fritters with crispy prosciutto and kale. The prosciutto was not crispy and the meal as a whole was wet, eg wet kale, eggs not drained off well and a touch undercooked for my taste but tasted ok. Chose the fritters because almost everything else on the menu was sourdough heavy, and big thick slices. No lower carb options presented.

The service was excellent. The seafood chowder could have used a bit more fish flavor, but the gummy shark was quite delicious. The desserts were creative! I enjoyed the place and the view was beautiful.

Straight off the Spirit of Tasmania, when coffee is needed, Drift was a great place for that! Melbourne worthy coffee, and their large is actually a large! We ordered eggs Benedict with a side of haloumi. Haloumi was fried which was something a bit different and extremely salty but I really enjoy that. Right on the water, it was also right next to Mersey Bluff lighthouse and we did a really nice walk from Drift to there. Would come back 😊

Great views combined with lovely food. Had the chicken focaccia which was very tasty and the squid salad was cooked perfectly. Will visit again for sure to try a breakfast dish.

Amazing spot for breakfast. Food was amazing, service was friendly and quick, one of the best black coffees I’ve had. Highly recommend

Bedlam. Have visited a few times but wont be rushing back. This place used to be so good but something has changed and it has gone downhill. It wasn’t that busy but staff didn’t seem to know what they were doing, perhaps new? Man taking my order mucked it up and got angry when we tried to ask for it to be corrected, he would not accept that an error had been made. The food we did receive was okay, menu has become a bit boring though. After some great experiences in the past this visit was just well below par.

Went here for breakfast after arriving on the spirit. Was a fantastic place to watch the sunrise. Food was pretty good too.

Amazing meal, could not fault it. Thank you. Good view of the water, such a nice day. The staff were very friendly, attentive and efficient, they also had a good sense of humour. Great meal, good price and nice location, we are coming back for sure.

Seriously please change your website hours says you open till 11 pm but if you not there by 8.30 then one cannot have a meal. Hey Devonport wake up you guys won't survive. Is this island that backward

Very pleasant and modern decor. Relatively extensive menu. Friendly service. Overlooks the Bluff Beach and the moody Bass Strait. Outdoor dining all year round but at its most pleasant in the summer months. A big favourite of mine when I'm in Devonport.
