Manna Haven Cafe

Manna Haven Cafe sits on Jonson Street in the heart of Byron Bay, a much-loved cafe in Australia's favourite beach town. In a relaxed, food-loving town spoiled for cafe choice, it's earned a near-flawless reputation — a strong sign of a place doing the fundamentals exceptionally well, just a short stroll from the beach and the main streets.

The appeal is that combination of quality cafe fare, good coffee and a welcoming, relaxed feel in keeping with Byron's easygoing mood, ideal for a morning coffee, a leisurely brunch or a casual catch-up. Holding your own among Byron's many cafes takes a genuinely good offering, and the near-perfect feedback marks Manna Haven out as a real favourite.

A 4.9 rating from more than 300 reviews is an excellent result and a strong endorsement. Menus, opening hours and offerings change with the seasons, and central Byron gets very busy over weekends and holidays, so it's worth checking current details before a special trip — though for a coffee and a casual bite, it's usually just a matter of dropping in and settling into the relaxed Byron pace.
