Book NowAbout Sunny's Margate Beach
Perched directly along the Margate esplanade, Sunny’s pairs crisp Moreton Bay panoramas with relaxed coastal dining. Morning regulars settle onto the breeze-swept balcony for iced lattes, sweet brûlée French toast, or chorizo hash before beach walks. Come afternoon, the scene pivots upstairs to the rooftop terrace—a breezy perch serving chilled rosé and margaritas against unobstructed open-water sunsets. Downstairs runs on an easy walk-up cafe counter, while the evening menu plates tender flash-fried calamari and generous cheeseburgers.
- Panoramic Moreton Bay views: Ground-floor all-weather balcony dining and an open-air rooftop bar frame sweeping water vistas.
- Casual counter-style breakfast: Walk-up counter ordering keeps morning coffee, chorizo hash, and brûlée French toast moving smoothly.
- Sunset rooftop drinks: An elevated rooftop terrace pours chilled wine and cocktails alongside sunset views over the water.
