About The Old Corner Shop

This Margate corner fixture fuels the morning commute with punchy espresso, warm service, and a lineup of toasted bagels. Before dawn, tradies gather along Victoria Avenue for pre-ordered flat whites and double ristretto lattes, while parents pull in mid-morning to take a breather beside the dedicated toy play area. The kitchen turns out warm blueberry bagels slathered with cream cheese and honey, alongside savory turkey-cranberry-jalapeño and salmon options. The counter glass stays packed with gluten-free banana bread, coconut slices, and quick almond croissants.
