About The Crate Cafe
The Crate Cafe is born from the vision of two local families. Inspired by the laid back Indonesian culture and atmosphere we wanted to bring that lifestyle to the South Coast.
With unique settings in the heart of local communities, each Crate Cafe destination is a place to escape reality, embrace the outdoors and experience that relaxed holiday feeling.
Forget what you know about cafes and bars…we dare to be different. Our cafes offer something for everyone. From somewhere calm to relax or work to a vibrant spot to eat, drink or dance with friends and family.
Whatever the reason for your visit we promise a friendly face.
