The anchor institution of Kalk Bay at 134 Main Road, Olympia has been credited with bringing serious coffee to the South Peninsula when it opened in 1997, long before the third-wave era. The cafe, bakery and deli is a charismatic neighbourhood landmark where harbour views, handmade breads, and reliably excellent flat whites draw a loyal crowd from across the southern suburbs.
