About The Boy and The Rose

We’re a tiny cafe in North Avoca (but easy to find because we’re the only one here!).

We’ve been operating for nearly 4 years and we have made a conscious effort to keep it all local - from our coffee beans to our food.

We’ve implemented the take 3 movement from day dot, offering kids a free ice block whenever they bring 3 pieces of rubbish off the beach.
We offer our customers 10% off their takeaway food if they bring their own Tupperware container AND 50c off coffees when they provide their own keep cup.
