Ruby's Diner

This long, narrow cafe just might be the ultimate embodiment of local Bronte: It’s bright, airy, and filled with trendy young families. The paleo-inspired menu has loads of healthy options, which I love, but you must try their Commando smoothie: banana, fresh peanut butter, brown rice protein, and coconut water. Stop it! Ruby’s is only open for breakfast and lunch and there’s always a waitlist—get here before 9 am if you don’t like queues. Their bulletproof coffee—which they do with MCT oil and a scoop of grass-fed organic butter—is also really good. It’ll give you a high that lasts until 3 pm.
