White ElephantBeach Cafe

Right on the dune above Gnarabup Beach, ten minutes west of Margaret River town, this deck-fronted cafe pairs uninterrupted ocean views — and, in season, passing whales — with a menu that treats plant-based eaters as equals rather than an afterthought. The all-day kitchen works with local produce across breakfast bowls, wraps, salads and burgers, marking vegan and gluten-free dishes clearly; regulars single out the lighter plant-based breakfasts, and reviews return repeatedly to how willingly the counter handles dietary requests. There are no bookings — you walk in, order, and carry your coffee to the timber deck or the sand below. It is one of the region's busiest and best-known beach cafes, open every day, and among the few coastal kitchens where a vegan order arrives without negotiation. A reliable, scenery-led stop for anyone eating plants along the Cape-to-Cape coast.
