The Market Cafe

The Market Cafe in Hastings is a slightly chaotic-in-the-best-way kind of café where the vibe is casual and dogs are welcome inside. Great for breakfast, brunch, or sitting down without having to apologise for wet coats or sandy paws after a coastal walk.

The menu covers warm drinks, hearty breakfasts and relaxed brunch plates, so there's plenty to choose from whether you're starting the day or refuelling mid-adventure. A quick check on the best table spots keeps things smooth when you arrive with a dog in tow.

It's the kind of place that works for rainy mornings, post-beach pit stops, or simply sitting down together without the pavement-waiting shuffle. Dogs can come in too, which means everyone stays warm and nobody gets left outside hoping for the best.
